Which female superheroes should you be channeling on Halloween this year?

Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Ruth Bader Ginsburg has been fighting for women's rights for years — a living, breathing superheroine. For this costume, wear a black long-sleeved dress or graduation robe; a lace collar; hot glue; large glasses; studded gold earrings; and, of course, a gavel.
Scarlet Witch

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Elizabeth Olsen plays the Scarlet Witch, a mutant with perhaps the most fascinatingly vague set of superpowers. She's able to alter reality. Imagine, though, how difficult it must be for her to remain objective!
She-Hulk

We've all felt like She-Hulk every now and then, so this green-hued costume is feasible to pull off. All you need to do is paint your body green and wear long, lustrous black hair. For background, She-Hulk was formed when her cousin, the actual Hulk, gave her a dose of his own radioactive blood. Now she can switch into the Sensational She-Hulk whenever she pleases.
Buffy Summers

Buffy of Buffy the Vampire Slayer totally counts as a superhero, especially since the comic continued long after the TV series did.
Michelle Obama

Easy one: Put on an awesome dress. When they go low, you go high.
Harley Quinn

Pigtails? Check. Temporary hair-dye? Check. A slightly insane temperament? Checkmate — that's all you need to channel this Suicide Squad member for the evening. (Also a thought: No need to go wandering around in underwear, suspenders and baby-doll tee if you're not feeling it. It's about about the 'tude with this costume anyway.)
The Scarlet Witch

No, you probably won't be able to hex anyone just by slipping into a red bodysuit. But a gal's gotta try to find out, right?
Batwoman

A flaming red wig, a black mask and bodysuit and you'll be ready to come when Gotham calls.
Hillary Clinton

Not all superheroes wear capes. Some, in fact, wear pantsuits.
Gamora from
Guardians of the Galaxy

Get yourself some rad leather, green body paint, and temporary purple hair dye and you'll be golden. Bonus points if you manage to get Chris Pratt to be your Halloween party date.
Storm from

X-Men

Halle Berry played this part with a short silver cropped 'do. But we'd recommend snagging a long white wig and a cape and then standing in front of a fan all night. Costume mission: accomplished.
She-Hulk

You won't like her when she's angry. A little green makeup (well, maybe a lot) and an artfully ripped outfit can go a long way.
Black Widow, a.k.a. Natasha Romanova, from
The Avengers

If it's good enough for ScarJo, it's good enough for us.
Supergirl

If you're not feeling the full-on costume, just pick up a Superman logo tee and wear it under your normal clothes. If anyone asks, you're in disguise.
Wasp, a.k.a. Janet van Dyne, from
The Avengers

You know that pair of fairy wings you've had hanging around since that time you dressed as Tinker Bell in college? Add a black bodysuit and a Beehive hairdo and you're in business.
Elastigirl, a.k.a. Helen Parr, from
The Incredibles

Behind every great man is a great woman. But behind every great superhero is often an even more badass superheroine.
Aquagirl

In case your Halloween party involves getting into a pool at any point.
Invisible Woman, a.k.a. Susan Sue Storm-Richards

This is the costume to pick if you don't actually want to go out on Halloween. If anyone asks where you were, just tell them that they couldn't see you because you were invisible to the naked eye.
Negasonic Teenage Warhead

While this character's powers might be a little open to interpretation, she was still one of our favorite parts of Deadpool. Just pop on a leather jacket and pull your hair back — or maybe use Halloween as your reason to finally take the buzz plunge?

But really, the appeal of dressing up as Negasonic Teenage Warhead is, well, telling everyone who asks that you're dressed up as Negasonic Teenage Warhead.
Starlight, aka Annie January, is one of the super-abled characters on 's The Boys and a genuinely nice girl-next-door who gets in way over her head. Annie just wants to save the world, but when she joins an Avengers-like squad, she realizes why it's important to never meet your heroes. Annie may have conflicted feelings about her superhero status, but her white and gold costume is pretty awesome regardless.
Not going to lie: It takes a very committed person to go full-blue for this costume. If you're totally fine scrubbing off body paint come November 1, however, this is one Halloween look that will seriously impress.
