Halloween 2015: The 12 BEST Celebrity-Inspired Costume Ideas

1. Taylor Swift & The Bad Blood Squad

So 2015 was the year that Taylor's 'Bad Blood' music video gave us serious #SquadGoals, so it HAS to be the year that we recreate the attitude and general badass-ery at Halloween, right?

2. "The Dress"

One sure fire way to wind up EVERYONE is to ask them what colour they thought "the dress" was... Well now you can prove that it's actually black and blue (what do you mean you can see white and gold?!) by wearing 2015's most hated trend! (Picture: Twitter)

3. Left shark

Forget about The Dress for a second, back in February it was all about Left Shark! The poorly timed backing dancer during Katy Perry's epic Superbowl performance became a worldwide hit. It's TOTALLY acceptable to rock up wearing a giant shark outfit in 2015, and for added authenticity you don't even have to rehearse your dance moves! (Picture: Getty)

4. Kim Kardashian's Paper Magazine Cover

If one person could ACTUALLY #BreakTheInternet, it's Kim Kardashian! While SHE wont' be rocking this look right now (the champagne glass would be balanced on her baby bump), you could totally recreate this iconic shoot with a bin liner, two scatter cushions and a lot of sellotape.

5. ANYTHING Miley Cyrus wore at the MTV VMAs

Oh Miley... There are SO many iconic looks of yours we could choose this year, but we've narrowed it down to just one event - the MTV VMAs 2015. Whether you want to dress LOUD, be a rainbow or get your bits out, Miley's stint at hosting the iconic music event leaves you with SEVERAL options. (Picture: Getty)

6. Stella Carlin from Orange Is The New Black

Okay, so when Ruby Rose suddenly appeared in OITNB we suddenly had a new girl crush (don't lie, you did too!) - and now she's hosting the MTV EMAs this month with Ed Sheeran she's hot property! So get your best prison scrubs, sleeve tattoo and slick your hair and you're bound to look as hot as inmate Carlin! (Picture: Netflix)

7. Bruno Mars in the 'Uptown Funk' video

So it's safe to say that Mark Ronson & Bruno Mars' hit 'Uptown Funk' has been the BIGGEST track of the year, and we're sure that if you raid your local charity shop you can knock up a pretty convincing outfit. The only downside to choosing to go as Bruno over Left Shark is that you WILL have to rehearse your moves...

8. Taylor Swift in the 'Blank Space' video

We know we've already suggested one TayTay inspired look, but bear with us! If you're wanting to scare people instead of just intimidate them, all you've gotta do is get your psycho on a la 'Blank Space'! Plus let's be honest, all it takes is a little smeared make-up and the ability to un-focus your eyes a little bit...

9. Katniss Everdeen

All good things must come to an end, and this year J-Law will be hitting the big screen as badass Katniss Everdeen for the very last time! So get your bow & arrow ready, stick on your Mockingjay pin and practice your crying. May the odds be ever in your favour! (Picture: Lionsgate)

10. Pablo Escobar from Narcos

Another one for the guys... If Narcos has taught us anything, it's that being the bad guy is cool. Also, if you don't quite have Pablo Escobar's bank balance, you can just raid your dad's wardrobe and look just as authentic! Bonus points for the moustache, too! (Picture: Netflix)

11. Lady Gaga

Let's be honest, there are even more Gaga looks to choose from that you could go as Mother Monster every year for LIFE and never re-use an outfit! Our pick from her 2015 wardrobe HAS to be this bizarre sheer/feathers combo. (Picture: Rex)

12. Madonna's iconic BRIT Awards outfit

When you think back to this year's BRIT Awards, you can't help but think of Madonna. Was it her raunchy matador outfit? Was it her sexy backing dancers? No, it was when she stacked it down the stairs after being tugged backwards by her cape. Whilst normally it would be frowned upon to dress up as an OAP that fell over, you totally have our approval to don your bull-fighter outfit and recreate the unforgettable moment on every flight of stairs you come across!
