Best Halloween costumes so far

Halloween isn’t even here yet, but we’ve already seen lots of crazy, creative costumes at the pre-Halloween parties we’ve covered (Hallowbaloo Street Festival, Crazy, Sexy, GHOUL and more). This year, a few trends have come forth — superheroes (especially from the Avengers) and anything related to “Game of Thrones.”

Still need inspiration for your Halloween costume? Here are 12 that stood out.

Hands-down, the most elaborate costume we’ve seen all year. These guys said it took months (and it’s easy to see why) to collect enough cans and construct these surprisingly flexible outfits. A clear winner on effort alone.
