Title: Good Outfit
Date: Oct 28, 2008
Everything was assembled quite well but the gloves were too small for a Medium to Extra Large Person to wear. Be warned you might have to buy gloves separately, but it is well worth it!

Title: For a theatrical touch
Date: Oct 05, 2008
I've had something of a mad scientist fixation lately, so when Halloween started rolling around, I knew exactly what I wanted to dress up as. The problem was finding the proper labcoat. I searched the internet quite a bit, and found many options. Real, professional labcoats, used by real doctors and scientists every day. But none of them really screamed "MAD!"
That's where buycostumes.com came in. For a more realistic outfit, you should buy from a real medical supplier. This one is strictly for the theatrical.
This ankle-length multi-buttoned number is not something you'll see a real scientist in, but that's sort of the point, isn't it?
The gloves are an indispensable detail, and I was very pleased to find them included. They are over-sized and rubbery. I wouldn't be surprised if they are actual lab safety gloves.
I did have a couple problems with this outfit, however. First of all, while the labcoat fits fine, the belt is impossible for me to wear. If you are a bit on the large side, don't count on the belt being an essential part of your ensemble.
Secondly, one of the gloves is discolored. While the left glove is pure black, the right one appears to be covered in white powder. Unfortunately, it does not wash off so I can only conclude it is some sort of flaw in the material.
All in all, despite these flaws, I am quite satisfied with my purchase.
