Nothing says "look at me" like the bold, unapologetic energy of Aries, and who better to embody that than Mariah Carey (also born under this Fire sign) as Jessica Rabbit? "I am not bad, I'm just drawn that way."

With her sheer confidence and magnetic charm, this look captures the spicy essence of this Mars-ruled sign, who is always ready to steal the show. Add a splash of red — the color of Mars — and you’ve got a costume that commands attention like no other.

Taurus: Sandy Olsson from Grease

Taurus loves a good classic, and Gigi Hadid's take on Sandy from Grease perfectly embodies this Earth sign's timeless elegance and grounded energy. Governed by Venus, Taurus craves beauty and stability, making Sandy’s classic “girl-next-door” look an ideal match. 

However, much like Taurus’ depth and passion, Sandy’s character also reveals a bold, sultry side at the end of the film. Hadid (a fellow Taurus) also proves that the most grounded signs can have a captivating and rebellious side to them.

Gemini: Fiona from Shrek

Heidi Klum’s iconic transformation into Fiona is pure Gemini energy: playful, unexpected and all about duality. Channeling both the beauty and the beast in one costume, it's no surprise that Klum is a fellow Gemini and true chameleon.

This Mercury-ruled sign is a master in the art of versatility, and Fiona's character resembles Gemini’s ability to embrace its dual nature, shifting seamlessly between an ogre and fairy tale princess. This Air sign never ceases to keep the world guessing.

Cancer: Elle Woods from Legally Blonde

Sweet, loyal and endearing, Cancer will always bring warmth and nostalgia to the function, and fellow Cancer (Mindy Kaling) understood the assignment, channeling her Cardinal spirit through her take on Elle Woods. What, like it's hard?

Governed by the moon, this Water sign is often admired for its innate sensitivity and intuition, but much like Elle Woods, Cancers are unstoppable and tenacious despite their soft exterior, making this an ideal costume choice.

Leo: Zombie

There's nothing Leo loves more than the spotlight, and no one's ever made a gory zombie look more posh than Demi Lovato. Born under this regal Fire sign, Lovato's playful yet extravagant approach to her zombie costume reflects Leo's fearless spirit.

The Sun also rules this Fixed sign, so being a showstopper comes with the turf. Also, who says you can't embrace the dark side while still keeping it theatrical and glamorous?

Virgo: Charlie Chaplin

Virgo, with their meticulous eye for detail and love for minimalism, finds the perfect fit in Blake Lively’s DIY take on a black-and-white film character like Charlie Chaplin. As a Virgo herself, Lively brings out the earthy, practical and poised nature of her sign, embodying the quiet charisma and humor of Chaplin with her mercurial precision.

This Earth sign loves a well-thought-out and refined approach, and the It Ends With Us star's decision to tackle a black-and-white film actor with a DIY touch is classic Virgo. "What's black and white and lively all over," she brilliantly captioned on her Instagram post.

Libra: Mermaid

Governed by the love planet Venus, Libra's are known for their irresistible charm and romantic ideals, which go hand-in-hand with Halsey’s otherworldly mermaid look. A fellow Libra, Halsey channels her Venusian essence and love for aesthetics with this eerie yet whimsical mermaid costume.

Libra is, after all, always striving for balance and harmony, resembling a mermaid’s haunting beauty. Just like it can lure sailors with its siren songs, those born under this Venus-ruled sign are known to enchant those around them with their beauty.

Scorpio: Ursula from The Little Mermaid

Intense, mysterious and undeniably magnetic, Scorpio would find a perfect Halloween match in Katy Perry’s portrayal of Ursula. As a fellow Scorpio, Perry channeled her Plutonian side with a bold and villainous take on the formidable sea witch.

Just as Scorpio is known to hold a certain power in their silence and mystery, Ursula’s captivating, calculated persona mirrors this Water sign’s determination to get what they want — life's full of tough choices, isn't it?

Capricorn, with its love for structure, discipline, and a bit of dry humor, is almost perfectly represented by Meghan Trainor’s hysterical take on Dr. Phil. As a fellow Capricorn, Trainor embodies her sign’s stoic yet witty side with this epic costume, channeling this Earth sign’s wisdom and desire for authority. 

Governed by the taskmaster planet, Capricorns are often the voice of reason, much like Dr. Phil himself. The “Mother” singer’s choice reflects her sign’s ability to bring humor while staying grounded and realistic. What do you say, Dr. Saturn?

Unconventional, forward-thinking and more than often ahead of the trends, Paris Hilton’s nod to Britney Spears in the iconic “Toxic” video was the quintessential Aquarius move. Born under this Air sign, Hilton never ceases to embody her rebellious spirit, continuously breaking the mold while staying true to her vision.

Governed by unpredictable Uranus, this Air sign loves nothing more than to shock and surprise the people around them, and this costume brings back an iconic pop culture moment with a touch of in-flight glamour. (Fun fact: Britney Spears has an Aquarius moon!)

Dreamy with a flair for the imaginative and cinematic, Pisces finds a perfect match in Lupita Nyong’o’s iconic portrayal of Dionne from Clueless. As a fellow Pisces herself, Nyong’o effortlessly captured the Neptunian glamour this Water sign is known to bring to the silver screen.

Governed by Neptune, the planet of fantasy and film, Pisces is naturally drawn to iconic characters and cinematic flair, and Nyong’o’s choice proves that life really does imitate art. On that note, consider this a reminder to boldly slip into a character with authenticity and style.
