Hilariously “Boo-tiful” Couples Costumes & Where to Snag Them
Ah, Halloween – that magical time of the year when you can dress up as anyone (or anything) you like in couples costumes. And if you’re paired up, it’s twice the fun! But let’s face it, not every couple wants to go the cliche route of Batman and Catwoman or peanut butter and jelly (although classics for a reason!). For those looking to raise some giggles instead of spookiness, this list of hilarious couple costumes is for you!
1. Netflix and Chill a natural at couples costumes
What You Need: One person dresses as a Netflix logo (either a red shirt with the white logo or a DIY cardboard cutout) and the other dons a winter jacket or robes and holds an ice pack. It’s topical, humorous, and you’re sure to get a few knowing chuckles.
Where to Buy: Most print or custom t-shirt shops should help with the Netflix part, while thrift stores can often provide a low-cost winter coat for the “Chill”.
2. Taco ’bout a Match!
What You Need: One dresses up as a giant taco, the other as a hot sauce packet. It’s a foodie match made in heaven!
Where to Buy: Costume stores or online marketplaces like Amazon often have a great variety of food-themed outfits.
3. Soap & Loofah couples costumes
What You Need: One person as a bar of soap, and the other as a brightly colored loofah. It’s a cheeky nod to those couple’s shower routines.
Where to Buy: Check out costume-specific websites, or for the DIY types, craft stores can provide the materials for the loofah, and the soap can be made using a large cardboard box and paint.
4. Error 404: Costume Not Found
What You Need: Buy two plain white t-shirts. On them, print “Error 404: Costume Not Found”. This one is for the couples who want to participate but keep it minimal.
Where to Buy: Any basic clothing store for the white tees. Use fabric markers or iron-on letters for the message.
5. BLT – Bacon, Lettuce, &… Twerk?
What You Need: One person dresses as bacon, another as lettuce, but instead of tomato… add a quirky twist with a Miley Cyrus ‘twerking’ outfit.
Where to Buy: Most Halloween shops will have bacon and lettuce costumes. As for Miley, think a foam finger and quirky sunglasses.

- Amazon: Can you think of anything simpler than click and get?
