As a former teenager from the 80's (okay, I was 13 in 1989 but that counts), I can make some suggestions.
I would go for the early 80's valley girl look. Take a big sweatshirt and cut out the neck, then wear it off one shoulder. Pair it with a denim mini skirt, or just mid-calf spandex tights. Ideally, you want a double belt that goes around the sweatshirt just below your waist. Add leg warmers and jelly shoes. Or, frilly ankle socks with princess heel pumps. Hair should be in a side pony tail. For a really authentic early 80's look, at a headband around the forehead. Also, lots and lots of gummy bracelets and bangles.

Watch Fast Times at Ridgemont High for a glimpse. Other movies could be Revenge of the Nerds, the Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off. How 'bout a Boy George outfit?

You should go as a 80's hair band groupie!!! Lots of hairspray and heavy eye make-up black eyeliner. Try to get a tight band t-shirt and pair it with lots of bangle bracelets and a mini skirt with a large belt...maybe try to find a motercycle jacket or a jean jacket (add all sorts of small buttons with band names or funny sayings) and put a few small braids in your hair if its long, if its short, clip a braided hair extension on for a "rat tail"

Sweat pants tucked into two pairs of two different colored socks with tennis shoes. An old sweat shirt that you cut out the collar into a big V shaped neck. Whear your hair up in a pony tail on one side of your head with a scrunchy. Crimp your bangs and wear a bright color on your eyelids.

rat your bangs and spray the sides of it out like wings, wear shoulder pads, big hoop earrings, charm bracelets, ripped jeans, moon boots if you can find them, or brightly colored high topped sneakers--if you wear ripped jeans or a dress make sure you have black spandex biker shorts on underneath and that everyone can see them--it's very important. If you have short hair go for a flat topped look, and accessorize with bangles--we also used to tie bandannas around our leg

I found the link below for you.
Also, do some web searches for images of how Madonna looked in the 80s, as a lot of girls mimicked her.

BIG HAIR for sure. Aqua net hair spray is the best. You could try leg warmers, stir up pants, colored earrings. If you could find a shirt with tails that would be extreme.

Someone already mentioned Madonna and I have to agree - Halloween is about scary things and that was one scary chick! Totally eighties and completely grotesque.
