11 Last Minute Halloween Costumes for Redheads

Running Out Of Time? We Got You!

halloween

Uh-oh! The clock is ticking down to Halloween night, and you’re without a redhead-inspired costume. Don’t stress, we have just the thing. All of these costumes for redheads can be put together in (about) 15 minutes. These redhead costumes can be assembled in approximately 15 minutes, primarily using items you likely already have. If you’re looking to coordinate with a partner, we also have a few couple’s costumes that will make you both look and feel fantastic. Let’s take a look:

1. Animal costume 

If you have animal ears on hand, creating a costume is quite simple. Just pair them with an outfit in coordinating colors, add face paint or makeup, and you’re all set! If you don’t have ears, you can easily make some using construction paper or by printing designs and attaching them to an old headband. Quick options include a cat, rabbit, mouse, or dog.

2. Misty from Pokemon

This costume is super easy, and you already have the red hair! Pop on a yellow shirt, jean shorts, and a backpack (preferably red or orange), and throw your red hair into pigtails. 

3. Carrot or a Pumpkin

This costume is charming for redheads of all ages. Use construction paper or fabric-orange attire and create a green stem topper for your head to dress. Attach it to a headband, and consider adding face paint for an extra touch!

4. Cady from Mean Girls

In the movie, many of Cady’s outfits are everyday clothing, so you will likely find something suitable in your closet. You could replicate her first day of school outfit with an oversized blue flannel and brown pants, or opt for her red t-shirt and jeans ensemble. Alternatively, if you’re seeking a more stylish option, consider one of her looks from later in the film.

5. Scarecrow

If you have a flannel on hand, try going as a scarecrow! Wear a flannel and jeans or jean shorts and paint your face. Bonus points if you have boots and a hat to go with it.

6. Weasley from Harry Potter 

You can easily dress up as Ron or Ginny Weasley using items straight from your closet. If you don’t have a school uniform, consider their holiday sweaters by attaching a paper letter to an existing sweater, or opt for one of their casual outfits from any of the films.

7. Ms. Frizzle from The Magic School Bus

Depending on your familiarity with the planets, this option may take a bit longer than 15 minutes. Start with a dark blue or black dress and create the planets using construction paper or a printed design. Attach the planets to the dress, curl your red hair, and you’ll be all set!

8. Max & Roxanne from A Goofy Movie

According to recent Google data, this is one of the most famous couple costumes and is pretty simple to assemble. One can wear a teal shirt, shorts, and white sneakers, while their partner can don an orange or red hoodie and jeans. Consider adding face paint to complete the look.

9. Kim Possible & Ron Stoppable from Kim Possible

Another straightforward redhead costume that has seen a surge in searches is Kim and Ron from Kim Possible. This choice is remarkably straightforward for redheads. Simply pair green bottoms with a black top, and you’re ready to go. Have your partner, portraying Ron, wear gray bottoms and a black top. Complete the look with black gloves, a belt, and any gadgets you want to add.

10. Donna & Eric from That 70s Show

It appears that having a flannel in your wardrobe can go a long way on Halloween night. You can easily emulate any of Donna’s outfits from That ’70s Show, such as her flannel and jeans ensemble, while having your partner dress as Eric. If you’re not accustomed to ’70s fashion, you can likely find suitable items at a thrift store or perhaps even in your parents’ closet.

11. Mavis & Johnny from Hotel Transylvania

If you’re looking for a fun couples costume this Halloween, Mavis and Johnny from Hotel Transylvania are a great choice! For Mavis, a simple black dress paired with a dark choker and a striking black wig with a blue streak will capture her look perfectly. You can easily find these items at a thrift store or in your closet. For Johnny, opt for a bright, colorful Hawaiian shirt or a graphic tee with casual jeans. Throw in a red beanie and some fun sunglasses, and you’re set. This duo is easy to put together and ensures a night full of laughs and great photo ops.
