Plum Pixie Child Costume Purple B002XKNCK0

Plum Pixie Child Costume Purple Small - 4.1 out of 5 stars from 22 customer reviews


Adorable and fits well
There are four pieces to the costume: dress, wings, magic wand, and headband. As another reviewer stated, the headband is too big -- it's made of a loop of wire that's far too wide and just slips right over my daughter's head -- but the rest of the costume is great. One thing I particularly like about it is that the bodice is made of a stretchy velvety material and fits nicely even on my skinny kid; most other costumes that I have looked at are cut too wide, and have no give to accommodate different-shaped kids. I believe that the stretch of this costume should accommodate regular-sized and chunky kids as well, but I haven't tried it out. The wings are really cool; they're made of a heavy duty wire with a lavender pantyhose-like material stretched over them, and so far they've put up with a decent amount of wear as my daughter wears them around the house, sits down, squashes them, etc. If she's bent them once or twice, they are easy to mold back into shape. The wand is quite...


Great costume!
We got this costume for our daughter when she was 3 years old. We were pleasantly surprised. It is well made. The wings and accessories (wand and headpiece) are fun too. She is now almost 5 years old and still plays with it. The waist streches well, so it fits different sizes. Wings needed new elastics (after a lot of abuse :-), but they are back in circulation. The costume was worth the money.


Good Costume but........
The dress itself was exactly as I had pictured. The color is very vibrant and bold. The flowers that adorn it, on the other hand, look very old and cheap. I wound up removing them and added my own flowers to it. The wand and crown both fell apart as soon as we took them out of the package. I had to redo them both. Overall, after I upgraded the costume it turned out very pretty. I would not tell my friends to purchase this costume unless they were prepared to do some work to it.
