A Simple Guide to Halloween Fancy Dress in the UK
Every year in October, people across the UK get excited for Halloween. It's a time for dressing up, going to parties, and having fun. Whether you're a child going trick-or-treating, a student heading to a costume party, or a parent helping your little ones get ready, finding the right Halloween fancy dress is part of the fun. In this guide, we'll explain where the idea of Halloween costumes comes from, share some popular fancy dress ideas for 2025, and give you easy tips to choose the best Halloween outfit, costume, or accessory for the season. The tradition of wearing fancy dress on Halloween started many years ago. It comes from a Celtic festival called Samhain, which marked the end of summer. People believed that on the night of 31st October, spirits could walk around among the living. To hide from these ghosts, people wore costumes. Over time, the tradition became more fun and less serious. Today, we wear Halloween costumes not to scare away spirits, but to enjoy parties, take part in events, and express ourselves in creative ways. Each Halloween brings new costume ideas. Some come from films, TV shows, or fashion trends, while others are based on old favourites. Here are some popular Halloween fancy dress ideas for this year: People love dressing up like characters from the 80s and 90s. Think of TV shows like The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air or music stars like the Spice Girls. These costumes are fun, easy to recognise, and great for parties.

These spooky costumes are great for older teens and adults. Planning to dress up with friends or family? Matching costumes are always a hit.

Here are a few tips to help you find something that looks great and feels good to wear: Are you going to a family event, a school disco, or a pub party?

Alex Warren Responds to Backlash Over Sabrina Carpenter Post as 'Manchild' Rivals His Song for No. 1 Spot on Charts
Alex Warren responded to backlash after posting a link to Sabrina Carpenter's latest single, "Manchild," on his Instagram Stories on Monday, June 9 The musician's hit song "Ordinary," which is in its second week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, is being challenged by "Manchild" for the top spot on next week's chart Warren addressed the negativity he received on X, calling Carpenter's single a "great record"Talent respects talent. Alex Warren, 24, showed his support for Sabrina Carpenter, 26, after the release of her latest single "Manchild" on Monday, June 10, by posting a Spotify link to her newly-released song. However, his seemingly kind gesture sparked apparent backlash from fans on social media. The TikTok star-turned-musician, whose hit "Ordinary" is in its second week at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, received mixed feelings from fans as Carpenter's latest single is challenging him for the top spot on next week's Billboard Hot 100. Warren called out the negativity on X later that day, emphasizing his intentions with the Instagram Stories post and making clear his support of Carpenter despite competition on the music charts. "Wait why is everyone so mean on here… music is music. I'm so blessed to be on the chart and I'm also so happy for all the wins in music," he began in the post. "Manchild is such a great record and I'm so honored to be mentioned in the same sentence as Sabrina." Warren concluded, "Ordinary means so much to me and so many people and it's totally ok if it doesn't to you. I'm just happy to be here:)." Users came to his defense, writing words of support under his post. "Can we normalize not harassing artists for no reason at all?! Everyone works hard for their records," wrote one user. "Twitter is not a nice place. IGNORE These trolls," commented another. "Some of us are mature and normal enough to stream both songs and support u both! Thank you for being respectful and not spreading hate towards Sabrina or any other artist," penned a third. Carpenter debuted "Manchild" on June 5 through Island Records, and the accompanying music video was released the following day. In February 2025, Warren's "Ordinary" was released through Atlantic Records as the lead single from his upcoming debut studio album,You'll Be Alright, Kid. Warren previously explained the meaning behind his song, "Ordinary," which he said was inspired by his wife, Kouvr Annon. The couple, who initially found fame as members of the content creation hub Hype House, wed in June 2024. The same month "Ordinary" was released, Annon posted a TikTok in which she compiled clips of Warren performing. "When you watch the person you love do the thing they love most in the world," she wrote at the time. She captioned the post, "I'm the worlds most proud musician wife."

‘Inside' Review: Guy Pearce Delivers Another Incredible Supporting Performance in Australian Prison Drama That Cuts Through All the Bull
The lower-security prisoners in Charles Williams' difficult but deeply penetrating 'Inside' sometimes pass the time by playing the trivia games that are printed on the packaging of their sweets. 'WHO AM I?' the text asks, before offering a series of clues about, say, a Brooklyn-born musician who got his first break when Bette Midler hired him as a pianist. Most of the characters in this decidedly grounded Australian prison drama are too young — and too many worlds removed — to know who Barry Manilow is, let alone guess his identity based on a handful of factoids. But that doesn't stop these men from trying, even if they spend every day of their sentences trying to separate their souls from the bullet points of their own biographies. Are they more than what they've done? The people they've hurt? The situations they were born into? We know they are. Not because they're human, and we have the natural grace to extend these murderers the courtesy of that recognition, but rather because this film wouldn't have any reason to exist if the answer to any of those questions was 'no.' The abundant power of Williams' debut feature — which stems from his experience growing up in an economically dispossessed Victoria town whose jail was like a second home for several of the men in his family — is rooted in the fact that 'Inside' never pretends otherwise. More from IndieWire Zoe Saldaña Says Her 'Emilia Pérez' Oscar Is 'Trans': The Statue 'Goes by They/Them' Two Lost Exploitation Films from Trash-Cult Favorite Andy Milligan Will 'Re-Premiere' at Tribeca This is not a story that labors to earn its prisoners their humanity. On the contrary, it's a story about how their clear and inextinguishable humanity is liable to become a prison unto itself. In the borrowed words of long-time inmate Warren Murfett (a bushy and brilliant Guy Pearce): 'The worst of men have a little bit of good in them, and that'll be their undoing.' Warren is quoting another inmate at the same time as he's mocking the way that some of his fellow convicts try to protect themselves with aphorisms, but some pearls of wisdom are worth carrying around in your pocket like a shiv at the ready. For a man with blood on his hands like Warren, it's that last mote of humanity that might prove to be his doom — the stubborn part of himself that still yearns for redemption, hopes for healing, and strives to make something more of himself before there's nothing left. It's the part of himself that 17-year-old Mel Blight (puppy-eyed newcomer Vincent Miller, wrenchingly credible in his first movie role) is already trying to stamp out by the time Williams' film begins to take shape around him. In his opening voiceover, which floats above the sort of glassy synth music that's meant to numb our judgment, Mel informs us that he was conceived during a conjugal visit when his father was in prison, and that his dad once told him that he was destined to wind up back behind bars. 'And he was right.' A broken home gave way to juvenile detention, and the violence that followed him there saw Mel transferred to general population — not unheard of in a country where kids as young as 10 can be locked away indefinitely. Now that he's inching toward parole, Mel's doing everything in his power to fuck it up. 'They want me to make a story out of it and pretend I've changed,' he says when asked to write a letter of contrition to the boy he beat to death in juvie. 'But I haven't changed. No one does, especially inside.' By 'inside' he means prison, but Williams' delicate script obviously intends for us to recognize that he means inside himself as well. If this film is able to afford such an explicit double entendre, that's because of how truthfully it grapples with the nuances of rehabilitation — with the crooked path these men are meant to walk from sin to salvation, and with the practical realities of returning to a world that may no longer have a place for them in it. Like so many of the people he meets in prison, Mel doesn't think he's worthy of being released. 'There's something broken inside of us,' he writes in one of his letters, and it's easier for him to own that spiritual dysfunction than to risk the heartache of failing to overcome it. That's a big part of the initial reason why Warren takes Mel under his wing: The kid is the perfect candidate to kill the most hated man in prison, whose bounty would be enough to pay off Warren's dire gambling debt. The target's name is Mark Shepard (a slack-jawed Cosmo Jarvis, who continues to be one of the most gifted chameleons in modern cinema), he became a national sensation when he was convicted for the rape and murder of a young girl when he was only 13 years old himself, and — after earning a transfer out of maximum security — he happens to be Mel's new cellmate. What separates Mark from the other two characters in this movie's core triangle is that he's evangelically convinced of his own absolution, to the point that he delivers Pentecostal sermons to the world's most hostile congregation. He even ropes Mel into playing the prayer room keyboard as he preaches. It's a little detail, but also one emblematic of the irreconcilable tension that 'Inside' would rather articulate than resolve; Williams often lingers on the image of Mel sitting focused at the piano, forcing us to guess whether the kid is starting to entertain the possibility of self-deliverance, or whether he's plotting how to stab the man at the pulpit. Of course, Mel's dilemma isn't so black-and-white, especially because offing a 'monster' of Mark's caliber might be the shortest possible route to getting right with God. 'Inside' eventually builds to a clear moment of choice for the sake of its own climax, but the vast majority of this movie is spent complicating its characters' logic rather than framing their choices as some moral binary. Not only do Williams and Jarvis conspire to rescue a mottled innocence from the recesses of Mark's tortured mind (a process that hinges on a truly shocking reveal), but Pearce's layered and wrenchingly humane performance eventually reveals Warren to be the heart of the film. That isn't because Warren evolves from the diabolical manipulator that he seems to be at the start of this story, but rather because we bear witness to how the character reframes himself as his greatest mark. He might tell Mel that breaking their cycles of violence is as foolish as thinking a different song might come on when you replay a tape, but some of his actions suggest otherwise, and the surrogate father role Warren assumes while coaching Mel towards another murder starts to affect the older man after he suffers a disastrous visit with his actual son during a brief furlough ('Babyteeth' breakout Toby Wallace is outstanding in the crucial one-scene role). The Joker-like shot of Warren sticking his head out of a car window on the way back to jail, his beard blasting against his face in the wind, is an unforgettably poignant snapshot of a man who's free from everything but himself. 'Inside' is a small and constrained prison drama, even by the inflexible standards of its genre, and yet Williams' debut is so replete with such moments of raw compassion that it almost invisibly accumulates a deep well of emotion — one that allows the film to feel much bigger than it looks by the time it arrives at its absolute knockout of a final scene. There are a few small cheats along the way, but 'Inside' is averse to didacticism and neoliberal heart-softening when it counts, and the power it achieves in the end is inextricable from the honesty with which it's earned. 'Who Am I?' is a mystery that none of these characters may ever be able to solve for themselves, at least not with the certainty of a trivia game on the back of a candy wrapper, but to watch them look for the answers in each other is enough to convince us that the question is always worth asking. 'Inside' screened at the 2025 Tribeca Festival. Quiver Distribution will release it in theaters on Friday, June 20.
