The Best Off The Rack Plus Size Halloween Costumes

There's a lot to be said about people who make their own Halloween costumes — it takes effort, time and skill to craft an entire costume all by yourself. As cool as that route is, buying an off the rack plus size Halloween costume can be just as rad. Even without a glue gun and glitter, you can bring your ideas to life — and luckily, there are plenty of off the rack costumes to make your plus size Halloween dreams come true.

That said, finding a good off the rack Halloween costume in the right size can feel overwhelming, especially for plus babes who have a hard time finding clothes in their size the rest of the time, too. Though some Halloween costume sizing can vary, shopping online and reading reviews can be more than helpful when you're not finding the killer costume you want in-store. For plus babes, shopping never feels easy, but a store bought costume could be the quick and easy way to achieve the perfect plus size Star Wars outfit you've been dreaming of all year.

Whether you're entering a Halloween costume contest this year, or just want to kill the Halloween game to show off your festive spirit, these are the best plus size off the rack costumes on the internet. Happiness and Halloween realness are just a few clicks away.
