Sexy Chicago costume ideas

👋 Hi, it's Justin. If you're still searching for a cool costume with Halloween just a week away, you may want to check out the Tribune's list of Chicago-themed outfits.

The one problem: They forgot that these days, every costume has a more popular "sexy" version.

• At some point, we moved on from scary nurses and vampires to sexy medical workers and blood suckers.

Burning question: Does this trend translate to Chicago-inspired costumes? You decide.

Sexy gubernatorial candidate

This comes in two styles: One involves a flannel work shirt (sleeveless), jeans (cutoffs) and a rake from your garage. Extra points if you can drive a tractor to your Halloween party.

• For the second, pair an Elvis wig with your finest suit while holding a plunger.

Sexy Dibs enforcer

The costume: Picking up the trash left behind after a snowstorm melts away can be a pretty unsexy job.

• So spruce it up with an alluring municipal worker uniform, a wool hat and a folding chair. Streets and San fashion never looked so good!

Sexy Italian beef

The costume: What's sexier than felt taped to your bare skin while you're wearing an oversized bun coat and asking, "Wet or dry?"

• Channel Carmy in "The Bear," and don't forget the hot giardiniera.
• Extra points for seductively wrapping yourself in deli paper.

Sexy Tony La Russa

The costume: Get some tight baseball pants, sexy stirrups, mullet wig and a Sox cap.

• Extra points for waving goodbye while dozing off.
