'Game of Thrones' costumes hot for Halloween

Halloween is next week and each year there's the new hottest costume that you can't avoid seeing. Entertainment Weekly compiled a list of costumes they think you will see this year. Here are a few.

Handmaid's costumes are expected to make hit after the gained popularity of Emmy Award winning “The Handmaids Tale” streaming series. The magazine said this costume should be "… the easiest you could scrape together in a pinch: A sheet of red fabric, a pair of flats, one of those cute visors…. "

Next is Wonder Woman. This Marvel heroine was popular for summer and is sounding off again for fall in costumes. It will be interesting to see the different versions on the super hero.

Then there are Pregnant Kardashians. No. I didn’t expect to see this one on the list either, but with the latest news breaking that more than one of the sisters are allegedly pregnant at the same time has sparked some public interest. After ten plus years in the limelight, these girls are still genius at finding new ways to stay relevant. But they’re not the only ones who know the art of staying power.

Another celebrity thought to be a top costume is Taylor Swift. Different looks and character versions of her are expected to be a hit.

According to Pinterest, here are some other popular culture costume predictions to expect this year: The scary clown Pennywise from the movie “It,” different versions of unicorns, giraffes, hippie's, “Baywatch” babes and “Game of Thrones” characters.
