A24’s “Everything Everywhere All at Once” brings absolute, can’t-look-away chaos and pairs all that excitement with impressive costumes. The multigenerational, multiverse drama doubles down on Michelle Yeoh’s star power – which can’t be contained, even in some of the simpler looks the actor wears as her character, Evelyn.
“As a costume designer, I think about, ‘Where would she shop, and where would she get her clothes?’ Well, she would go to Chinatown,” designer Shirley Kurata told Fashionista in March. ” . . . I was really scared because Michelle, having come from ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ . . . What if she’s gonna expect all these expensive designer clothes, and I’m getting these really inexpensive clothes from Chinatown? Is she gonna be upset? . . . But it was the easiest fitting, and I was so grateful that she was open to not the most glamorous outfit.”
The not-so-glamorous outfits in “Everything Everywhere All at Once” make them that much more iconic. Whether you want to channel the basic looks of Jamie Lee Curtis’s Deirdre Beaubeirdra or jump between universes as Stephanie Hsu’s Joy Wang/Jobu Tupaki, the sci-fi action film has plenty of inspiration for costumes this upcoming Halloween.
Ahead, check out all the outfits you can replicate for spooky season.

Deirdre Beaubeirdra From "Everything Everywhere All at Once" Halloween Costume
- What to wear: Curtis’s character in the movie serves as an IRS inspector, so, naturally, her look isn’t too flashy nor difficult to achieve. To replicate her ensemble, you’ll need a long-sleeved mustard-yellow turtleneck top, an off-white sweater vest, a string of beaded necklaces, and red rectangle glasses.

Evelyn From "Everything Everywhere All at Once" Halloween Costume
- What to wear: Evelyn wears a handful of outfits throughout the movie, but this particular look is fairly simple to put together. You’ll just need a maroon puffer vest, a paisley button-up shirt, one googly eye from the craft store, and a little bit of fake blood.
