Decent Costume for Price

Jan 28 2011

For the price paid this is a decent costume. I am usually hesitant to buy “one-size-fits-all” items as I am at the heavy end of “All” (a bottom heavy 5’6”, 160 lbs). Accept for being a little tight in the hips/thighs and extremely short, this costume actually fits really well. I will definitely have to wear either a pair of shorts or tights under it as there is no way that it is covering the bits I don’t particularly want to display to the world (tall women beware!). The torso fits perfectly – there is a gathered stretch area in the back that will allow it to expand or contract as needed for a good fit. As for quality - The material is very light weight, which is not necessarily a con, simply something to be aware of. When I first took it out of the package I was concerned that it would be too see-through, however once the costume was on it was totally fine. The only other concern that I had was that the stitching that keeps the net overlay attached to the skirt had come apart on one side. This was a quick fix with a needle and thread so not a huge concern. Note that the “headpiece” is simply a headband with velcro closure. I will definitely be doing some embellishing. If you’re looking for a good costume that will give you a starting point, this one is a winner. It is comfortable to wear as the material is soft and a bit stretchy. Because the fabric is light, if you’re planning to wear it to a party with a lot of people you aren’t going to overheat. I love the amount of detailing on the torso. The fabric is also slightly ruched which is great if you're self-conscious about your mid-section. It also has a full back (it is not low cut).

Idea as to Sizing

Nov 15 2010

This is a very cute costume. The size may run small but I am 5'4 & 120 lbs and the medium is perfect on me except the bust area is a little big. (i am a 34B) But it's totally doable, no adjustments needed, good length. The material feels cheapy but it doesn't look like it. Best to buy when you get some kind of discount.

loved it!

I loved this costume. Since it was one size fits all, i had to alter it to fit me. I'm 5'7 and 130 lbs, it was loose in the back. I wouldn't recommend it to people on the heavy side. Very short, but wearable.
