Scooby-Doo Daphne Child's Costume, Medium B000P5BBGM

Scooby-Doo Daphne Child's Costume, Medium - 2.6 out of 5 stars from 31 customer reviews


A too-small wig ruins this costume; runs small
I bought this Halloween costume for my daughter in the child's medium size, the largest children's size available. The medium is supposed to be a size 8-10. My daughter is 6 and normally wears a size 7 or 8, so I thought this costume might be slightly big on her. Wrong. The medium is really more like a 7 than an 8-10. Far worse, however, is the tiny wig that comes with the costume. My little girl burst into tears when the wig did not fit her head. Mind you, she has a normal sized head for someone her age; the wig is even too small on my 1-year old son! I compared the wig to the little knit cap that my son got in the hospital when he was born, and they are about the same size. (Did these manufacturers do any research at all before they sized this thing???) Now I am faced with the additional challenge of trying to find another orange wig with bangs in time for Halloween, or pray that stretching the wig over a bowling ball for a month makes it big enough to fit a head that is...


Bad sizing chart
My daughter was so excited for this costume. It came just in time for her school party. However the boot covers and the wig were way to small. (I think the wig would fit an infant-maybe!!) My daughter is a small 9 year old(wears size 7 in jeans) So I thought 8-10 size would fit. It left her in tears!


Misrepresented
Unfortunately, this costume looks like a lot more than you acutally receive. Definitely order at least one size up from normal. The pic is adorable and the wig looks so big and puffy. It is not. It is tiny-and good luck finding another bright orange wig. My little girl loves the costume idea but we'll be searching. If you buy this-you'll be out looking for more.
