Kim Kardashian has always had a penchant for dressing up. Naturally, that eye has transferred to her annual Halloween costumes too. Over the years, the mogul has successfully pulled off costumes based on fictional characters (everyone from Mystique to Wonder Woman), makeup-heavy looks (her 2014 skeleton was bone-chilling), and actual, real-life people.
In 2018, she joined her sisters as a fleet of Victoria’s Secret Angels and has often went with two or more looks looks in one year—like in 2017, when she wore three in one weekend. The only Kardashian family member to rival that cavalcade of looks might be Kylie Jenner, whose Christina Aguilera costume remains a seminal moment in Kardashian Halloween history.
