Trying to determine what XL Means?

Oct 26 2010

Ok the coat is great! I am 6'1" and a little over 200 lbs. The coat fits very well and seems to be made of some substance. The hat is wierd. It is this foam thing and I have a med to small head when it comes to hats. This is too small for me to wear. The pants caused me to laugh out loud. They are HUGE!! I could invite 3 friends to join me in these things. Not sure how they took the picture for the advert but there is enough material there for a ships sails. The "shirt" insert is ok and should do the trick.

Hard to Find...

Oct 20 2010

I basically bought this costume for the purple jacket and vest. I am having my husband wear khaki pants and bought a more expensive looking top hat. I know this costume is hard to find but expect to purchse other items to make it look more authentic.

Happy with purchase

Aug 14 2010

I was happy with the purchase. I needed this quickly for a play. Delivery was great since I knew I would need time to alter the size since the smallest in an adult size was a Men's medium. I would purchase again from this site when needed.

Luckily the customer service is good

Nov 03 2007

When we got the costume, the hat was missing. The customer service associate was very helpful and fedexed it to make sure I got it in time for our costume party. However I was very dissapointed in the workmanship of the jacket. The lapels were not distinctly notched as pictured, the vest and bow tie were completely different colors. I know that the product description said that the colors may vary, but they were more clownish than Willie Wonka-ish. The CSR was very helpful when I told her I was unhappy with the jacket, and made it up to me. I definitely would buy again from buycostumes.com. Though the jacket was sloppy, it did fit my 6'3" husband. The hat was small so if you have a big noggin, you might want to purchse one seperately.

OK Costume

Oct 02 2007

The Jacket is the best part. But it might be worth getting a purple coat, but for the price the rest of the costume is not great. for $40 - $50 max it is a good costume. Hat and Coat are fun and good but pants and vest are strange. Look into making your own, but almost worth for hat and coat. Cost should come down though.

Horrible quality

Sep 18 2007

I bought this costume for Halloween 2005 and regretted it from the moment I received the package. The vest was a dickie style and the elastic that was to go around my neck was so stretched that it hung halfway down my chest with no way to tighten it. The jacket was a misshapen piece of purple fabric with no defined collar whatsoever. The hat wouldn't fit my head and I have an average sized circumference. Lastly. the pants were large enough for me and my wife to fit into each leg. I had to resew the neck strap for the vest. I then had to purchase another hat from a local shop made of felt and use my own pants. The jacket was hopeless but I made due as best as I could. I HIGHLY suggest avoiding this costume considering the high price. Maybe they've upped the quality since 2005, but I doubt it.
