FAQs

Is this costume flame retardant?

The costume conforms to EN71 safety standards, but like most costume fabrics, it should be kept away from naked flames and high-heat sources.

Does it include a staff?

No, this set includes the robe and headpiece only.

Can I machine wash this?

It is recommended to hand wash only to protect the fabric weave and structure.

Is the fabric itchy?

The fabric is chosen for its lightweight properties, but we recommend wearing a comfortable cotton shirt or layer underneath if the child has sensitive skin.

What size should I choose?

This specific variant is sized for 9-10 years. For other sizes, please check the available sibling products.

Troubleshooting

Headpiece keeps slipping off

Use a small amount of double-sided fabric tape or a bobby pin to secure the headpiece to the child's hair or existing hat.

Wrinkles in the robe

Use a steamer on a low setting from a distance or hang in the bathroom while taking a hot shower to let the steam release creases.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the garment, follow these guidelines:

  1. Storage: Hang the robe on a child-sized hanger to prevent wrinkles between uses.
  2. Cleaning: Gently hand wash in cold water using mild detergent; do not use heavy agitation or a machine dryer as the fabric is lightweight and prone to damage.
  3. Compatibility: This costume fits most children aged 9-10. It is designed to be worn over existing light clothing, such as a t-shirt and leggings or trousers, for maximum comfort.
  4. Safety: Always supervise children while wearing the costume to ensure the headpiece is secured correctly and does not interfere with their vision or movement.
