The best plus-size Halloween costumes to shop for 2024
Get Halloween party ready with these fab curvy costumes 👻🎃
Plus-size Halloween costumes aren't always the easiest to find... Some brands (disappointingly) simply stop at “straight sizes” come spooky szn, while those that do offer curve options seriously misjudge the balance between sexy and frumpy. Not to mention the general difficulty of spotting something fab from the literal sea of products available online. But curvy girls want to get in on the costume fun, too!
Luckily, you'll be glad to hear that if you're planning on buying a banging outfit for an upcoming Halloween party, we've got your back. We've done the hard work of scouring the internet and allllllll the shops to find some amazing costume options that are guaranteed to turn heads.
From seriously scary 'fits for those who like to go authentic come October 31st, to classic costumes like Cher from Clueless and Wonder Woman (hey, if it's good enough for a celebrity Halloween costume – we're looking at you Kim Kardashian and Kendall Jenner – then it's good enough for us). We've also got you covered with easy options to sort last-minute and pieces that can easily transform into Halloween outfits with the right accessories, but will also work in your wardrobe year-round. Think of it as sustainable shopping.
The best part? All our options come in a size range that makes them curve-friendly. Music to our ears! Without further ado, keep scrolling to shop the best plus-size Halloween fancy dress looks for 2024.

Why is it that Wonder Woman costumes always come with the teeniest weeniest hotpants? If you don't fancy galavanting around in your knickers on October 31st, Rubie's flirty metallic mini skirt and velvet corset is ideal.

Trick or treat just got a whole lot more fun thanks to this Nineties-tastic, Clueless-inspired costume. Cher would approve.
With the release of Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders on Netflix earlier this year, you're bound to see plenty of pom poms out and about on October 31st. Plus, the zombie cheerleader is a classic Halloween trope.
Add a pair of cat ears and draw on some whiskers with an eyeliner pencil and voilà, you're a cat!
This dark, sultry twist on Little Red Riding Hood doesn't look like she'd take any sh*t from any wolves – and we're into it. This blood red dress comes with a lace-up basque overlay and dramatic hooded cape. Now all you need is a basket bag.
Channel that on-trend '70s feeling (yes, we're still obsessed with Daisy Jones & The Six!) with this groovy Halloween 'fit. We'd style it with a pair of Mary Janes or white knee-high boots for even bigger retro vibes.
If you've left sorting out a costume until the last minute (guilty), look no further than this Beetlejuice tee that references the long-awaited Beetlejucice Beetlejuice sequel released last month.
Morticia Addams is a Halloween go-to for a reason. We love this plus-size ‘Temptress’ dress, with its sweetheart neckline, dramatic fluted sleeves and mysterious AF hood.

It wouldn't be Halloween if someone didn't dress up like a Playboy bunny – and given as this set goes up to size 3X, I think it might be your time.
In our minds, Medusa was not as cool as this... But apparently at Halloween, she turns from terrifying to tantalising, if this Greek-inspired costume is anything to go by. Just add snake-like curls and gold gladiator sandals.
Halloween Costumes Women's Plus Size Kansas Girl Costume Dress
With the release of Wicked next month, we're predicting plenty of The Wizard of Oz-related costumes this Halloween.This ‘Kansas Girl’ costume is available in sizes 1- to 7-x, but just remember that even dressed like this, clicking your shoes won't get you home – so make sure you've pre-booked a cab.
Pirates of the Caribbean + Victoriana vibes = the Wicked Wench, apparently. Pair this sassy 'fit with some wide-calf knee boots to complete the look.
The Mad Hatter, but make it fahhhhhh-shun. This super-detailed outfit comes with a full-skirted dress (the tulle petticoat adds extra volume), a belted velvet jacket, bow tie and a clock motif top hat. So. Good.
