Dressing up as your favorite celebrity is a Halloween tradition beloved by many — including other celebrities. This October, A-listers like Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, and Beyoncé looked to their fellow icons for costume inspiration. Whether they were headed to a star-studded party or a Halloween photoshoot, these celebrities were dressed to impress.
In the past, many celebs have been inclined to go all out for Halloween by embracing the world of elaborate prosthetics (here’s looking at you, Heidi Klum). While that’s still the go-to for some stars like Klum and Alix Earle, others have taken a more understated approach to the festive holiday, channeling the memorable celeb moments and characters that came before them.
From EmRata embodying J.Lo to Ciara dressing as Naomi Campbell, there are plenty of celeb-inspired celebrity Halloween costumes this year. Here are some of the most popular (and elaborate) ones so far.
