As a mom of three, I love the magic of Halloween – the pumpkins, the excitement of going out after dark, and of course… the costumes! But let’s be honest: between work, school, and after-school activities, I don’t always have the time (or patience) to sew or DIY elaborate outfits.
Luckily, more and more Swiss families are celebrating Halloween, which means costumes are easy to find – both online and in shops like Manor, Coop and H&M, even Aldi and Lidl during October. And for those of us who prefer second-hand, Petit Marche, Ricardo, Tutti, or local Facebook groups are full of great deals.
This year I looked at the list of trending Halloween costumes and picked the ones that are simple, fun, and easy to get in Switzerland – no hot glue gun required.
