Love this costume!!
Ordered for a Halloween party. Got it 3 days earlier than expected and it was well packaged. Haven't worn yet, but I love this costume!😀 I would suggest ordering your regular size. I normally wear a large but I got xlrg just to be on the safe side. I love the way the coat fits. Im 5'9 and it touches the floor in the back. The vest is stretchy and a little too big, but I will make it work! The skull fell off the belt, but nothing a little glue couldn't fix. The hat is in 3 pieces and fastens with velcro. Easy to put together. Be careful if u wear a wig, though, because it may not fit. Will add photos and update review after Halloween party.😁UPDATE: Costume was a hit!! Had to make a few alterations, but it worked out nicely. The buttons didnt line up with the button holes so I removed them and put them on correctly. Gave it a good steaming. Used a different wig and added stuff to it. Used a cane instead of the one in the sellers photo. Did my best with the face paint!😆 Also added the eyes!!😁 Again....the best Costume ever!! Loved it!!❤❤

Excellent value, great base to build from!
This costume is a very good value! It comes with enough to build on - vest, top coat, top hat, scarves, belt and necklace. It's very wrinkled but once ironed, it looks great. I had to trim loose threads but nothing major. I made my own "staff" and dread wig but once everything was together, it was a hit! You even get a basic instruction sheet for makeup, but I practiced and tweaked it to my own preference. Great costume, highly recommend. For reference, I'm 5"2, 145 and the medium fit perfectly.

Good Deal! Almost true to size
I think this is a great bargain for the money! Just opened the package to try on since I ordered a small (was concerned about sizing). The vest fit fine.... it’s a pull over made of thin slightly stretchy material.... I’m a 34c bra size and still had room for more boobs if I had some. My waist is 28 -29 inches. This was my saving grace with the coat.....1-2 more inches and I would not have been able to button the coat. I’m a pear shaped big booty girl (hip 41”) so the openness of the coat tail was perfect (and why chose it). The tail comes lined with petti coat material to plump hips and booty but it’s too much for me since I’m naturally thick so I might cut it out. The top hat comes in 3 pcs that you have to assemble. Looks good once you put it together.If you are a heavy handed, rough, clumsy type of personality..... you might tear this costume up just putting it on. But I’m meticulous and precise with things so not a problem for me.Comes with DIY makeup instructions booklet. You can buy the makeup from dollar tree.Monkey hand necklace (plastic beads, hand strung on a stretchy band)Bones strung on a stretchy band to be worn around hips. 2 sashes to tie around hips2 sashes to tie around hat.

Beautiful but you Need the Accessories!
This was what I would consider a little bit expensive but it was worth it!You have to order the accessories mostly separately which makes the costume even more expensive than the costume itself, but I tried to mimic the girl in the picture as best as possible because I LOVE the execution in the advertisement.I skipped the face paint because I did it horribly but it would have been a great touch!First picture is when I tried it on with the outfit as it came (plus the accessories). Second was with the the shirt I wore instead of the one it came with cause I didn't like the low cut of the original top. I won sexiest costume at a costume party for this which was unexpected! Third picture was the third wear for work! added black pants to make it more appropriate vs. the fishnet (which was amazing!). Got compliments from everyone everywhere!

You get what you pay for. It's ok for a $40 bagged costume
I wear a 10/12 US standard size. I have measurements of 36DD-34-44 and the XL fits. Not too snug, not too loose.The construction is what you would expect, there are fraying seams but it seems like it will survive a party, if not a slam-pit. The fabric has been accurately compared to graduation gown polyester. The thinnest, cheapest available. It's practically see-thru. I'm going to an all-night, outdoors event and I will be creatively layering for warmth because this is clearly meant for indoors wear.There is a painted skull on the back of the jacket that looks goofy for anything other than Halloween, and also painted design on one sleeve. The hem is all jagged cuts and frayed edges which would bother me if the look wasn't intended to be one of a woman who crawls through Lousiana cemetaries at midnight.The costume was heavily wrinkled in its package and required a thorough steam to remove them. It looks ok without the wrinkles. I wouldn't advise using an iron as it will likely melt the material. (Steamers are like 10 bucks at Walmart anyway). Once steamed, I finger-pressed the collar and lapel into shape and secured it to dry with clothes pins to make it look better. This seems to be working. If it doens't I will iron on a strip of interfacing for strength.The care label says do not wash, do not dry, do not dry clean. So, don't sweat or spill your drink or just expect this to be a disposable costume.The hat is interesting. It's a sturdy, good quality crafting felt but requires velcro assembly which is tricky. Also itneeded to be steamed to get it to roll correctly. But it looks pretty ok. There is a goofy elastic band to make it one-size. I guess you can cut it out if you have a big head, a lot of hair or like me, a party wig.The monkey hand necklace and bone belt are silly looking plastic but satisfactory comparable to the rest of the outfit. If you wanted authentic you wouldn't be buying this anyway.I'm personalizing mine with belts, jewelry and layers of clothing for warmth but that's what I do. Straight out of the bag it's ok. Forty bucks worth of ok... not worth one cent more and probably a good deal less.

Outstanding costume
Bought this costume for my wife and she loved it. It fit just a little snug so recommend getting the next size up. She got great compliments at the Halloween party we attended.
