Halloween is just around the corner, and while you’re still trying to think of what you’ve got in your slightly-worn dress-up box that’ll totally work for another year, celebs are proving exactly how it’s done.
(Of course, these people have time, money, assistants to buy things and a vested interest in doing something insanely cool. But that doesn’t mean we’re not going to aspire to them, anyway.)
If you’re still looking for a little inspo this year, take guidance from celebs of years past. TBQH, we could dedicate entire lists to the Queen and First Family of Halloween (Heidi Klum and Neil Patrick Harris / David Burtka, naturally), but for now, just bask in the wonder that is some truly extra costumes.
