You'll need a classic Henley in a darker green shade. Black can work, too, of course. I picked a men's large, but any type will do, as long as you're comfortable. I'm a slightly larger woman, so men's felt more comfy for me.
Mens Cotton Long Sleeve Henley T-Shirt
You don't need a super fancy apron. Some that I found were quite pricey, to be honest. This fabric isn't the best, but it's for one night (well, it was for me), so it's good enough.
DDUP Adjustable Kitchen Apron with 2 Pockets
Gotta have some cargo pants. I actually couldn't get the correct colour that Dexter wears, but I think any colour will do if it's a green shade, a dark grey or black. We don't have to be so spot on all the time, right?
Willit Women's Lightweight Waterproof Cargo Trousers
Women's Cargo Pocket Casual Stretch Combat Pants
Any boots will look great, these are the ones I picked personally. They are super comfy so they will definitely be used beyond Halloween and wearing this outfit.
Maxome Women's Waterproof Black Ankle Boots
I've seen a lot of people dress as Dexter and use leather black gloves, but personally, I prefer these. I took several pairs (maybe around 10 gloves total) so that I could take them off and put new ones on throughout my night. Also, I think they look...
Black Nitrile Disposable Gloves, 100 Pack
Leather gloves option, if you prefer!
Long Keeper Mens Touch Screen Leather Gloves
If you wanna go all out, you could also add sleeves covers. Dexter wore these often to keep the blood off, ya know? :)
1 Pair Waterproof Oilproof Arm Sleeves

Fake blood is always fun! For my own outfit, I used an old toothbrush and flicked some fake blood over my neck and a little on my face, to try and give the effect of blood splattering on Dexter during a messy kill 🩸
Fake Blood Set: Spray, Drip & Gel 160ml
Another fake blood option!

Fake Blood by Moon Terror 10ml - Realistic Halloween Makeup
You'll definitely need a plastic knife of some kind. I chose this classic kitchen one, but you could also go for a butcher's knife, or anything else you can find..
VEYLIN 30cm Bloody Knife Halloween Prop
I didn't get a badge for my own costume, but I wish I had thought of it. Not sure why I didn't (lol). But a super fun and detailed addition to the costume!
Dexter Morgan Badge Dexter TV Show Costume Cosplay Employee ID (PDF, png)
I bought this purely because I thought it would be funny. Especially since I am a woman, and Dexter, of course, is not. I just figured it would get a laugh, and it did. I kept the mask after and just put in up in my house lol
FoxyPrinting Dexter Michael C. Hall Party Mask
Add a syringe in your apron pocket to represent Dexter knocking his victim's out! I couldn't find any options for a single syringe, which was annoying, but hopefully you can make use of the rest if you purchase a multipack. Personally, I didn't adda ...
OFFCUP 8pcs 10ml Plastic Syringes No Needle
Another syringe option! Of course, these are just pens!! So they're easy to have in clubs on Halloween, and also... you have a pen if you need it (lol). A very fun detail to add to your costume.
Medinc Medical Blister Pack - 2 Syringe Pens & 40 Plaster Sticky Notes
Extra detail! Blood slides! Put a little bit of fake blood, and you'll look like you just took out a victim 🩸
HANTANSE 50 Slides & 100 Cover Glasses Set
I didn't personally add a face shield to my Dexter outfit. But again, another fun detail!

If you wanna go bonkers, get yourself an inflatable dead body in a bag.... why not?
