If you're obsessed with Girls, why not channel one of the show's leading ladies for Halloween this year? To help you find some fun costume inspiration, we're breaking down what to wear and how to act in order to dress as each of the 20-something characters who you can't help but love.

01
Hannah
HBO

Hannah

  • What to wear: Wear a short, dark wig and a short, printed sundress with big, colorful jewelry and flats. Bonus points for attempting to draw on actress Lena Dunham's tattoos.
  • How to act: Be super chatty, and whenever possible, make the conversation all about you, your opinions, and/or your personal insecurities. No TMI topic is off limits.
02
Shoshanna
HBO

Shoshanna

  • What to wear: It's all about Shoshanna's best hairstyles! Try a high side braid with part of your hair down, or the cotton candy-colored styles she rocked in Japan. Then wear a girly dress with ladylike accessories (ex: Hello Kitty headphones).
  • How to act: Really bubbly and slightly naïve. Make lots of Sex and the City references, and at some point, say, "I am woman, hear me roar."
03
Jessa
HBO

Jessa

  • What to wear: A long, blond wig and dark lipstick are a must. For clothes, stick to a maxi skirt or dress, earthy accessories, and gold, vintage-style jewelry.
  • How to act: Like you just don't really give a sh*t. Oh, and don't forget the British accent!
04
Marnie
HBO

Marnie

  • What to wear: A slim, ladylike dress with pumps. If you want to go for her "The Panic in Central Park" episode look, pair a plunging red dress with dark high top sneakers. Bonus points for carrying a microphone.
  • How to act: Both overly confident and completely insecure. Suggest karaoke, and do your best with Kanye West's "Stronger."
