Empowering Pop Culture Icons to Dress Up as This Halloween

Halloween is finally around the corner! With so much going on at home with family and work, sometimes it’s easy to forget about the fun moments in life, such as Halloween costumes. But don’t worry — we’ve already thought of iconic pop culture Halloween outfits for you to try on.

Let’s keep it real: we love Halloween because it’s a time to relax, get a little silly and be someone — or something — else for one night. This year, the October 31 lands on a Friday, making it that much more exciting to start the weekend on a high note.

So, what are you thinking of wearing this year? From famous Mexican painter and poet Frida Kahlo to the American iconic media personality and businesswoman Kris Jenner, here are five ideas to get your creative juices flowing for next Friday night.

Frida Kahlo

Kahlo is one of the most popular outfits when it comes to celebrating legendary Latina figures. However, when done correctly, the outfit goes beyond commemorating Kahlo. It celebrates the rich Mexican culture that she used to be inspired by. With bright-colored patterns, and a poetic spirit, this costume is one of our favorites during the Halloween season.

Celia Cruz

Cuban singer and icon Celia Cruz is one of the most popular singers of all time thanks to her stunning contributions to genres like salsa, guaracha, and bolero. Also known for her vibrant and flamboyant attire, she’s another iconic pop culture we’d love to see more people dress as.

Selena Quintanilla

Hear us out! There’s a reason Selena Quintanilla is always trendy and talked about. She’s the most iconic Tex-Mex queen that nobody will ever forget – and with reason! Recently, her estate revealed a new upcoming documentary called Selena y Los Dinos that’s streaming on Netflix on November 17. So why not celebrate this achievement by dressing up as her this Halloween? We know Kim Kardashian rocked her signature purple outfit back in 2017.

Beyoncé

Beyoncé deserves all of her flowers. Her recent 2025 Cowboy Carter Tour gave us a lot of Western-influenced costume inspiration. So why not make a full-on costume happen on Halloween?

Kris Jenner

Kris Jenner is one of the most successful and popular businesswomen of the era. With the signature sunglasses and short hair, it would be fun to pretend to be her luxurious self for a day. With a strong vodka martini in her honor!
