Three-Person Costume Ideas That Are Sure to Make Your Crew Stand Out
Halloween may be more than a few months away but the key to landing any awesome costume is plenty of planning. When it comes to crafting an innovative DIY costume, you’ll want to give yourself more than enough time to purchase all of your materials and put it together. Or, if you're looking for a store-bought option, then you'll need to be sure to grab your look before it sells out. Following these rules is even more crucial if you're planning a group costume, like a for a family of three or a trio of friends.
Whether you want to draw inspiration from pop culture or are aiming for something a bit more classic, our list of costumes for three people will make your crew the talk of any Halloween party. We've included looks that are work appropriate, as well as a bunch of funny options and totally cute ideas — many of these serve as last minute costume ideas or can be bought with a click of a button. So, kick it up a notch this year and prove to everyone that you and your crew are true squad goals. And if you don't quite have three people to complete your look, dress up with your bestie in one of these halloween costumes for best friends.

1) Instagram Filters
To make this costume, pull up Instagram stories on your phone and select the filter of your choice (have everyone in your crew pick a different one). Then, point the phone at a blank surface, and take a screenshot. Send the screenshot file to a printing or office supplies store to have it blown up and printed on a thick board. Then, cut out a part in the middle for your face. Use makeup and accessories to recreate the filter's effects, whether it's heart sunglasses, face highlighter, or dog ears.
