The true party princess. Paris Hilton was known for many things while living it up in her party era, but here we're focusing on her velour tracksuits. At one point they were her go-to outfit for everything from hopping on a private jet to grabbing groceries. Now they can be your go-to look for this year's Halloween.

Would we pass on the opportunity to step out as Cher from Clueless? "As if!" With exactly the right shade of canary yellow and the perfect schoolgirl pleats, all that's left to master is your best Californian Valley girl accent.

We can already hear the jaunty, salsa-esque Sex and the City theme song playing in our heads. The fashion moment that played out on screens year after year, Carrie Bradshaw's outfit in the opening credits has reached sacred levels of sartorial history. While costume designer Patricia Field plucked the original skirt for five dollars from a showroom bin, our version is one that you'll wear again and again long after Halloween is over.

Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's
Considered one of the most influential dresses in the history of 20th century clothing and costume design, Givenchy's little black dress for Audrey Hepburn's Holly Golightly is one of the classiest routes you can take this Halloween. Make sure you have a croissant and coffee to hand for the most authentic take.

Kim Kardashian in Marilyn Monroe's multi-million dollar dress
Before Kim Kardashian squeezed into it for the Met Gala red carpet, it had been sitting for years in a darkened, temperature-controlled vault. While this gown was always a treasured piece of fashion history – Marilyn Monroe wore it when she sang that rendition of 'Happy Birthday Mr. President' to John F Kennedy – it's been enjoying pop culture's spotlight once again following the Kardashian moment.
