Store employees showcased the year's most popular looks.

The Halloween season is the busiest time of the year at Savers thrift store in Manchester. Many shoppers are searching for clothing items to make their own costumes, and Savers has brought in new costumes and accessories to help their customers put together an imaginative outfit without spending a fortune.

At 3 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 27, a "Halloween Costume Catwalk Fashion Show" was put on by store employees, including a parade through the store.

Savers partners with Big Brothers, Big Sisters of Southwest Connecticut and Hartford/Springfield for their inventory.
