Halloween hits different when you roll in with your squad rocking perfectly coordinated costumes. Solo costumes are fun, but when the whole crew shows up in a theme? That’s legendary. People stop you for pics, you instantly win “best dressed,” and the night just feels way more epic.
I’ve had my fair share of group costumes (some flawless, others… let’s just say we tried). So I put together 15 matching group Halloween costume ideas that’ll make your next girls’ night out unforgettable. Whether you’re all about glam, spooky vibes, or just want an excuse to wear sweatpants in public, I’ve got you covered.
1. Spice Girls
If you don’t at least consider this costume, are you even having a girls’ night?
- Why it works: Everyone gets their own character (Sporty, Baby, Ginger, Scary, Posh).
- Pro tip: Don’t overcomplicate it—throw on platform shoes, bold ‘90s outfits, and boom, instant Spice Girls.
Honestly, this one always hits because people immediately start singing.
2. Mean Girls
You can’t go wrong with this one.
- Rock the Plastics look with mini skirts, heels, and pink (on Wednesdays, duh).
- Have one friend go as Damian in a hoodie with sunglasses, and you’ve basically recreated the entire movie.
Ever noticed how quoting Mean Girls all night makes the whole evening 10x funnier? Yeah, that.
3. Barbie Dream Squad
Barbie took over the internet (again), so why not lean into it?
- Pick your own Barbie vibe: Cowgirl Barbie, Rollerblade Barbie, Business Barbie—the options are endless.
- Add sparkly accessories and pink lipstick, and you’re good to go.
This one also doubles as a great excuse to wear glitter. And who doesn’t love glitter?
4. Powerpuff Girls (+ Mojo Jojo if you’ve got a 4th)
You can’t beat a simple, colorful trio.
- Bubbles = blue dress, Buttercup = green, Blossom = pink.
- Throw in knee-high socks and black Mary Janes for the cartoon effect.

Low effort, high recognition—chef’s kiss.
5. Clueless
If you’ve got plaid, you’ve basically nailed this costume.
- Cher = iconic yellow plaid skirt suit.
- Dionne = black-and-white plaid with the hat.
- Tai = flannel + overalls combo.
It’s comfy, nostalgic, and still stylish enough for a night out.
6. Disney Villain Squad
Forget princesses—it’s villain era.
- Ursula, Maleficent, Cruella, Evil Queen.
- Bold makeup and dramatic outfits make this one pop in group photos.
Pro tip: Go a little extra with props (fake staff, cigarette holder, etc.) for maximum effect.
7. Cowgirls (but make it fashion)
Want something easy but Instagram-worthy? Cowgirl squad.
- Cowboy hats, fringe jackets, boots.
- Add glitter makeup and rhinestones for a glam twist.

Bonus: You can actually reuse this outfit for country concerts later. Two birds, one stone.
8. Stranger Things Crew
This one works best if your squad has a mix of personalities.
- Eleven = pink dress and eggo waffles.
- Max = skate gear.
- Dustin = trucker hat.
- Vecna (for your spooky friend) = black bodysuit and creepy vibes.
This costume has variety, so everyone can find something they vibe with.
9. Angels & Devils Mix
Classic for a reason.
- Half the group goes angelic with halos, wings, and white dresses.
- The other half rocks horns, red fits, and maybe a pitchfork.
You can even switch halfway through the night if you’re feeling chaotic. ;)
10. Harry Potter House Squad
Yes, it’s nerdy. But it’s also cute.
- Each girl reps a different house (Gryffindor, Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff).
- Plaid skirts + ties + wands = instant recognition.
Also, let’s be real: most people secretly love shouting spells after a couple cocktails.
11. 2000s Pop Stars
Bring the Y2K vibes back.
- Britney Spears schoolgirl look.
- Christina Aguilera leather chaps era.
- J.Lo velour jumpsuit.
- Beyoncé Destiny’s Child glam.
Everyone gets to be extra, and you’ll live your TRL fantasy for a night.
12. Scooby-Doo Gang
Another easy-but-effective group option.
- Velma = orange sweater + glasses.
- Daphne = purple dress + scarf.
- Fred = preppy look with neck scarf.
- Shaggy = green tee + brown pants.
- Scooby = someone in a onesie, if they’re brave enough.
People will 100% yell “Zoinks!” at you al night.
13. Witches, but High-Fashion
Not the boring black hat situation. Go full editorial.
- Corsets, lace gloves, bold makeup.
- Carry fancy chalices instead of cauldrons.
Think more “witches at the Met Gala” and less “Party City clearance rack.”
14. Flappers from the Roaring ‘20s
If you want glam and comfort, this is a winner.
- Fringe dresses, feather boas, pearls, headbands.
- Bonus if you play up the jazz-era makeup.
FYI, fringe dresses look insanely cool when you’re dancing—IMO this costume is underrated.
15. Classic Horror Movie Icons
Go full spooky if you’re into scares.
- Freddy Krueger (striped sweater + claw hand).
- Jason (hockey mask).
- Ghostface (cape + mask).
- Chucky (overalls + red wig).
It’s more intense, but perfect if your group prefers scaring people over looking “pretty.”
Extra Tips for Pulling Off Group Costumes
1. Coordinate Early
Don’t be that group arguing in the group chat at 6 PM on Halloween night. Decide ahead of time so no one shows up as “random black cat #4.”
2. Add Props
The small stuff makes a huge difference. Wands, boas, wings, hats—they turn “cute outfit” into full-blown costume.
3. Think About Mobility
If you’re bar-hopping, skip costumes that restrict walking, sitting, or bathroom breaks (learned this one the hard way).
4. Make It Your Own
Put a twist on the idea—sparkly villains, neon Spice Girls, gothic Powerpuff Girls. The best group costumes show personality.
Conclusion
Matching group Halloween costumes aren’t just about looking good (though let’s be honest, the Instagram pics will be 🔥). They’re about creating memories with your girls, turning heads, and laughing together all night.
From Spice Girls nostalgia to Barbie glam to creepy horror icons, you’ve got 15 solid options here. The only real question is—which vibe fits your squad this year?
So grab your besties, pick your theme, and own the night. Who knows—you might even get free drinks just for being the most iconic crew in the room. ;)
