These Family Halloween Costumes Are Sure to Impress All Your Neighbors in 2021

They may not be the catwalks of Paris, but come October 31st, the streets of America come alive with their very own fashion show. Competition in the Halloween costume game is fierce, especially when it comes to Halloween costumes for families, and that means you need to be on the top of your stuff to fight for the “best in the neighborhood” prize. If you’re part of a family or group of friends and are really looking to up your game this year, it’s time to embrace the group costume.

The advantages of a group costume are numerous. By adding extra characters to a costume idea, you can turn a tortoise into the tortoise and the hare, change a standalone pig into your favorite children’s story, or give your lovely Captain America the backup he needs by forming the galaxy’s greatest band of defenders.

Another idea to make your family Halloween costume idea stand out from the crowd is to utilize costumes for kids and costumes for pets. As many celebrities have already demonstrated, adding a baby’s cuteness into the equation can be the difference between a mediocre attempt and one that the neighbors can’t help but swoon over.

We’ve put together a list of our favorite Halloween costume ideas for families. From choices for family units with babies to others with a focus on teens, no matter who you’ve got in your party this Halloween, we’ve got a family Halloween costume ensemble to ensure your group looks great.

1. Star Wars

Cute one, your child. For a family Halloween costume that will never go out of style even in a galaxy far, far away, let every family member pick their favorite Star Wars character.
