Celebrities Debut Early Halloween Looks as Trends Take Shape

Published 29 October 2025

Celebrities across music, film and fashion began unveiling Halloween costumes weeks before October 31, 2025, posting elaborately styled looks to social media and attending early-season events that preview how the holiday will play out on the weekend. High-profile examples include Kim Kardashian, her daughter North West and Kris Jenner recreating viral TikTok personalities; Chloe Bailey channeling Foxxy Cleopatra; Jennifer Lawrence appearing in New York as a high-fashion witch; Megan Fox referencing her film Jennifer's Body for an October 26 event; and Victoria Justice hosting a pre-Halloween party in a zombie bride costume on October 21.

Several artists used Halloween to extend promotional programming and festival activity. Janelle Monáe launched a monthlong Wondaween series that spans music, film and games and appeared in prosthetic makeup at a Frankenstein premiere, while also dressing as Beetlejuice and a school girl witch from The Craft for festival-related events. The girl group Katseye staged a multi-outfit homage to Mariah Carey, dressing as looks from different Carey music videos and ending the clip with a cameo from Carey, who said, "This is too cute!"
