Dolly Parton Halloween Costume
An icon in every sense of the word, dressing as Dolly this Halloween feels less like imitation and more like a celebration of eight unforgettable decades: big blonde hair, rhinestones, fringe, cowboy boots, bright pink and enough sparkle to catch the light from across the room. Whether you channel her country roots or full stage-show glamour, the rule is simple: when in doubt, add a little more. Few people made glamour feel as joyful as Dolly Parton, and for that we say "I will always love you".

The Higher the Hair...
The first step to any Dolly look is the hair. Go big, blonde and unapologetically voluminous. These wigs do most of the costume work before you even get dressed.

Pretty in Pink
Dolly never met a sparkle she didn't love, and pink is her signature color. Pink, rhinestones and Western sparkle are an easy Dolly formula. Pair a bedazzled pink jacket with sequined flares, a statement belt and a feather-trimmed cowgirl hat for a head-to-toe tribute.

Rhinestones & Fringe
If it sparkles, swings or catches the stage lights, you’re on the right track. Fringe-trimmed shirts, jackets and dresses make easy additions to a Dolly costume — and are considerably more re-wearable than most Halloween finds. These pieces fit just as easily into a Dolly costume, a Nashville bachelorette trip, or heading out to your weekly line dancing adventures!

Country Girl
Not every Dolly moment needs sequins. Channel Dolly’s Tennessee roots with denim, plaid, Western belts and plenty of fringe. Add a straw cowboy hat and boots for a more down-home take on her signature style. (See cowboy boot options at the end of this section!)

Dolly the Performer
For full stage-show Dolly, skip subtlety: metallics, sequins, flared jumpsuits and rhinestones are the assignment. Add a statement belt and towering blonde hair and you’re ready for the spotlight.

These Boots Were Made for Walking
No matter which Dolly era you choose, cowboy boots finish the look. Go classic in white leather or lean all the way in with pink, rhinestones and fringe.
