These Fun '80s Costumes Are Inspired by Your Favorite Glow Characters
Pop culture offers a constant stream of costume inspiration. And some of the most popular Halloween getups—think Wednesday Addams from The Addams Family, Regina George from Mean Girls, or Eleven from Netflix's Stranger Things—take inspiration from TV and movies. There's a buzzy new show premiering every single day (or at least it seems like it, thanks to Netflix), meaning your costume options are endless. Right now, there's one show in particular we're looking to for costume inspiration come October 31.
We're talking about Glow, the Netflix original series set in '80s Los Angeles based off the real-life women's wrestling TV show. We immediately took note of the incredible fashion seen onscreen (especially the leotards the wrestlers wear inside the ring). After finishing Season 3, we got to work dreaming up cool costume ideas based off the show, and we're happy to inform you that they're pretty easy to put together. Keep scrolling to see the most iconic looks from the show, as well as the latest season. Then, shop the pieces you'll need to dress up as Liberty Belle, Zoya, Machu Picchu, et al.
