Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your costume, iron the jacket and trousers on a low setting before wearing to remove any shipping creases. Ensure the mock shirt is properly tucked and secured under the jacket for a crisp, layered appearance. Regarding compatibility, this set pairs well with standard 80s-style boots or character shoes. For care, always check the garment label; generally, these costumes should be spot cleaned with a damp cloth to preserve the fabric quality. Avoid machine washing to prevent the embellishments or structure of the jacket from degrading. Hang the set in a cool, dry place after use to ensure it remains ready for your next event.
