Are you ready for Halloween?

If you're still stuck on what to dress up as this year, allow some of 2019's best TV show and movie characters to inspire your choice.

Are you a Stranger Things fan? If you've already channeled Eleven in the past, try the Scoops Ahoy uniform that newcomer Robin wears throughout the show. If you’re not into being overtly costume-y, Margot Robbie’s portrayal of Sharon Tate in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood gave us ‘60s outfits that can be worn IRL outside of the holiday.

Ahead, browse through the rest of ET Style’s top picks for Halloween costume ideas and shop the clothes and accessories you need to transform into your favorite character for a night.

Maddy Perez, Euphoria 

Maddy Euphoria HBO matching set
HBO

The vixen of the boundary-breaking Gen Z HBO hit, Euphoria, played by rising actress Alexa Demie, had everyone obsessively Google searching her trendy matching sets. This color-blocked woven ensemble especially caught our attention for its nostalgic, '90s Clueless vibes. It's not a complete Euphoria look without daring eye makeup -- plenty of graphic liner and sparkles.
