For some, Halloween is chance to mask your identity and become something (or someone) you’ve only imagined of being in your dreams. For others, it’s a time to put on those competitive boots and get people talking about the most outlandish and creative garbs.
 
This All Hallows Eve is sure to see unique ideas pulling from everything that had the net buzzing. Whether it be the latest TikTok sensations, innovative albums like Cowboy Carter, music moments like “BBL Drizzy” or unforgettable celebrity interviews — there’s def enough motivation this year to come up with something to wear.
So, for those who didn’t start their Halloween plans months ago and are frantically searching “2024 costume ideas that are sure to win a contest,” don’t fret, we got you covered. Staying ahead of the curve, let’s dive into 16 moments from this year that are sure to make this Halloween unforgettable — all in the name of fun.
 

Drake – “BBL Drizzy”

Following the expansive, on-wax beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, there will most definitely be those who will want to reflect on the rap feud through costume.
Apparently, Fashion Nova Men was already thinking the same, as they released a “BBL Drizzy” costume accessory last month, with a model resembling Drake in his “8am In Charlotte” music video.
The “BBL Drizzy” costume refers to the Metro Boomin diss-beat that was created with the tag, after feuding with the Toronto icon. This costume may just be a little too insulting.

“Raygun” Olympic Breakdancer

Perhaps, Rachel “Raygun” Gunn’s performance at the Paris Olympics has been the most humorous and talked about moment of 2024. The dancer competed in the inaugural breakdance competition (which probably won’t return because of her), and bombed.
Gunn hit many unconventional moves, including a kangaroo hop — which was perceived more as a mockery of the Hip-Hop element, verses a routine that included traditional moves. The Australian athlete didn’t score a single point during the inaugural competition.
The “Raygun” look will surely be a hit this All Hallows Eve with a simple green and yellow track suit and hat — don’t forget the moves!

Katt Williams

This Halloween, there’s sure to be many versions of Katt Williams running around. The comedian and actor can be dubbed the “Godfather of exposure” as his viral interview with Shannon Sharpe seemed to set the tone for the rest of the year. Williams’ sit-down with Sharpe called out many comedian greats including Steve Harvey, Cedric The Entertainer and others — leading more guests to come on Club Shay Shay and expose other folks.
Williams’ look of a black and grey skully, Fendi-collar jacket, black t-shirt and compass chain can be achieved with some creativity.

Sean “Diddy’ Combs Getting Arrested

Although there is a very serious matter happening with Sean “Diddy” Combs regarding multiple sexual abuse allegations against him, his downfall surely won’t stop someone from dressing as the disgraced music mogul this year.
As Halloween brings out the most sinister of costumes, someone might perhaps dress as Diddy when he was arrested in New York for his crimes, where he wore a long coat, white pants and dark shirt.

As we all await the outcome of the 2024 presidential election between Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, it’s undeniable that their first debate against each other was nothing short of entertaining. Both Trump and Harris made several face gestures showing how they felt about one another’s thoughts, while dressed in their most presidential attire.
Trump’s costume is an easy one this Halloween, as it only requires a navy blue suit, red tie and tanned skin. For Harris, a tailored suit, heels and silk press would do the job!

Snoop Dogg At The 2024 Olympics

Snoop Dogg is truly living his best life this year as he’s had a plethora of opportunities including being an ambassador at the 2024 Olympics in Paris. Snoop provided a ton of looks at the Paris games with his various jobs he tended to.
The West Coast legend was tapped to carry the torch ahead of the opening ceremony; swim with Michael Phelps; cheer on the USA women’s gymnastics team; offer commentary as an NBC correspondent; join in on weightlifting; play tennis; and be a part of the equestrian dressage routines. He also had a chance to Fence with USA’s Miles Chamley-Watson.
Snoop’s Olympics costume could be an easy ensemble to put together, as you just need long locs, shades, your most patriotic gear, and of course, a joint.

Kendrick Lamar and/or Drake

Dressing up as Kendrick Lamar or Drake this Halloween can be a playful nod to their long-standing rivalry, which has sparked plenty of conversations and debates amongst their fans. Now, of course there may be some who just want to poke fun at the rap stars, as others may just be looking for a viral moment on the gram.
Kendrick created a few possible looks from his “Not Like Us” video with his hat titled to the side, hoodie, quarter-length shorts, long white sock and slip-ons. It also wouldn’t hurt to add a hopscotch cutout. For Drake, he’s switched up his style with colorful hair-bows and clips, as well as a silver grill in his mouth.
The two will be popular choices for a Halloween costume, as there are still debates over who won their musical quarrel.

Mrs. Netta and Mr. Charles

The TikTok sensations responsible for everyone saying, “Charles your lunch is ready!” will be a hit this Halloween as they’ve made waves on and off the creative app. The LGBTQ couple first started on TikTok with videos of Mrs. Netta cooking various meals for her beau Mr. Charles, and have since glowed up both aesthetically and financially.
The two now call themselves “social media icons,” which has not sat well with many of their day one fans, as some have dubbed them “Hollywood.” The pair has also both received cosmetic work including a BBL for Netta and ab-etching for Charles.

Shannon Sharpe

Aside from Diddy making headlines for serious allegations, it has been the year of Shannon Sharpe. The retired NFL champ-turned-media man has had some of the most explosive interviews of the year on his Club Shay Shay show, including his sit-downs with Katt Williams, Mo’Nique and others.
Sharpe has truly become a household name and definitely a contender for Halloween costumes this year. All a person would need to complete the look is a microphone, glasses, earpods, muscle shirt and fitted jeans.

Taylor Swift And Travis Kelce

Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce caused much conversation this year when they came out as a couple ahead of the 2024 Super Bowl. Swift’s presence within the NFL seemingly displaced attention from the Kansas City Chiefs player to her, as she attended many of the games as well as the biggest night in football.
Couples are sure to have a field day with this pair, as there are so many looks they could choose from besides a football jersey and signature red lip.

This year saw much of Kanye West‘s wife, Bianca Censori, half-naked at many of their outings. Censori has been spotted in some of the most outlandish, but questionably fashionable ensembles, such as a look where she holds a pillow over a sheer bodysuit. Other outfits have included her triangle cut one-pieces exposing her backside and fur tunic top with just a g-string.
More than likely, women will be dressing up as Censori this year, and to add flare, just maybe they will add their own personal Kanye West.

Reesa Teesa made a splash on social media when she went viral for her 52-part TikTok storytime chronicling a marriage she had with a “pathological liar” nicknamed “Legion.” Reesa neé Tareasa Johnson’s storytelling was so good, that viewers became invested in her not only as a content creator, but as a public figure.
For Halloween, a costume homaging Reesa’s humorous and unbelievable story would be iconic, as the star has gone on to sign with the Creative Artists Agency (CAA) for talent representation. The agency also houses Cardi B, A$AP Rocky and more. Someone could possibly pull off her honey blonde tresses and black turtle neck, as well as her ex-husband’s black skully cap, white tee and beaded necklace.

Simone Biles and/or Jordan Chiles

The Paris Olympics witnessed Team USA besties Simone Biles and Jordan Chiles both receive medals this year — with Biles scoring four (three gold-medals and one silver).
Chiles on the other hand, initially scored a bronze medal after her coach submitted an inquiry—which was later revoked due to the Romanian Gymnastics Federation filing a complaint with the Court of Arbitration for Sport. The Romanian Federation claimed Chiles’ inquiry was made after the one-minute deadline, resulting in her being stripped of her bronze.
Although Team USA appealed the decision to no success, many have come out in support of Chiles, such as her teammates, Flavor Flav who gifted her a bronze clock necklace, and others. Dressing up as Biles and/or Chiles would be a great way to homage both athletes who made their mark this year at the Olympics.
