Which Halloween costumes are best?

Halloween is only a week away, so if you're a last-minute sort of person, you're going to want to get moving on your costume. 

Thanks to online shopping, finding a Halloween costume is easier than ever. However, you still don't want to wait much longer to secure that perfect Halloween 'fit.

In this article: Halloween Mask and Skeleton Gloves Set,  Rubie's Adult Original Inflatable Dinosaur Costume and Rubie's Supergirl TV Show Costume

How to find a Halloween costume

Halloween costumes are typically divided into five categories: men's, women's, babies', boys' and girls'. No matter the category, you should keep sizing in mind as costumes, regardless of body type, typically use their own unique sizing charts. Consult the chart and read reviews if you are ordering online and can't see the costume in person. Odds are, a costume may run a bit small and it would be a good idea to size up when you order. 

When shopping for Halloween costumes, the most important thing to keep in mind is what kind of event you'll be attending. For example, if you’re going to a kid-friendly neighborhood Halloween party, it's best to avoid costumes that are risque or realistic and scary. On the flip side, if you're going to a huge event at a bar or club or a college house party, something kid-friendly may stick out like a sore thumb.

Halloween costume cost

Children's costumes usually cost less than adults, typically topping at around $60. This is compared to adults', which can cost $100-plus. Meanwhile, the lows for children and adults are roughly $10 and $20 respectively.
