It’s safe to say 2025 is the year of the Labubu. The devilish Pop Mart monster dolls swept the cultural zeitgeist, becoming a viral must-have and a meme at the same time. Everyone from Cher to Rihanna, Dua Lipa and Lady Gaga turned the toys into freaky street-style accessories. Naomi Osaka wowed with her bedazzled Labubu collection at the US Open. Liam Neeson wondered if you could eat them. Tap into the trend with a Labubu Halloween costume that’s easy to put together.

When it comes to inspiration for dressing like a Labubu, look no further than Blackpink’s Lisa (who may just be the collectible’s No. 1 fan). The “Born Again” singer donned a fuzzy pink mini skirt and crop top with matching furry boots and a mask to become an IRL Labubu on the Deadline World Tour in August 2025. She completed the look, shared to her Instagram after the show, with a custom pink Labubu doll from Marko Monroe.
You don’t have to be the Labubu queen to steal her look. Here’s everything you’ll need to make the cutest Labubu costume this Halloween season.

A Fuzzy Top
Once you’ve decided which Labubu you want to dress up as, find a fuzzy sweater or faux fur coat that matches the color of the doll you’re emulating. Most of the toys come in pastel or neutral colors, such as pink, light blue, matcha green, and beige. Bonus points if the top has a hood to help you capture the Labubu look more accurately.
Fuzzy Pants
If you’re dressing for a low-temp Halloween, pick up a pair of pants that are the same color as your top and suited for the weather. Alternatively, take a cue from Lisa and don a mini skirt with tall fuzzy boots for a K-Pop-approved take on Labubu chic. Neutral-colored sneakers can stand in for the iconic dolls’ bare feet.
Bunny Ears
It wouldn’t be a Labubu costume without the signature pointy ears. Another option is to find a beanie or hooded zip-up with floppy ears.
Fake Teeth
Labubu’s smile might just become as famous as the Mona Lisa’s. The doll’s wide, toothy grin can be drawn on with costume makeup or achieved with a Labubu mask. If you’re fully committed to DIYing, cut out a mask shape in cardboard and print out a Labubu face to glue onto it. Otherwise, wear a set of fake top teeth to channel that mischievous smile.

Bold Blush
The final step before you can show your Labubu Halloween costume to the world: bold pink blush. Swipe on a dramatic circle of soft pink or red-orange blush below each temple to copy the cute toy. Blend and voila! Your Labubu transformation is complete. Don’t forget to pin a Labubu toy to your bag before you head out on Halloween night.
