From the Ghoulish to the Glamorous, These Are the Best, Most Outrageous Celebrity Halloween Costumes of 2019

While there are certainly no shortages of Halloween costumes modeled after celebrities and their distinctive styles, celebrities themselves have been getting very into the costume game themselves, dressing to the nines for fall’s most thrilling holiday.

While some, like Halloween legend Heidi Klum, have already gotten into the spirit with spooky designer duds ahead of her annual Halloween bash where she’ll famously debut yet another over-the-top costume, plenty of other celebs have already brought their A game to Halloween festivities. Look no further than new mama Gabrielle Union, who referenced one of her most beloved roles by dressing up as Bring It On cheerleader Isis in a matching costume with baby Kaavia James. Meanwhile, Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake went meta while making a case for the non-cheesy couples costume with Biel dressing as Timberlake at the height of his boy band fame in *NSYNC, while Timberlake came attired as her microphone.
