Celebrities embraced creativity and nostalgia as they unveiled standout beauty and costume looks during Halloween 2025. From tributes to music icons to imaginative interpretations of pop culture, this year’s celebrations featured a wide range of themes and transformations.

Taraji P. Henson drew attention with three Janet Jackson-inspired looks, each referencing a different era from the singer’s music videos. Ciara also honored the Jackson legacy with a Michael Jackson costume. Elsewhere, Halle Bailey recreated Lisa Bonet’s signature style, while Latto channeled Lil’ Kim with blonde crimps and a temporary “NOTORIOUS” tattoo. Coco Jones portrayed all three members of Dreamgirls, complete with voluminous hairstyles.

Some stars opted for more unconventional transformations. Lizzo brought fiction to life by recreating covers of Quan Millz’s urban novels, including a look featuring cheetah-print body art and pink lipstick.

She also appeared in a humorous costume shaped like a Chili’s mozzarella stick. Model Winnie Harlow took a thematic approach by dressing as Neapolitan ice cream, a symbolic nod to her vitiligo.

The weekend highlighted how celebrities continue to use beauty, fashion, and artistry to reimagine themselves during Halloween. Below are 21 of the most notable celebrity Halloween looks of 2025.
