Halloween is right around the corner. Sure, it’s easy to put off getting a costume and throw something together last minute, but if you want the hot looks this year, better grab them now!

Popular Halloween Costumes for Adults 2017

Women Costumes

The last couple years in entertainment have seen the rise of female power figures! What could be better than going as a strong, independent, female superhero (or anti-hero!) Classic costumes, such as a witch, cat, ghost, etc. are also making BIG comebacks in popularity. So try showing off some of that female strength!

Men’s Costumes

Men like to go for the funny, the great, or the easy costume typically. Pop advertising icon, Captain Obvious will probably replace The Most Interesting Man in the World this year. With the ‘IT’ remake releasing September 8th, Pennywise will be very popular. Looking for something a little more family friendly? Try Balthazar Brat, the despicable retro villain from ‘Despicable Me 3.’

Couples Costumes

Not everyone likes to pull off the coordination couple, but for those who do, there are a couple of popular trends this year. A PB&J. Yes. No, I don’t know why, but it’s everywhere. Plays on the male/female anatomy idea this year got an upgrade from the standard plug and outlet to the USB drive and plug. The absolute best is the Bob Ross and Painting. Clever, retro, and just plain awesome.
