Halloween seems like an age away, but skip the last-minute costume shopping this year and prepare your look now to save a lot of stress before the party invitations start rolling in!
Each year, costume trends reflect what’s currently happening in Hollywood, so you can expect to see plenty of Deadpool, Wolverine, and Garfield looks.
And with Beetlejuice expected to be one of the highest-grossing films of the year, you can rest assured that characters from the original film and its sequel will be popping up throughout.
This year’s pop culture-inspired looks will take inspiration from headline-grabbing stars and events, from the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders to the Paris Olympics’ breakdancing antihero, Raygun.
As far as couples looks go, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are sure to inspire a wave of lookalikes. Whether the smartly dressed couples out there opt for the singer’s stage looks or her more casual game day outfits, one thing is for sure: it’s the perfect costume for the couple’s “Travis” – just add a Kansas City Chiefs jersey and you’re set.
Harley Quinn and Joker costumes will also be a hit with couples this year, as The Joker: Folie à Deux hits theaters on October 4, just weeks before the holiday.
Classic themes are always in fashion, so you can stay traditional with a vampire, ghost or other monster-inspired costume.
