Think three's a crowd? No way—not on Halloween, anyway! In fact, when it comes to planning a Halloween costume, we say the more the merrier! For that reason, we've had the most fun rounding up creative trio Halloween costumes for your best friend group and family Halloween costumes for three too. This list features group costumes you can buy online now, as well as do-it-yourself costumes in case you're feeling crafty.

Included in this roundup of matching trio Halloween costume ideas are nods to our favorite Halloween movies, best TV show costumes, and musicals—all creative Halloween costume ideas for best friends to pull together. (You might just have the most fun brainstorming which characters you want to dress up as!) From Hocus Pocus to Hamilton, you're sure to find pop culture inspiration on this list of iconic trio costumes. Some sweet foodie-inspired ideas we are loving are the Cookie Monster with Milk and Cookies; a trio inspired by the Candyland board game; the Krispy Kreme Doughnut family; and the ultimate DIY Pie Slice threesome (seriously so adorable!)

Because many of these ideas are easy (like, hardly any crafting skill required!) and inexpensive to DIY, you won't have to invest a ton of time, energy, or money into making your group Halloween costumes cute and clever. Now get going... on the count of THREE!

DIY Paper Doll Trio

If a shared love of fashion and style is what brought your trio together, this costume is tailor-made for you.

To make, trace the outline of a dress or shirt and skirt on cardboard. Cut out the “outfit” base. Use hot glue or a spray adhesive to apply fabric to the cut pieces of cardboard. After it's dry, cut the fabric as close to the cardboard edges as possible. Add buttons, zippers, or other fun accessories to your outfits using a hot glue gun.

Glue ribbon in a U-shape around the shoulder to hang around the neck. If working with two separate pieces of an outfit, glue a ribbon to each top corner of the bottom half too; these will tie around the back. You can hide the tied ribbons or leave them out to look like a belt (we did both).

Print and cut out doll tabs from our template. Hot glue the doll tabs on a diagonal on the edge of your outfit pieces. Wear a form-fitting dress in a color close to your skin tone and tie the pieces on!
