Halloween: More underrated Disney costumes

More Underrated Disney costumes that will help you stand out on Halloween

By Amanda Krause from Business Insider

The most popular Halloween costumes change every year, but Disney-character getups are always on the list.

Buzz Lightyear and Woody from “Toy Story” are always popular costumes, but Little Bo Peep isn’t as common.

“Toy Story” was released over 20 years ago in 1995, but the franchise still has a pretty dedicated fan base. If you’d like to dress as one of the film’s less popular faces, opt for a character like Little Bo Peep.

You’ll have to get a little creative to recreate the exact look made by Poison Bella Cosplay and her fiancé, but a full white skirt, baby-pink shirt, and blue shepherd’s cane will do the trick.

One of the most important parts of creating a costume from “The Nightmare Before Christmas” is pairing periwinkle makeup with painted-on stitches.

Vlogger Jasmine Liraa captured both of these elements perfectly with her costume and tied her whole look together with Sally’s signature dress.

Beret Girl is one of the most underrated characters from “A Goofy Movie.”

There are tons of costumes that you can create using a simple pair of black leggings, and Beret Girl from “A Goofy Movie” is one of them. Just add a magenta wig, black beret, and plain turtleneck, and you’re all set.

To exactly mirror Beret Girl’s style, follow the lead of cosplayer Kendra Davis and pair purple eye shadow with a thick cat eye.

Stacey is another underrated character from “A Goofy Movie” that you can dress as for Halloween.

As Roxanne’s best friend in “A Goofy Movie,” Stacey might not get as much attention as other characters. Still, she makes for a great Halloween costume. To get her look, pair a red tank top with matching pants and a lavender cardigan. For accessories, all you’ll need is some purple glasses and a DIY sunflower hat.

For some extra inspiration, take a look at costumer Ana Baron’s recreation of the underrated character.

Anastasia and Drizella from “Cinderella” put an alternative spin on traditional Disney princess costumes.

If you want to wear a ball gown on Halloween but don’t want to dress as a Disney princess, try dressing as Cinderella’s stepsisters, Anastasia and Drizella.

This detailed look was created by Disney enthusiasts Joanna Lynn and Allen Waiserman, but you can create a DIY version at home with simple blue and purple dresses.

There are five muses in “Hercules,” but you can go solo as one for Halloween.

Artist Kiera Please created a costume inspired by Calliope, one of Hercules’ five muses.

On Halloween, try making a DIY costume of whichever muse you prefer, which can be worn alone or as part of a “Hercules”-inspired group costume.

There are tons of characters from “Holes” to dress up as on Halloween.

“Holes” was a 1998 novel written by Louis Sachar. Disney turned the book into a movie in 2003.

For Halloween, follow in the footsteps of cosplayer Samantha Kane and her friends by dressing as Stanley, Zero, Zigzag, or any other characters from the fan-favorite franchise.

You might think that “The Nightmare Before Christmas” is Disney’s only connection to Halloween, but don’t forget about the “Haunted Mansion” ride that exists in three different Disney Parks.

Cosplayer Fairwind Cosplay recreated the look of the Tightrope Walker, who can be seen walking above a crocodile pond early in the ride. To wear this on Halloween, you can either make a DIY version or buy a replica directly from Disney.

Despite being one of Disney’s most famous films, “Pinocchio” rarely inspires Halloween costumes.

Pinocchio may be one of Disney’s most critically acclaimed films, but besides the film’s namesake, you’ll rarely see characters from the movie on Halloween.

While characters like Honest John and Gideon are a bit creepier than most Disney characters — they con Pinocchio in attempts to sell him to a puppeteer — cosplayers Fearynna,Camy, and Lea created a group costume that would be a good idea at a Halloween family function.

“Atlantis: The Lost Empire” was released in 2001, so you won’t have to worry about other people copying your costume.

“Atlantis: The Lost Empire” was one of Disney’s least successful ventures, but fans still love the 2002 film — it even has Cole Sprouse’s seal of approval.

Cosplayer Moe Dreaming reimagined the leading characters Milo and Kida almost exactly, and you can do the same with the help of some simple sewing skills. Milo’s outfit can be recreated with any thrifted trench coat and white turtleneck, but to match Kida’s look, you’ll need to sew blue fabric into a crop top and then use the rest to make a skirt.

Only true Disney fans will dress as Captain Amelia from “Treasure Planet” on Halloween.

“Treasure Planet” was a financial flop for Disney, but the film still holds a special place in the hearts of fans — some of whom even made a Reddit thread in honor of the movie.

Cosplayer Taylor Griffin created a Halloween costume inspired by Captain Amelia, but any character from the film will work just as well.
