Dressing up is always more fun with a bestie, isn't it? For people who don't have a significant other to dress up with, or those who have a significant other who just doesn't want to dress up, a best friend is another option that is just as much fun. That's especially true for those who are able to hit up some Halloween parties. Everyone knows it's always more fun with a partner in crime.

Matching costumes or just ones that complement each other really well are a wonderful way to take a costume to the next level. It kind of adds to the creativity when there is more than one person involved. And who better than a best friend?
No one, that's who.
If two BFFs share a favorite movie or show, then this is the perfect opportunity to make that come to life. Some couple costume ideas can also be recreated for besties. There are so many creative costume ideas to consider.
Here are 16 BFF Halloween costume ideas made to make the best of friends stand out in a crowd.
SpongeBob & Patrick
There is no more iconic duo than these two! You can turn to Pinterest for ideas if you want to make your own costumes or you can purchase your SpongeBob and Patrick outfits. Either way, this one will turn out super cute!
Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum
There are a ton of friend Halloween costume ideas out there, but these Alice in Wonderland characters are perfect for silly best friends. The bright colors and nerdy charm would be so much fun to rock together!
Daria & Jane
This BFF duo is an easy one to pull off. One of you can wear a red blazer while the other wears a green jacket and round glasses.
Brittany & Tiffany Wilson (Kevin & Marcus)
White Chicks was a hilarious movie and this costume idea would also be super funny for those who have seen the film (which everyone should have). All you need are some heels, skirt/jacket sets, and fake badges. And if you're not blond, don't forget the wigs!
Cher & Dionne
Recreate Cher Horowitz and Dionne Davenport's iconic plaid ensembles from the movie Clueless. You can buy Cher's yellow blazer and miniskirt as a set. Dionne's specific outfits may be hard to find, but you could try a plaid skirt with a red sweater vest over a white button-up. Add knee socks and you'll look totally clueless … in a good way!
Bridesmaid Annie & Bride Lillian
Bring Kristin Wiig's character from the movie Bridesmaids to life with a hot pink, ruffled bridesmaids dress. Buy it new or scour local consignment shops. You can probably find a used wedding dress at a thrift shop for Maya Rudoph's character. But it also appears you could fake it with any white dress and a pink ribbon sash.
Chuck Noland & Wilson
If you've got a willing male pal, he can dress up as Castaway's Chuck Noland with a shaggy fake beard, a wig, and wrecked shorts. Don't forget the FedEx box. For Wilson, use a giant beach ball to make a papier-mâché volleyball. Cut out holes on the top and bottom for your head and legs, and paint on the handprint/face.
Piper & Alex
Who's your favorite Orange Is the New Black duo? Throw on some comfy tan prison uniforms and you've got your girls.
Romy & Michele
Romy and Michele had the best '90s-girl party look. Create the look yourself by taking a couple of cheap pink and blue party dresses, and accessorizing with pink boa trim and a silver lamé star, respectively.
Tina Fey & Amy Poehler
The ultimate SNL "Weekend Update" anchor team has to be Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. And it's a pretty simple costume to pull off. For Amy, shoulder-length blond hair and a gray pantsuit. For Tina, shoulder-length brown hair, dark-rimmed glasses, and a navy-blue pantsuit.
2 Broke Girls
Max and Caroline's waitress uniforms will transform you into these 2 Broke Girls from Brooklyn. Bring some cupcakes along with you.
Minions
Got a trio of friends? You could go as the three stars of the Minions movie. Kevin is the tall one, Stuart has one eye and a ukulele, and Bob is the little guy with a teddy bear. It's pretty easy to find Minion costumes, but you can also make DIY outfits with yellow T-shirts and felt.
Thelma & Louise
Look like this dangerous duo by wearing worn, ratty jeans with a couple of sleeveless T-shirts. For Louise, any dingy old white T-shirt with the sleeves cut off will do. Add a white straw cowboy hat and a blue neck kerchief. For Thelma find a black T-shirt with heavy metal/skull graphic and black sunglasses.
Laverne & Shirley
Aww, check out the Today show's Savannah Guthrie as Laverne De Fazio and Natalie Morales as Shirley Feeney. You could pull off these fun costumes with some vintage skirts and clinging sweaters with matching scarves. Remember to glue on Laverne's trademark monogram with string, felt, or ribbon.
Rockford Peaches
With a sweet Rockford Peaches uniform, you and your friends could be Dottie, Kit, Mae, or Doris from the movie A League of Their Own.
Grady Twins
Come play with us, Danny! Become the creepy Grady twins from The Shining with a pale blue dress, knee socks, and black Mary Janes. Add some pale pink ribbon and splash on some fake blood.
