Not bad but not accurate
Of course one wouldn't expect the great detail of the original costume in a bargain-priced copy, but this leaves a bit to be desired. As noted by greatfun and others, it took forever to unpack this item because the painted-on floral details stuck to each other, to the fabrics, and the package itself. The costume fits well enough and the colors are a good match for the original. But the sleeves are much too long and the pattern-on-black portion two or three times wider than the original. I can't find a movie still of the full-length costume so I can't comment on the lengths. The belt tie is solid and too short (the original was patterned and much longer). The neckline should wrap asymmetrically, but seems to either close completely up or fall open. The headpiece is a nice accessory--better than nothing--but incorrectly proportioned compared to the original. Easy to get in and out of this costume, with lightweight elastic waist and comfortable fabrics. Good value at sale price. Also a good base piece if you like to make your own embellishments. Wish they had made the overcoat from the movie as well. Guess that's my next project!
