Spice Girl Costume Ideas
The all-girl group the Spice Girls hit the music scene in the mid-1990s, offering upbeat tunes such as "Wannabe" for its fans to enjoy. The five group members with decidedly different fashion tastes work well for a group costume, whether you're going out for Halloween or hitting up a '90s theme party. You can find a Spice Girl look that suits your personality, whether you're athletic, girly or downright scary.

Posh Spice
-
The fashionista in your group can go as Posh Spice. Posh Spice, as her name implies, loves all things fashion, so choose a glammed-up look for your costume. A sexy minidress serves as the base for your Posh Spice costume. Choose a bold color such as red, a classic such as black or a sequined minidress for some sparkle. Pair your dress with high heels. Wear dramatic makeup, such as a smoky eye and red lipstick, and keep your hair down and sleek.
Baby Spice
-
Baby Spice is a sweet costume choice. Choose a baby-doll dress in a soft, feminine color such as pink or yellow. Wear tennis shoes and socks with the dress. Put your hair -- preferably blond -- in pigtails. Use scrunchies or bows in the pigtails for an authentically '90s look. Choose a softer makeup look -- rosy cheeks and lip gloss will suffice.
-
Sporty Spice
-
If you're athletic, go as Sporty Spice to your costume party. You probably have the outfit on hand already. Pair a sports bra or tank top with a pair of breakaway athletic pants. Wear your favorite tennis shoes. Put your hair in a high ponytail, and keep the makeup to a minimum. You can accessorize with sweatbands around your wrists.
Scary Spice
-
If you have plenty of hair and are willing to walk on the wild side for the night, choose a Scary Spice costume. Look for a catsuit for a sexy look. If you can't find one, choose a pair of black leather (or faux leather) pants, and pair them with an animal-print top. Curl and tease your hair so that it is full of volume. Dark eye makeup complements your wild look.
Ginger Spice
-
If you're a redhead -- or willing to become one for the costume -- then Ginger Spice is the right girl for you. In the 1990s, Ginger Spice was notorious for wearing a minidress that featured the English flag. If you can't find that, choose a minidress in red or blue. Pair it with platform shoes or boots. Curl your locks, and choose a dramatic look for your eyes.
