Fleabag
A lot of thought and care went into Fleabag's costumes, especially the jumpsuit. Fleabag costume designer Ray Holman told Cup of Jo, "I remember the moment I saw the jumpsuit. We were in the fitting, and I said, ‘Look, I’m going to show you this, just put it on.’ She put the jumpsuit on and went, ‘Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, this is Episode 1.’ It looked amazing on her." You can wear it yourself this Halloween.
You can also repurpose the jumpsuit to re-create another one of Fleabag's outfits. She wore the jumpsuit with a striped T-shirt when she went to see the priest, which was another iconic look.
You can complete the Fleabag look with your own striped T-shirt.
The Priest
The priest, or "Hot Priest," as he quickly became known all over the internet, was a new addition to Fleabag in Season 2, but he quickly became an icon. Andrew Scott's dreamy portrayal of the priest makes him the heartthrob of the year, and also the perfect choice for a Halloween costume.
Claire
In Season 2, Fleabag's sister Claire (Sian Clifford) got a haircut that made her "look like a pencil." As terrible as the haircut was, it helps to add to a very memorable Claire costume for Halloween. Your wig might need a trim to make it look especially like a pencil, but the green dress will make it the perfect Claire look.
Fleabag's Godmother
Fleabag's Godmother (Olivia Colman) always knows how to make a statement with a scarf or headband of some kind. She went especially big on her wedding day to Fleabag's father
