There are plenty of good reasons to dress up in costume. There's dress-up play, cosplay conventions, and of course Halloween! We happen to think it's a pretty unique and powerful sort of experience. It allows you to dress up as how you see yourself on the inside! Do you feel like a superhero that's just never been given the chance to shine? Then you can wear one of our Avengers-themed costumes. Are you a mild-mannered introvert with a wild streak? Then wearing a bold and daring costume can be a great way to express yourself! Costumes give you and your friends ways to express yourselves. They give you a way to share the characters you love with others. We think that's fun and we're the company that's all about FUN in capital letters! All it takes is a simple costume and that fun can begin! That's why we believe in the power of costumes…and it's why we carry a TON of different options for people with all sorts of interests!

The tough part about wearing a costume is actually choosing which one to get! With options from your favorite movies and some fantastic classic options, just selecting the one that's right for you might seem a little daunting. We're here to help you figure it out! This guide will go through some of our favorite picks as well as some great Halloween costume ideas for groups, couples, and more!

Costumes are tons of fun solo, but sometimes bringing friends along for the ride can be a great way to make an unforgettable experience! Of course, group costumes come in many different forms. Do you plan on heading out with all of your friends for an epic party, or are you trying to coordinate the family together for the most adorable fall family photo of all time? Maybe you just want something that you can wear for your first couples' Halloween date! Well, we've got some great options for anyone looking to coordinate a group costume.

Group Halloween Costumes

The trick to finding a great group costume is choosing something that has a strong theme but also allows for customization options. After all, each person will want to share a bit of their personality with their costume choice. You also want something that has a unified look. We have a few group costume ideas that do a great job of striking that balance. Grease can be an easy choice since it provides a simple uniform for both men and women, but our favorite choice for group costumes has to be the Care Bears! The 80s cartoon has so many characters to choose from and a variety of colorful styles, so everyone can be a different character who represents their personality, while still keeping the Care Bears theme.

Couples Halloween Costumes

One of the most exciting things during a relationship is when you get to select a unique couples' costume! It can be a little tough to choose a theme that both partners agree on, but we think classic is the way to go. Our selection of retro costumes will give you a strong theme to wear together, while still giving each person a lot of customizability to their look. The 20s are an awesome place to start if you want something classy. If you're more into loud and audacious colors, then an 80s couples costume can be another cool option.

Family Halloween Costumes

What about a whole family? Well, this is one of our favorite types of groups when it comes to costumes! Family Halloween costumes are a great conversation starter at costumes parties, and you can even create some pretty memorable family photos when everyone is dressed up in a coordinated look! Of course, the Incredibles lends itself pretty well for family photos, and it's remained one of our favorite choices since the first movie came out in 2004. Other Disney movies inspire family costume themes, as does Marvel's Avengers. It's really all about finding a group choice that fits the family attitude!

Of course, sometimes, you just need to indulge in your own costume ideas. Even when heading out with friends or family, you can't beat a costume that helps you showcase your unique personality! We think it's essential to express yourself, which is why we carry so many different Halloween costumes, with an exceptionally large selection for women. Everyone should be able to get a look that suits them, not only in personality but in style and body shape! It's all about choosing something that fits the mood and tone you want, so you can feel confident while heading out for a good time. We'll give you a couple of ideas to get those gears turning in your head!

Women's Plus Size Costumes

Some places don't carry a lot of sizes. Well, we think that's silly. After all, people come in all shapes and sizes, so why shouldn't costumes, too? That's why we carry plenty of women's plus size costumes. You'll be able to find a great selection of all your favorite characters in sizes and cuts that are designed to fit your body. Selecting a great outfit has never been easier!

So then, how should a guy go about choosing a costume? Do you want to be the life of the party and make everyone shake with laughter? Do you want to freak everyone out by dressing up as the latest horror movie villain? Maybe you just want a costume that makes you feel cool and confident. Well, you're totally free to express yourself as you see fit with our men's Halloween costumes. You can pick everything from outfits based on your favorite video games to some simple classics. For some ideas on specific themes, see our top choices below.

Funny Costumes for Men

What's the number one thing that guys ask for in a costume? "Is it funny?" It's pretty common for guys to select costumes that reflect their own sense of humor. Whether that means dressing up as their favorite cartoon characters or something a little more in the realm of adult humor, it's all up to you! The key is choosing something that you feel comfortable wearing, and that makes you laugh. Sticking to those key factors will help you share the chuckles all night long.

Scary Costumes for Men

The other popular choice for guys is scary! For a long time, scary Halloween costumes were the gold standard for dressing up. These days, there's a lot more flexibility when choosing Halloween costumes, but there's something alluring about scaring the pants off of your friends and family. We've got some of the classics, like skeletons, ghosts, and horror movie villains. We even have some special, exclusive costumes, made by our team of costume designers (like our Plague Doctor costume, which is not only freaky, but historical)! After all, nothing is scarier than the past.

Men's Plus Size Halloween Costumes

There's nothing worse than looking for that perfect costume, only to realize that they don't carry it in a size for you! Well, that stinks, and it's why we have a bolstered stock of sizing for people who don't necessarily fit in the so-called "standard" sizes. Our men's plus size costumes provide great looks for anyone who's big and tall, with classics from the WWE, Game of Thrones, Captain Hook, and even King Henry!

We can't talk about Halloween costumes without talking about costumes for kids. After all, as much as we adults like to indulge in costume parties and Halloween celebrations, the holiday truly is one that belongs to kids! So we gathered up some good ideas for all of the kids who haven't quite decided what they'd like to be this year! Just check out some of our top choices for costume ideas for kids.

Baby Halloween Costumes

Do you have a first Halloween coming up for a special new member of the family? How exciting! It's essential to make some great memories and take some adorable photos! A lot can go into choosing your baby's first costume. You'll want something warm and comfy, as well as something that will have your little infant looking cute as a button for photos. Animal costumes, like bunnies or baby bear costumes, are pretty classic and give a special nod to their favorite bedtime stories. You can even dress your little one up in our Stay Puft outfit to get them ready to join a family Ghostbusters theme costume!

And finally, we don't want to leave your puppers out for Halloween! Your dog loves to be a part of everything in your life, so you can bet that your doggo wants to join you for Halloween. We have some cute and classic dog costumes, like our USPS costume or our Where's Waldo costume, which are perfect for any pooch. If you're looking for something that you can share with your dog, then how about a duo costume? With our selection of Back to the Future costumes and our Marty McFly dog costume, you and your pup can be a coordinated combo! We also have Star Wars options for dogs and Winnie the Pooh, so you have tons of cool choices.
