From "House of the Dragon" to "Yellowjackets," here are 7 last-minute couples costume ideas

You really can't go wrong with embracing the bromance between these two Indian revolutionary heroes in what's arguably the best action film of the summer. While you could go with any number of their looks – from their dapper Bollywood dance ensembles to their full rebel regalia (flying hair and motorcycles in the breeze) – the absolute winner would be their look post-jailbreak. What's better than one man riding the shoulders of another while double-fisting rifles? Nothing, that's what. Plus, you can rewatch the epic Netflix film all in the name of "research."

The beauty of this action comedy is that you can choose from such a vast array of pairings throughout the multiverses depending on your gender, sexual identity or inanimate object of choice. One accessible look is classic Evelyn in a quilted vest and Waymond with a fanny pack, but you could go for the Wong Kar-wai Hong Kong cinema glam if you're feeling fancy. Wanna go Sapphic? Bust out those hot dog fingers and cats. And if you're really ambitious, any pairing of Evelyn with Joy's over-the-top ensembles (Elvis is a fave) would work. While you're at it, why not just throw an "Everything Everywhere"-themed party? Cater with everything bagels and hot dogs, and decorate with plentiful googly eyes.

As an ensemble show, Amazon Prime's "Lord of the Rings" prequel has a quest-worth of characters to choose. Galadriel is probably the most recognizable with her long blond braid. The beauty of going as the warrior elf is that you can choose a sleek gown—or silver battle armor, if you're feeling feisty. And as Galadriel has a bevy of potential suitors, your companion can be any number of the characters, from the dashing and faithful Elendil to overlooked Elrond (nice elves always finish last). Halbrand would be a conversation-starter, as the mediocre guy reveals darker stripes (and a cool cape) in the finale. Part of a pair with a big height difference? Nori and The Stranger is another great option. Plus, if you're a Harfoot, you get to put acorns in your hair.  

The best, most smoldering couples are always the ones that could have been. Ignite that lost maybe love as Shauna and Jackie. This couples costume is a great idea if you have one partner who wants to get glammed up and one who'd like to do the bare minimum or be comfortable: Shauna's flannel and jeans are easy to throw together, and Jackie's soccer uniform can be styled with her signature high, ribboned ponytail. If you want to ramp up the doomed factor, or maybe it's cold out: your Jackie can be wrapped in a camping blanket. Bring a diary and be prepared to read aloud. 

Look, I guess if you want to go the obvious "She-Hulk" couples route you can slather yourself in green paint while your partner squeezes themselves into a gold latex suit and cowl (while remaining barefoot for that walk of shame home). But you know who brings the fun? That would be party girl Madisynn, whose only real accessory is a drink (the better to ramble on about how to properly spell her name). She's the perfect foil to Wong, the Master of the Mystic Arts, who walks around in comfy layers and a tiny mustache. To add performance touches, tell people not to spoil you on "The Sopranos" and maybe bust out a karaoke number or two.

We've saved the worst for last. Although this pairing will likely elicit the most groans and gags, it may also be the most recognizable. If you're okay with controversy, dig out some blond wigs from the clearance bin (it looks like the show did) and throw on some velvety frocks to be the uncle-niece couple we love to hate. If you want to recreate the wedding scene, some Nordic-esque shifts and a cardboard crown is in order. For true "House of the Dragon" realness, make sure your clothes are so dark you can barely see them. Whatever you do, do not bleach your hair because some styles you cannot come back from.
