12 Group Costumes That Will Make You Wish You Had More Friends

A couple of pool noodles and fake legs, and you're in business. Hey! Why not carry around barf bags for extra realism?

This costume is so simple. One of you dresses as a sushi chef, one of you dresses as the mermaid who was made into sushi, one of you dresses as Neptune, who ordered the sushi, and one of you dresses as Sebastian, who escaped from the sushi chef and doomed the poor mermaid. Easy, right? ... Right?

The only thing you have to figure out is who gets to be Blinky, Pinky, Inky, Clyde, and Pac Man. You'll have to draw straws to decide who gets to be Ms. Pac Man because everyone wants to be Ms. Pac Man. Oh! And carry fruit with you for party snacks.

This costume is cute, funny, and topical because it directs attention to the world's growing slash disaster problem.

Be the only squad at the party to dress as a recommendation from the World Health Organization. Just make sure you have five friends, not six. Who wants to eat six fruits and vegetables a day?

Don't have a lot of friends? Don't worry. Bring some extra fake blood and zombie make-up so you can infect other partiers. Spread the virus!

This costume is so easy. You just need three friends and a ton of make-up. Whoever has the longest tongue can be Gene Simmons, and whoever looks most like a cat can be Peter Criss. Warning: this costume is redundant in the Detroit area.

This is the easiest group costume ever. All you have to do is wear some clothes from the clearance section of The Gap and stand around looking at your phones. You were going to do that anyway. Careful, though. You're going to get some hop ons.

The Pink Ladies are the go-to girl group costume. Get some pink jackets and draw straws for who gets to be Rizzo because everyone wants to be Rizzo. One word of caution. Don't try to go as Sexy Pink Ladies. The Pink Ladies were already sexy.

The Orphan Black clones is a bomb group costume, especially if you and your friends all look alike. Make your quiet friend be Helena.

The crafting on this one can be intense, but the good thing is that now with the new all-female Ghostbusters coming out, you can do this with your guy friends or gal friends. Just remember that crossing the streams is bad whatever sex you are.

This one is a snap. Just get some suits, sunglasses and earphones. Then, when you get to the party, shadow the person dressed as the biggest celebrity.
