The best celebrity Halloween costumes for 2019
Celebrities don’t do things by halves when it comes to Halloween costumes.
Not only do they have much more cash to splash than most, they also have fans to impress. A makeshift Wednesday Addams or Count Dracula costume just won’t cut it.
This Halloween, the stars have not failed to disappoint. Heidi Klum, who’s famous for her annual stand-out costumes, held her annual star-studded bash last year, for which she dressed up as a Frankenstein-alien hybrid.

As for the rest of the stars, take a look through our round-up to see who really stood out this year:
Kim Kardashian, Kanye West and children as the Flintstones

This family pic was such a challenge because Chicago was so scared of Dino! LOL We tried to explain and show her that it was just daddy but she didn’t get the concept yet! So shout out to the photographer for editing her in & making our family Flinstones dreams come true! pic.twitter.com/FwWwKVaPCo
