Dearest gentle reader, you already know what time of year it is—and no, I’m not talking about the social season. Nope, it’s spooky szn, folks, which means you have mere weeks left to put together the perfect Halloween costume. And if you’re not sure what to be yet, why not take inspiration from one of the biggest shows on Netflix? With Bridgerton season 4 in the works, there’s no better time to don a Bridgerton costume and spend the night dressed like your fave character. But the question is: Who should you be? And where the heck can you find a Regency-era ball gown?
Here’s the thing: You could throw on any floor-length dress with a high-waisted bodice and a pair of opera gloves and call it a day. But if you’re looking to dress like a specific Bridgerton character, I’ve got plenty of shoppable options for you. Whether you’re going out solo, dressing up with your S.O. or bestie, or trying to find a look for your group of three (or more!), read on for all the best Bridgerton-inspired costumes that you can get right now—but don’t wait, ’cause October 31 will be here before you know it!!
Daphne Bridgerton Halloween Costume
Listen, I know she hasn’t gotten much screen time since season 1, but the oldest Bridgerton sister is still an icon in my book. To copy her style, you just need a blue empire-waist dress and her trademark micro bangs (and for bonus points, you can get your boo or BFF to dress up like Simon Basset).
Penelope Featherington Halloween Costume
In season 3, Penelope (aka Lady Whistledown) ditches her muted yellow and pink dresses for darker greens, which quickly becomes her signature shade. Between the new wardrobe and her switch from updos to barrel curls, Pen really hit her style peak—and IMO, her season 3 look is the best one to take on for Halloween.
Kate Sharma Halloween Costume
Kate’s style is best characterized by jewel-tone palettes and a touch of desi flair, and I think this purple number is one of her very best ‘fits. Don’t forget to add some gold jewelry to accessorize!
Eloise Bridgerton Halloween Costume
Just like Eloise herself, the second eldest Bridgerton sister has a playful, quirky style, including lots of bows and ruffles—and ofc, you can always carry around a book so everyone really gets what you’re going for.
Lady Danbury Halloween Costume
No matter the occasion, you can always expect to see the formidable Agatha Danbury rocking unique color combinations and statement accessories (which usually include a top hat and walking stick).
Cressida Cowper Halloween Costume
Whether you love her or hate her, there’s no denying that Cressida has ✨style✨. Tbh, Cressida’s gowns are flamboyant enough to rival the Queen’s…and can we just talk about her wild updos?
Francesca Bridgerton Halloween Costume
Francesca is a bit of a wallflower (and pretty much Belle from Beauty and the Beast IRL), so it’s no surprise that her dresses and jewelry of choice tend to be very demure, very mindful.
Queen Charlotte Halloween Costume
She! Is! The! Moment! If you’re planning on dressing up like Her Majesty, you’ll need a gown with a dramatic silhouette and a glitzed-out statement necklace (not to mention a gravity-defying wig).
Prudence and Philippa Featherington Halloween Costume
I may be alone in thinking this, but personally, I think Penelope’s older sisters are the best part of the show—and there’s no better duo to take on if you want to coordinate costumes with your best friend (or real-life sister!). Remember: the gaudier, the better!
Anthony, Benedict, and Colin Bridgerton Halloween Costume
Has there ever been a more iconic trio than the Big Three? Nope, probs not. I’m a Bridgerton brothers stan forever.
