Kate Middleton

What you'll need:
• A knockoff of Kate Middleton's sapphire engagement ring
• A knockoff of her wedding or engagement dress
• A knockoff of Pippa Middleton's maid-of-honor dress
• A crazy hat. See: Princess Beatrice
• A curling iron

This Halloween, it might be easier and cheaper to dress up as an actual princess, as opposed to the Disney versions from years past. With dozens of knockoffs of Kate's engagement and wedding fashions, you can outfit your entire group of friends as attendees of this April's royal wedding. Those hoping to ape the now duchess's engagement style can pick up an imitation blue dress and a knockoff sapphire-and-diamond ring for around $30. It'll cost a bit more to copy her bridal look — a knockoff of her wedding gown sells for about $1,000, while a copy of Pippa's maid-of-honor dress goes for $425. But don't limit yourself to the Middleton family. Take a note from Princess Beatrice, whose pink fascinator stole the show, and be the center of attention with this imitation version. Alas, we haven't seen any Prince William knockoffs.
