The beauty of Halloween is that it evolves throughout the different stages of a person’s life. Young adults, parents and children have fun while celebrating in different ways. Some people love the candy. Others love the costumes. Some love seeing the joy on their kid’s face while trick or treating. Some people love getting drunk and going to a party. Our favorite part about Halloween, though, is dressing up! Are you considering dressing up in a pizza-themed costume this Halloween? We HIGHLY encourage it.
Our resource is designed to get you inspired and help you create the perfect pizza slice costume (for yourself, a significant other, a child or a pet) or to just buy one quickly for your Halloween party.

Children Pizza Costumes
No one enjoys Halloween more than children. It’s a magical time filled with family, spookiness, candy, and — of course — plenty of opportunities to eat pizza.
As kids grow up, they’ll get the chance to pick out their own type of costume. Pizza is a food enjoyed by all ages, so we aren’t surprised that there are plenty of examples of kids dressed as pizza.

Corgis are automatically adorable no matter what they wear, and this pup in a pizza costume is no exception. Just look at that face!
Cat Pizza Costumes
While cats may be a bit more reluctant to put a costume on for Halloween, some are more tolerant than others. If there’s one thing people possibly like taking photos of more than themselves, it’s their pets.
We’ll assume that the below cats are perfectly fine with being dressed up, and no humans were harmed in the making of these pictures.

We predict that the costume was taken off approximately 10 seconds after this photo was taken.
