The 56 Best Celebrity Halloween Costumes
Thanks to social distancing, we expect creativity to be at an all-time high for celebrity Halloween costumes. First of all, it’s a legitimate excuse to wear something other than sweatpants. And second, trick-or-treating amid the coronavirus pandemic won’t be like previous years, which means costumes need to be even more photogenic than usual, so that we can show them off on the ‘Gram.
In honor of the fast-approaching holiday, we compiled a list of the 56 best celebrity Halloween costumes of all time. From Gabrielle Union channeling Bring It On to Rita Ora dressing as Post Malone, keep reading for costume inspiration.
