Halloween will be here soon and for us Halloween enthusiasts, it’s never too early to start thinking about this year’s costume. In fact, we have been thinking about it since last Halloween. Some of the most popular costumes this year for kids, adults, groups and couples are Super Hero costumes. Or, Super Villains, because let’s face it, the Super Heroes would be unemployed without them. Here are some costumes that are predicted to be popular this year and a few ideas. Super Hero/Super Villain costumes are always Super Popular with kids and adults! This year Harley Quinn, from ‘The Suicide Squad’, Black Widow, Captain Marvel, Cruella de Vil, WandaVision Wanda, are all popular choices with the release of recent movies and TV shows. And of course, the classics like Batman, Spiderman, Superman, and Wonder Woman never go out of style. Group costumes, are a fun way to get creative with friends and family a few popular online suggestions included Toy Story Group costumes, The Spice Girls or The Golden Girls, Superhero Group, Disney Villain Group, Flintstones or Scooby Doo Group, Ghostbusters, Game of Thrones Group, Tacky Tourist Group, and Star Wars and Star Trek and Care Bears were among the favorites.
DIY and simple costumes are always unique and fun! Sometimes you can find great accessories in a thrift store, your closet or just a few pieces of material will work. One of the most suggested costume ideas this year is a roaring 20s flapper. “Photo filters” was another great idea using some makeup, a few accessories and a cardboard cut-out. A bunch of grapes or gumballs can be created by using balloons. And a Rubix cube can be created by simply using a box and some paint. And my personal favorite DIY costume idea; Dr. Seuss’ Thing 1, Thing 2 and Thing 3 can be achieved with a printed sticker, blue fuzzy headband, red shirt and black pants. We are looking forward to seeing your creative and fun Halloween costumes this year!
