Lupita Nyongo as Dionne from Clueless
Rocking a black and white plaid two piece, a red cardigan, and Dionne Davenport’s signature nose ring, Lupita captured our hearts with this on trend 90s Halloween costume. The Black Panther queen transported us back to the '90s classic Clueless in true y2k style, even holding the chunkiest of bejewelled cell phones to really nail Dionne’s trademark look. Her Halloween hair is styled in intricate box braids with a garish black and white top hat. Can anyone top this? As if!
Kendall Jenner as a Fembot from Austin Powers
This Halloween we’re feeling Groovy Baby! Kendall Jenner would certainly impress the 'International Man of Mystery' with her Austin Powers approved Fembot look. Appearing in Austin’s debut film, the deadly seductive ‘fembots’ are lingerie clad characters designed to kill. Kendall looks pretty in pink with a sheer fluffy nightgown and oodles of sex-appeal. Her Halloween hair is styled in a delightfully voluminous blonde beehive, a signature swinging sixties hairstyle. I guess the only question to ask is… Does she make you randy?
Bella Hadid and The Weeknd as Beetlejuice and Lydia
Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Looking for a celebrity approved Halloween couples costume? Bella and The Weeknd deliver just that with a spot-on interpretation of Lydia and Beetlejuice in their 2018 couple’s costume. Tim Burton’s 1988 horror-comedy stars Winona Ryder as goth teen Lydia Deetz, which Bella portrays perfectly. Wearing a bespoke red tulle dress, flowing veil, and matching gloves, Bella’s celebrity Halloween costume is to die for. Literally. Her shoulder length Halloween hair is coloured jet black, with a spiky fringe and punky half up do.
Anok Yai as Storm
This X-Men approved look is sure to take this Halloween by storm. Anok Yai dressed as the weather goddess herself, Storm, for her 2019 celebrity Halloween costume.

This weather-influencing Halloween costume is sure to electrify those around you.
Cardi B as Cruella DeVille
If she doesn’t scare you, no evil thing will. The puppy-poaching, stylishly spotted queen in back, and we have Cardi B to thank. In 2017, the RnB rapper looked to the Disney classic for a Celebrity Halloween Costume that paid homage to the iconic dalmatian-loving villain. Pairing a beaded black top and velvet pants with a gigantic black and white fur coat – of course darling - she perfected the look with a half-white, half-black wig and Cruella’s trademark cigarette holder. Just be careful not to bring your dog this Halloween.
"The '90s was all about a natural body and bounce without looking overdone or too structured," explains the Franck Provost team, Australia's number one rated hair salon. "Stay away from words like flat and smooth. The more volume the better."
Kylie Jenner (Again) as Xtina
Kylie donned Xtina’s iconic look back in 2016. The celebrity Halloween costume that sets the internet alight to this day, this top-rated Christina Aguilera circa “Dirrty” look is bang on trend for 2021’s y2k resurgence.
