Couples Costumes

Couples costume ideas for two

Each half below is a full costume on its own, which matters when plans change at the last minute or two of you turn into four. Three pairings, six costumes, and the accessories come in the box with each one.

The Mens Roman God Costume pairs a white, gold-trimmed toga with a satin cape, gold arm cuffs, a gold metallic belt, and a gold leaf headpiece; chest sizes run 38in to 50in-plus. Opposite him, the Womens Cleopatra Egyptian Costume brings a jewel-belted dress, a jeweled collar, cape, beaded headpiece, and wrist cuffs, in dress sizes 4 to 18.

Swap the ancient world for the 1980s and the Mens 80s Aviator Flight Suit Costume takes over: a green jumpsuit with printed badges and zip details, aviator sunglasses and a dog tag necklace in the box, sized 34in to 50in on the chest. Flying the other seat, the Womens 80s Fighter Pilot Costume is a high-stretch khaki bodysuit with its own aviator sunglasses and dog tags, dress sizes 4 to 18.

Straight out of Sherwood Forest, the Mens Sherwood Forest Thief Costume comes hooded, with a green top, a brown iconic collar, belt, and boot covers, in Medium through XL. His outlaw pair, the Womens Maid Marian Costume, is a floor-length red dress with gold trim, paired with a gold headpiece set with attached red diamante, sized 4 up to 22.

What to look for in a couples costume

Buy against your own body, not your partner's. Men's styles here size on chest measurement and women's on dress size, so the two of you will rarely order the same label. Check what is in the box before you add anything: the three pairings above arrive with their own headpieces, sunglasses, belts, and boot covers, so there is nothing extra to buy. Give them a cold hand wash and an air dry, never a machine wash.

Frequently asked questions

What are good couples costume ideas?

Take one story and split it two ways: a Roman god and an Egyptian queen, two 1980s fighter pilots, or a Sherwood Forest outlaw pair. Each half works on its own too, so neither of you is stranded if the other pulls out.

What's a good duo costume that isn't the usual choice?

Go for a pairing with a story behind it. Our Roman god and Egyptian queen set puts gold accessories and a headpiece on both sides, so neither half ends up looking like an afterthought next to the other.

What's a good last-minute couples Halloween costume?

Pick a pairing that arrives complete, with no assembly at your end. Our pilot pairing brings both sets of aviator sunglasses and the dog tags; the Roman and Egyptian pairing brings the capes, cuffs, and both headpieces. Nothing left to pick up before you head out.

Do you sell costumes for groups as well as couples?

Yes. Our group and family costumes range covers three or more people dressing up together, alongside the couples pairings here.

What size should we order for a couples costume?

Order each costume to your own measurements, not to your partner's size label. Men's styles here run on chest measurement and women's on dress size, so check each product's own size guide before you buy.
