The best pop-culture Halloween costumes for 2021

Bernie to Bridgerton

By: Sara M Moniuszko

The Bernie Meme

The senator's mask, puffy jacket and – most importantly – mitten combo become one of the biggest memes from January's inauguration.

Bridgerton

Don your gloves and gowns! Whether you dress up as sultry Simon in a suit or dreamy Daphne in a dress, your elegant attire is sure to impress.

Bennifer

If a real-life couple is more your style, you and your partner can dress up as the renewed lovebirds Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez.

An Olympian

Relive your favorite moments from this year's Olympic Games by dressing up as your favorite athlete like Suni Lee or Simone Biles. A leotard and a medal around your neck is all you need.

Olivia Rodrigo

Olivia Rodrigo's favorite kind of candy? "Sour." Well, maybe not, but her album cover look is another great costume idea that mostly requires a bunch of stickers on your face.

Harry Styles

A purple feather boa and a plaid blazer. Need we say more? Combine these two items to recreate Harry Styles' 2021 Grammy Awards look.

Kim Kardashian's Met Gala look

Although Kim's look was by Balenciaga, Try tricking out an all-black Morphsuit with a black scarf draping behind you to make a great recreation of this shadowy style. 

Cruella

If dressing like a villain is more your style, try Emma Stone's Cruella from the 2021 live-action remake. A black-and-white wig is the most important piece to recreate this iconic character.
