Each year, Spirit Halloween and other online retailers put out lists of the most popular costumes, and 2023 is shaping up to be the season of Barbie. (Are we really surprised?) Between Barbie, Wednesday, Ted Lasso, and other pop culture hits, we've compiled a list of the 13 most popular Halloween costumes for adults this holiday season!
Barbie
The biggest movie of the year is about to become the biggest Halloween costume of the year! From Western Barbie to Skating Barbie, even to Barbie in a box, you'll be rocking the pink in style this Halloween!
Ken
"I'm just Ken ..." Do a couple's costume and dress up as Ken to your friend or significant other's Barbie—do Western Ken or Skating Ken.
Wednesday Addams
Dance moves and black tulle will turn you into Wednesday Addams from the hit Netflix series this Halloween, and it'll be a scream. Don't forget Thing!

The Sanderson Sisters
"I put a spell on you ..." Hocus Pocus is a cult classic Halloween movie for three very distinct reasons: Winfred, Sarah, and Mary Sanderson.
