Though costumes such as a princess, rabbit, pirate, superhero, witch and dinosaur are nothing new, the popularity of getups like Harley Quinn, a unicorn, Spider-Man and Fortnite are a bit more grounded in what has been trending in recent years.

Harley Quinn is, of course the Suicide Squad character that was portrayed by Margot Robbie in the 2016 movie, whereas Spider-Man, despite appearing in several films over the last few years, has likely remained a popular costume thanks to Tom Holland's turn as the hero in 2017's Spider-Man: Homecoming.
And even though mythical unicorns have been fascinating for years, the creatures are making a comeback thanks to their colorful manes, which are tailor-made for Instagram.
Last, but not least, Fortnite is a character from the wildly popular video game of the same name. The characters are bound to be recognizable to the throngs of fans, and since there are so many to choose from, going as figures from Fortnite has the potential to be an awesome group costume.
If you love to follow trends and haven't picked a costume just yet, here's hoping this list has given you some inspiration. Even if you have chosen a costume that didn't make the cut, there's still time to change your mind!
