They say imitation is flattery, right? Use this guide to create fun costumes that show off your hometown pride this Halloween.
Butterfly
You’ll fit right in at the Butterfly Pavilion (6252 W 104th Ave.) and have the whole neighborhood buzzing!
Savery Savory Mushroom Tower
You’ll be the most spore-tacular fungi at the party if you dress as Westminster’s iconic tower. Check it out for inspiration at (3092 W 111th Dr.)
Big Ben of the West
Show everyone that London has nothing on Westminster’s bell tower. For added effect, you could even wear some speakers and play your favorite song at the top of each hour. You can strike a pose next to the real bell tower at City Hall. (4800 W 92nd Ave.)
Bald Eagle
You’ll be the most majestic person at your Halloween party. If you get dressed up and stop by Standley Lake (100th Ave. & Simms St.), you might even fool the family of bald eagles that lives there.
Birdwatcher
This will make a perfect partner costume to go with the bald eagle. Standley Lake is a great place to spot all sorts of birds including pelicans, cranes, loons, and other waterfowl.
You can even sign up for a birdwatching tour at bit.ly/westynatureprograms.
Hot Air Balloon
This is a throwback to when Westminster Mall used to be the place to sip an Orange Julius and be seen. If people remember one thing from that mall, it’s the hot air balloons. Although we can’t bring the mall back, we guarantee you’ll turn heads in this costume.
