Costume components do not fit well.
Adjust the waist panel or kilt using internal ties if available. For the top, consider if the included shirt is needed for a better fit or if minor alterations are required.
Headdress does not stay in place.
Use bobby pins or spirit gum (applied to skin and then the headdress) for a more secure fit. Ensure hair is styled in a way that can support the headdress.
Cape detaches easily.
Secure the cape more firmly using safety pins or by sewing additional fasteners to the top and cape for a robust connection.
