Phantom of the Opera is pretty easy to do and well known.
Or Glinda/Elpheba from Wicked
Elder Price from BOM. Easy, cheap, and slightly recognizable?
Anyone from Hamilton. Buy a generic Revolutionary period costume and you're set.
Heathers? (Off-Broadway but still)
newsies?
waitress?
Annie from ANNIE
Caroline from CAROLINE, OR CHANGE
Eva Perón from EVITA
Any cat from CATS
Norma Desmond from SUNSET BLVD
What do you look like and what's your age range? It's hard to recommend costumes if we don't know if you wear dresses, are a teenager, etc.

I'm looking to be Evan Hansen for Halloween this year, and I already have the pants and can make the cast. However, I can't find a decent replica of Evan's blue and black striped polo shirt. Does anyone have any idea where I could buy one or something similar? I've scoured the internet and haven't found anything suitable yet.

Natasha or Sonya are easy costumes in my opinion.

Do either of these work? It's certainly not exact but it might be close enough for a costume to at least give people the idea?

Colton said on IG that it is Lands End. It’s no longer on their website. I’ve looked everywhere too. The billabong ^^ looks the closest. Here is one that is super cheap

Dress up like a certain successful director but wear all green. Get some padding for around your middle and wear a stem in your head. Ta-da: Bartlett Pear (Sher)

How do you suggest doing this? My friend and I would love to make Natasha and Sonya costumes for Halloween or potential cosplaying, but neither of us can sew or have particularly big budgets.
And for the OP, some shows that could have cool costumes with varying degrees of ease and cost:
Anything Goes
Bonnie and Clyde
Beautiful: A Carole King Musical
Cabaret
Chicago
A Chorus Line
Fiddler on the Roof
Grease
Hairspray
Into the Woods
Just wear a giant Groundhog costume
Little Women
Little Shop of Horrors
Les Miserables
Matilda the Musical
Newsies
Thoroughly Modern Millie

Charlie would be a great group costume (the kids, an Oompa Loompa, Willy Wonka, etc)
BOM - go with a friend and wear short sleeved white shirts with black ties and pants and backpacks.

You could shoot for Hamilton costumes- if you're willing to put up with period costumes. Jefferson and his purple velvet could be oodles of fun.
