Dust off your broomstick, it’s that time of year again. Spooky season is upon us and it’s time to dig out your favourite Halloween outfit.
But before you resign yourself to last year’s get up, global fashion search platform Lyst has predicted the ten Halloween costumes that you’ll be seeing a lot of this year.
They analysed online shopping behaviour of more than 104 million shoppers across 12,000 fashion brands and retailers, as well as social media mentions and engagement statistics worldwide since January to determine which celebs, characters and political references were most popular.
As a result, they’ve estimated that this year the following costumes will crop up again and again:

Union Jack prints are trending, apparently, likely as a result of the Brexit date colliding with Halloween. Bags, clothing and shoes adorned with the British flag have seen a 138% increase in interest year on year.
2. Lizzo
