If there’s one costume that’s having a major moment every single year, it’s the Queen of Hearts. I’m always so impressed by the creativity people bring to this “Alice in Wonderland” icon.
It’s a closet essential for Halloween lovers! I put together a list of 24 costume ideas that will have you feeling like you completely nailed it.
1. Zombie Queen of Hearts
I am so into this spooky take. You can combine Halloween eeriness with your costume just by adding some zombie makeup. I’m thinking tattered clothes and some fake blood.
A creepy demeanor totally sells the whole vibe and makes for an unforgettable look.
2. Heartbreaker Queen of Hearts
For a modern twist, add some trendy clothing items into the mix. Think about red leather jackets, sunglasses shaped like hearts, and a bold attitude to tie it all together.
3. Circus Queen of Hearts
You can add a circus feel with an outfit inspired by a ringmaster. Top hats, tailcoats, and plenty of flair will give you that *chef’s kiss* finish.
4. DIY Queen of Hearts
If you’re feeling crafty, a DIY costume is such a fun way to go. You can use a red dress as the base.
Then, just add some heart-shaped cutouts, accessories with playing cards, and a crown you made yourself.
5. Victorian Queen of Hearts
Go for an authentic outfit from the Victorian era. A corseted dress paired with lace gloves and a hat with feathers is so chic.
This sophisticated version will have you feeling like total royalty.
6. Queen of Hearts with a Twist
I love this idea because you can create your own unique interpretation. It’s all about mixing and matching different kinds of elements.
Your imagination is the only thing holding you back!
7. Classic Queen of Hearts Costume
You can really embrace the traditional vibe with this one. A full-length gown covered in hearts, a regal crown, and a scepter are the key pieces.
Pair it all with dramatic makeup, like bold red lips and heart-shaped details.
8. Queen of Hearts Ball Gown
If you want to go all out, a full-length ball gown is the answer.
This luxurious costume is absolutely perfect for making a grand entrance when you walk into any Halloween party.
9. Queen of Hearts with Playing Cards
This is such a creative look. You can incorporate some actual playing cards right into your outfit.
Try creating a skirt or a cape that is made out of cards for a really unique spin.
10. Dark Queen of Hearts
Who said the Queen can’t have a dark side? Give your costume a gothic feel by opting for a black and red color scheme.
Some dark makeup and spooky accessories, like a scepter with a skull on top, complete the look.
11. Queen of Hearts with Card Guards
Get your friends in on the fun! It’s a great group costume idea to have them dress up as the Queen’s card guards.
I guarantee it’s a look that is sure to stand out.
12. Vintage Queen of Hearts
I am crushing hard on this retro vibe.
Opt for a dress inspired by vintage looks, some classic pearls, and old-fashioned curls. This take is so elegant and timeless.
13. Royal Red Queen of Hearts
There’s just something about a monochromatic look that screams chic.
Emphasize the color red in your costume by wearing it head-to-toe. Red shoes, jewelry, and other accessories create a really cohesive outfit.
14. Queen of Hearts from Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland
You can channel Helena Bonham Carter’s version with an over-the-top, heart-shaped red wig.
An elaborate gown and dramatic makeup are must-haves. This whole look is all about the theatrics.
15. Casual Queen of Hearts
If you want to keep it simple but still recognizable, this is for you. A casual red dress, some heart-shaped sunglasses, and a cute crown are all you need.
16. Sexy Queen of Hearts
You can turn up the heat with a shorter, more form-fitting dress.
I’d add some fishnet stockings, high heels, and a mini crown for a seriously sultry take on this classic character.
17. Alice Through the Looking Glass Queen of Hearts
This look from the sequel is so good. You can recreate the vibrant and elaborate costume by using bright colors and some oversized accessories.
18. Glitter Queen of Hearts
This one is for those of us who love a little sparkle. Add some shimmer with a dress that is infused with glitter.
Don’t forget shimmering makeup and sparkly accessories to complete the vibe.
19. Queen of Hearts Makeup Focus
This is a cool idea for when you don’t want a full costume. You can create a stunning look with a focus on makeup.
Use face paint to create heart motifs, add some dramatic eyeliner, and finish with a bold red lipstick to embody the character.
20. Steampunk Queen of Hearts
I love how this combines Victorian fashion with some cool steampunk elements.
Think corsets, lace-up boots, and gears. Just don’t forget the classic heart symbols to stay true to the character.
21. Minimalist Queen of Hearts
For a costume that requires low effort, just focus on the key accessories. A headband shaped like a heart, a simple red dress, and themed jewelry pull it all together.
22. Queen of Hearts Pajamas
Celebrating Halloween in a cozy style is always a good move. Queen of Hearts-themed pajamas are perfect for a low-key night at home.
23. Queen of Hearts Couples Costume
This is perfect for coordinating with your partner. They can be the King of Hearts or the Mad Hatter for a great couples costume.
The complementary outfits will make a striking impact.
24. Cartoon Queen of Hearts
Go for an animated vibe with a costume that’s inspired by the original Disney cartoon.
The key is to focus on exaggerated features and really bright colors.
