Great Quality Costume!

Oct 16, 2008

I am always leery buying halloween costumes, I usually thrift store them myself, but this is a sure find! It's really fantastic quality. I read other reviews on this site, but I'd reccomend ordering this costume true to your size. I'm a size 10 regularly, and the medium was a perfect fit. I'm also tall (5'9'') and it's long. It comes with a full petticoat for the skirt part and the corset ties on the front are also adjustable. I actually didn't buy this to dress up as a vampire; I can tell you that you can remove the spidery web arm things quite easily if that's what anyone didn't like. It's a beautiful costume, shipped out very well, and comes with it's own garment bag. You get what you pay for. And Halloween only comes once a year. :)

Fits perfectly!

Oct 07, 2008

I ordered this costume in a size L along with the Gothic Vampira Elite in a size XL because I wasn't sure which would fit better (I am a size 14 woman) and I wanted to know what the actual difference between the Elite and the Ultimate Elite versions was. I am going to keep this costume and return the XL Elite version because I think that this costume is a much better fit. The dress on the XL Elite version was a little bit too short to cover the top of the included petticoat but the length of this dress is perfect. The sleeves were a bit tight on the XL Elite version as well but this costume fits me perfectly. The costume looks exactly like the picture, including the color. The only other difference that I can tell between the Elite and the Ultimate Elite aside from the fit is the quality of the petticoat. This costume offers a much fuller version. The only downside is that the petticoat is pulling off at the waistband and needs some quick stitching to fix it. Nothing major at all, though. Overall I am very pleased with this purchase and would recommend it to others.

I would not have purchased the correct size had I not read the reviews on this site! Compared with the other Gothic Vampire costume (in bright red and black), this one runs really big. The XL in the other was too snug but the L in this style was PERFECT. Thansk, buycostumes.com, for soliciting feedback. It proved very helpful in getting the right costume. Add fangs, a black vampiress wig and some heavy eyeliner and I'm ready for the 31st!

Fabulous Vampire Wear

This costume fits beautifully and is very well made. Looks exactly like the provided photo. I also like the storage garment bag to keep it safe in the closet. I will enjoy wearing it.

Beautiful costume!

Sep 14, 2008

I originally ordered this costume through another website, but have come back to buycostumes.com to buy accessories and even a costume for next year, since I was so happy with the quality of this dress. It even came in a heavy plastic garment bag with a zipper - I was impressed. The quality of the costume and fit are great! (the only thing I might change is adding a zipper to the dress) Beautiful fabric, the lace underskirt is very full (you could probably use it under another dress if you needed one). I love the way the lace drapes on the sleeves. I'm really looking forward to wearing this!
