…but they were slight (though designed to be as helpful as possible). We’re still adding more stock to the site–if you look to the left, you’ll see a “Sale Costumes” category and a “Rental Costumes” category. We’re trying to make it easier to browse our stock, though you’ll find that our rental costumes are not available (for purchase) on the site, since they’re rentals. What we have posted, however, is a set of thumbnails that serve as a quick summary of some of our period clothing. We’ve many times this amount in stock–but we can’t possibly put the thousands of custom-built, hand-made, and completely unique and one-of-a-kind costumes onto the site (well, not yet). It’s simply too many items to take photos of all of them. But this is meant to give you an idea of what we actually carry, and what we can make.

Speaking of, our parade and mascot costumes are starting to appear on the site as well! We’re adding them one at a time–each of these is unique, and comes with an appropriate fur suit, gloves, and shoe covers. If you’d like to rent one of these, they are reserved by placing a cash deposit (during October) equal to the rental amount. We take check deposits, but only if it’s not October. During October, the rental period for parade and mascot costumes is one day–the rest of the year, they rent by three days.

If you’ve any questions at all concerning any aspect of our sale or rental costumes, or even questions or comments about this site, don’t hesitate to call us at 864-271-4260 or email us. You can also subscribe here to receive automatically receive updates of our site and stock.

…and there are just so many in our store! You may have noticed the links on the left side of this page–yes, they are shortcuts to our men’s, women’s, and children’s costumes. Don’t be disheartened by our small online selection of kid’s costumes; we’re adding them into our database now. Soon there will be many more–the same goes for accessories, as well as wigs. Please bear with us while we’re adding stock (we’ve got thousands of items). We’re currently getting in several things–like Michael Jackson costumes, several different wigs, and more costume shoes (including go-go and lace-up boots, among other things).

If you don’t see what you’re looking for, just call us at 864-271-4260 and ask! We most likely have what you need, and if we don’t, we’ll do our best to direct you to where you can find it.

We’re going to be closed this weekend, from Saturday, September 5th through Monday, September 7th, in observance of Labor Day–we apologize in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. Our regular hours will resume on Tuesday, September 8th.

But, in more exciting news, we’re still adding more items to the site. So far, we’ve got about 400 more costumes and accessories that are only in need of pictures–as soon as we’ve got those uploaded, we’ll add a feature where you can navigate by adult (men’s or women’s costumes) and child (boys’ or girls’ costumes).

We’d also like to thank our readers for the over-6000 views this past month! Remember to check back for new information–or to make it even easier, just click here to subscribe to our site for on-demand updates and new information.
