I love in Israel, and noticed that this year there didn't seem to be one super dominant costume.
About 5 years ago, it was unicorns. Then 3ish years ago it changed to Bambi/deer. This year it would be hard to pin down what was the most popular costume.

I saw poop emoji lollipops in stores, which I found very off putting. Also Llama doo candy dispenser, where candy is coming out of you can guess what.

I saw a teenager in a Starbucks apron and got really excited for about 10 seconds, thinking Hertzliya must have opened a new Starbucks. Then I realized I'd been Purim'd 😂 |
Why would someone wear their Purim costume if it's not Purim there?

The most creative I saw was a family of snowglobes with each person a different place. Looked handmade and amazing. Their poem was this, personal details removed: (no it's not mine lol I just saw it on a local group)
Trotting the globe

Edit: here's a link to some of them from a public website https://collive.com/wp-content.....8.jpg
Edit 2: I just saw that they're on Instagram on the onlysimchas costume contest. For whoever wants to see the whole family https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp.....2M2Y= |
These snowglobe costumes are so insanely beautiful! Wish I could have seen this IRL.

What (young) kid wants to be a poop emoji? Or a battery ? Starbucks barista? I can't imagine one of my kids picking such an outfit. Let them be pirates, cops, princesses, ...
(and I'm not against themes - we do themes most years except when the kids cant agree on what theme they want) |
I agree, I had a theme idea but my kids had other costumes they all wanted to be, and I didn’t want to force them to be a theme just for a good picture on social media.

I saw a little girl (probably around 4-5 years old) dressed like a kallah and her big sisters (teens) wearing sister of bride sweaters.
