Can I hire a fancy dress costume on line?
We have a selection of our fancy dress costumes that are available to hire on this website. Our shop stocks over 6500 quality adult and children costumes, so it is impossible to show them all on this site.
We have tried to show a sample of our many themes and sizes. If you can't see what you are looking for or wish to know more about a particular costume (different sizes etc.) contact the shop either on 01245 327156 or by
We can't book hire costumes on line (yet!) We need to double check availability, so contact us and we can discuss your requirements. We cater for all sizes, so do not worry.

I ordered a costume and asked for a next day service, it is now 2 p.m. and it hasn't arrived?
Contact us immediately, we will chase the consignment for you. Do not leave it until after 4 p.m. as it doesn't give us a lot of time to try and find where the item is.
