Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce made Halloween costume ideas really easy for everyone this year. Unless you were in outer space last weekend, you probably watched some portion of the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Chicago Bears game on Sunday. Even if you adamantly avoid watching football, the clips and photos from the game probably found you via Instagram, TikTok, or text (thanks, Mom). The rumored couple was all smiles and cheers on the field (Kelce scored a touchdown) and on the sidelines (Swift sat with his mom). I guess Swift proved that you can be a cheer captain and on the bleachers.
The evening was a big win for Swifties and football fans alike. Not only is there a new potential celebrity-athlete couple to ship, but there are also fresh new Halloween costume ideas just in time for the holiday. If the 10 Taylor Swift album eras weren’t enough material to go off, welcome to Taylor Swift’s athlete era—join me in patiently waiting for the corresponding future album.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were seen leaving the game together (cue Getaway Car reference). The backstory to this rumored relationship is adorable—here’s a full breakdown if you want to impress other Halloween partygoers with your pop culture knowledge.
The best part about the Swift-Kelce costume options is that they are relatively easy to execute. You won’t need any faux-blood or special effects to make these happen.
The goal of this costume is to recreate the magic moment the duo shared during Sunday football. Grab your favorite red lipstick and a Chief’s jersey and hop in—disclaimer: Kelce’s convertible is not included.
Taylor Swift wore a red bomber jacket to the game for an understated “cool girl” look. She paired it with a simple white tank—an easy outfit combination to recreate. You can wear this combination with a black mini skirt, jeans, shorts, or any other Taylor Swift-esque piece that you already have in your wardrobe.
If you want to put Swift’s sparkly spin on the outfit, opt for this fun sparkly bomber jacket from Target. As a bonus, you’ll be able to wear it again for any Eras Tour-related events.
If you’re dating an NFL player, one of the most important pieces of your outfit is a field VIP pass (just ask Alix Earle). DIY a pass and attach it to a Kansas City lanyard. Now you’re ready to play the field.
If you’re looking for a last-minute low-effort version of this costume, all you have to do is throw on this hat with jeans and a white T-shirt. Done!
If you plan on becoming a die-hard Travis Kelce or Kansas City Chiefs fan, it may be worth investing in an official Kelce jersey. You can wear this whether you’re dressing as Swift or Kelce and accessorize accordingly.
Of course, if you aren’t a Chiefs fan (yet) and would prefer to rep your hometown team, duck tape and a Sharpie can do wonders to transform a jersey for the night.
This Travis Kelce T-shirt is also an excellent more affordable option if you’d like to show your newfound support for the team.
