2017’s Most Adorable Infant Costumes for Baby’s First Halloween


Halloween is way more fun when you have a baby to dress up. It’s true — an itty-bitty costumed cutie is the ultimate treat on Oct. 31. No trick here — just pure, unadulterated adorableness. From sweet and sassy costumes for a baby girl (hello there, wee little Wonder Woman) to giggle-worthy getups for your mini munchkin of a man, you’re going to want to buy every last infant Halloween costume you lay your eyes on. And why not? Now is the time to take advantage of your ability to make all the dress-up decisions. Make the most of it and take lots of photos, because before you know it your go-with-the-flow flamingo will turn into an opinionated Elsa, insisting on wearing the same “Frozen” costume as every other kid on the block year after year. Until then, you have the ultimate doll to dress up this Halloween: your very own baby boo!
