WHY IT WORKS: Spell out a sign: Maybe a scary Halloween greeting, your company’s name or your company’s motto.

Adding in some characteristics (like the chef’s hat for food-loving Pinterest or the ‘let’s meet over coffee’ coffee cup for LinkedIn) gives this costume personality. Thanks to DIY Costumes on Instagram, we know what all the components should be for a Peter Pan outfit for women (though men can adapt it easily as well).
