3 Group 'Hustlers' Halloween Costumes That Are Fierce As Hell
Halloween is all about trick or treating, so why not dress up as a few ladies who had some pretty awesome tricks up their sleeves? You and your pals can choose one of these three group Hustlers Halloween costumes. The film stars Jennifer Lopez, Constance Wu, Keke Palmer, Lili Reinhart, Julia Stiles, Cardi B and Lizzo, and it's still playing in some theaters. So the cast's ensembles are totally relevant and recognizable.
Hustlers, which opened with a record-breaking $33.2 million at the box office, was based on a New York Magazine article called "The Hustlers At Scores" which detailed the true story of a few strippers who tricked men into giving them their money so they could treat themselves. It's a lot to digest. But if you're interested in remaking the movie's iconic looks for Halloween, you're in luck. Prepare for your group to be all-trick-and-no-treat legends this holiday.
1. Dance Rehearsal Hustlers
Whether you saw the movie or not, the outfits in Hustlers make for some fun Halloween costumes, even the outfits from their pole dancing sessions. For anyone in your group willing and ready to show a little skin, the dance-rehearsal version of the hustlers may be the move.
To pull off Lopez's attire as Ramona, you'll need a purple sports bra and black dance shorts.
If the shorts are too revealing for your taste, you can opt for cycle shorts instead.
For Wu's ensemble as Destiny, you'll need a pink sports bra and short cheetah bottoms.
In the same scene, Cardi B makes an appearance as a dancer named Diamond.
For this look, you'll need a similar black-and-white tank top.
