Halloween 2007: Funniest Halloween Costumes for Adults

Sabah Karimi
Choices, choices. Whether you decide to turn into the Jolly Green Giant or become a walking flip phone instead, float through a Halloween parade in an inflatable sumo costume, or just transform into Amy Winehouse for the night, this Halloween offers plenty of reasons not to hold back on the year's funniest getups. They may be laughing at you as you parade around in your hilarious outfit, but you'll be the one winning the costume contest and taking home the largest bag of Halloween treats. Here are some of the funniest Halloween costumes for Halloween 2007:

1. Hello, My Name is Halloween Costume
No, it's not a Slim Shady costume; this one's for all those people who truly enjoy wearing those .'Hello, My name is. . .' badges at conferences, meetings, and get-togethers, this costume turns you into the nametag itself and requires no introduction whatsoever.

2. Inflatable Sumo Halloween Costume
You'll need to plan on extra space to move around in this one since the costume blows up to almost triple your body size (unless you're already of sumo proportions), equipped with a battery pack to inflate itself after you've strapped yourself in--a definite crowd pleaser.

3. Giant Banana Costume. If you're a fan of the Chiquita banana, this one's for you; the giant banana is made of a soft velvet/foam material, a one-piece costume with a hole cutout just large enough for your head to peek through. While it's not the most comfortable costume for Halloween, it's definitely a head-turner (just not yours)

4.Blow Pop Sucker Costume. Candy and blow pop enthusiasts will love this costume, a giant Blow Pop wrapper that turns into a shirt and head covering to turn you into a walking sucker! lollipop.

5. Jolly Green Giant Halloween Costume. And you thought this jolly fella only made a case for himself in the grocery aisle! The green giant comes alive with this costume, complete with oversized green velvet booties so you can plod around in true form. Can of corn optional.

6. Photo Flip Phone Halloween Costume. Even though iPhone mania has led you to ditch your old-style flip phone, there's no better way to re-live the memories than dressing up as a digital cell phone yourself. This costume straps onto your outfit to flip open with a cute message or your own picture that slides into the clear sleeve.

7. The Trainwreck Amy Winehouse Halloween Costume. This one's for the more creative types, a simple compilation of a beehive wig, extreme application of eyeliner, tattoos, and a tiny dress with ballet slippers. It needs no formal pre-packaged outfit, and can easily be pulled together with supplies from a Halloween party store.Turn up the comedic factor this Halloween with a couple of these outfits for that next get-together; you're sure to win at least one or two costume contests--or just turn a few heads!
