Little Red Riding Hood Costume Review

I had the opportunity to review a Halloween Costume from WholesaleHalloweenCostumes and my daughter picked Little Red Riding Hood Costume.

I was very surprised to get this in the mail, it came well packed and shipped in a very reasonable time frame.

The costume itself is adorable!! It's a velvet type fabric, very thick and heavy, great for those of you that live in colder climates around Halloween time.

It comes with the dress and cape attached to each other, a fishnet tights and a choker necklace. I got it in size XL(12-14) for my 9 year old daughter and it fits perfectly! She's currently about 95lbs and is in a size 14/XL girls clothing, so this was a great fit for her. I know halloween costumes usually run on the small size and I was worried about this not fitting her, but as you can see from the pictures, I don't have that worry anymore.

upclose - see the choker?

Full View - it has 5 ribbon ties in various places

I had her wear black tights underneath to keep her legs warm. I will get her some black shirt to wear underneath on top as well some black shoes and a basket to wear on Halloween night while she goes trick or treating.

Check out the Little Red Riding Hood article.

Don't forget to go check out the site and see all other various Halloween costumes plus a bunch of new 2012 costumes! I love the IronMan costume which my middle son would love! As well as the Mickey Mouse Costume for my youngest Mickey fanatic.
