It’s just about that time again. As the cool fall air blows in, it signals not just the end of the summer, but the upcoming Halloween holiday! For some, this is their time of year — time to get creative with unique Halloween costumes. For others, it’s time to head to the closet, where yearly, classic October costumes are stored (we know that you still have those cat ears stored away). But, for many of us, Halloween means a last minute scramble to find good Halloween costumes that are affordable, comfortable—and, let’s face it—something that you might actually want to wear again.
So, instead of endlessly scrolling through Amazon looking for costume inspiration, we’ve rounded up a few of our favorite (and affordable!) picks for Halloween. Whether it’s easy Halloween costumes for men, women’s costumes, funny, scary, simple, sexy—or anything in between—we’ve got you covered with some of the best Halloween costumes on Amazon.
Women’s Halloween Costumes
Dressing up solo doesn’t have to be boring! Even though sometimes it may feel that a group costume is the only inspiration that you can find online, there are plenty of unique, standalone Halloween costumes you can wear this season. No assembly required!

When You Want to Smash Gender Roles and Start a Movement
Rosie the Riveter was part of a campaign started during World War II to encourage and recruit women to join the workforce as the war left many positions—previously held by men—vacant.

When You Know Where the Speakeasy Is But You're Not Tellin'
The Roaring Twenties was a time of revolution after World War I. Known for their freedom and “immoral and outrageous” behaviors, these American women, coined “Flappers,” pushed back on gender stereotypes and discrimination by doing things that were typically only done by men. Little did they know, they were instrumental in removing barriers for economic, political and sexual freedom for women.
