I don't know about you, but I haven't stopped thinking about Squid Game since I binged the show — now on track to become Netflix's most popular ever — so it's only natural that with Halloween approaching, costume ideas have been brewing. The engrossing series, which centres around a mysterious yet deadly survival game where players compete to win a lot of money, features a variety of interesting characters you can easily dress up as.

While the show is a complicated, nuanced one, its characters' outfits and looks are quite straightforward, with the series offering a handful of simple costume ideas for yourself, a duo, or a group of friends. Chances are, you'll already have a few items ready in your closet. Keep scrolling to get ideas for how to dress up as your favourite Squid Game characters this Halloween.

How to Dress Like the Contestants From Squid Game

What to wear for the contestants: All you need to dress as a contestant is a green tracksuit with a number taped to the front. You can customise your number and choose to go as Gi-hun (456), Sang-woo (218), Sae-byeok (67), Il-nam (1), or any other player. For extra measure, you can also add blood and dirt stains to your outfit.

How to Dress Like the Guards From Squid Game

What to wear for the guards: Similar to the contestants costume, you only need one key clothing item to dress as a guard. Opt for a red utility jumpsuit or a zip-up rain jacket and matching pants for your outfit. As for the mask, shops on Etsy are already starting to sell exact replicas, or you can just buy a fencing mask and draw a triangle, circle, or square on it with chalk.

How to Dress Like the Final 3 Contestants From Squid Game

What to wear for the final three contestants: If you made it to the end of the season, you'll remember the guards had the last three contestants, Gi-hun, Sang-woo, and Sae-byeok, change into tuxedos with bowties for a fancy steak dinner to reward them for making it as far as they did. To achieve the look, wear any black suit, bowtie, and don't forget to mark your number.
