Great Lara Croft Fancy Dress

After searching a million websites for a Lara Croft outfit for my sister-in-law to be, Allfancy dress were the cheapest. They also stocked the size I needed whilst most other websites were out of stock. The website is very clear and easy to use and the postage was reasonable. I received the outfit 2 days after ordering it and it was packaged well. The outfit is of the quality I would expect for mass produced costumes so probably ok for a couple of wears but no more. I would say that its a little disappointing that guns don't come with it as the outfit comes with the holsters and in order to get the proper guns you have to buy the holster again. Overall a good shopping experience.

Shockingly poor designs

Ordered an outfit for my teenage daughter for a party and within 2 minutes starting fraying and ripping. Thankfully this happened at home at not at the party. Sent it back for them to claim we had done the damage ourselves, especially as my daughter hadn't kept the packaging. This obviously wasn't the case and refused a refund even though I told them there were several witnesses which of course they told me I'd made up. Would never use this company again. Delivery charges are higher than other company's and there quality is shockingly awful. Should of read reviews before using this website.

Super friendly service and excellent goods

I found out we had to wear fancy dress to work the next day...and had nothing to hand and didn't even know this shop was local. I googled fancy dress and found them so phoned to ask if they sold direct and if I could collect. a costume that afternoon. I was given clear directions on how to find them and once there they couldn't do more to help ensure I had the right costume and the right size. The costume was a perfect fit, comfortable and very well made. This is one fancy dress retailer I would highly recommend to everyone for excellent goods and a super friendly service from people who know their stock.

Outstanding

I ordered my son the Victorian poor boy costume for world book day.! It was dispatched the same day, and it only took 1 day for me to receive it.! Turns out I ordered the wrong size, I arranged a return online which was quick & simple. Within 2 days I had an email to say my replacement in larger size has been shipped.! Great company highly recommended..

Excellent website

I live in Ireland and needed a housekeeper/maid costume for my daughter for her school play. I googled this type of costume and immediately 'allfancydress' website came up. It has a great selection of costumes and it had the one my daughter needed for her school play. I selected a 3 day delivery and we were not kept waiting! I would recommend this web site to everyone both in England and overseas.

Excellent Customer Service and Value, Highly Recommended!!!!

I have placed two separate orders, the first for my daughters Tudor Day which arrived promptly and I was really pleased with the product and value for money (my daughter can't wait to wear it)

Secondly I ordered an outfit for my son for me to collect from the Colchester depot the next day. Due to unforseen circumstances the outfit was not able to be collected that day, HOWEVER, I received a call from the company to say that they would be able to deliver the item the next day to me by 1pm at no extra charge to me. The item was delivered at 9:30am that day and my son was able to take his costume to rehearsals. I was really please with the customer service and that Mark at All Fancy Dress did everything he could to get the outfit to me on time. Thank you so much and I will definately will be using the website again for all our fancy dress needs!!!!!!!

Fast Dispatch, Exactly as descibed and pictured, very impressed!!!

I had less than a weeks notice from my son's school, that his class were to wear Victorian Dress, on a school visit to a Steam Museum. After a quick look online, I found an outfit for a "Victorian Poor Boy" from Allfancydress. It arrived very quickly and my son and I were delighted with it. It was perfect and his teacher told him that he had the best outfit!!! :) We added a bit of black face paint to make him look like he had been up a chimney or was just a bit dirty.....job done!!! Very impressed and will definitly use the company again! Would highly recommend- 5 STAR!

Good Selection of outfits/costumes, Easy website and reliable service.

I have used All Fancy Dress on several occasions now and can honestly say that the experiences have been hassle free. Being this is a local business i have taken advantage of collecting my orders, on each occassion i have not experienced any problems and would recommend this business to friends and family, the costumes are very reasonably priced and of good quality... I look forward to dealing with them again soon!!

Recommended - fast and easy service

Very impressed. Easy site to navigate. Good price for the smurfette costume which arrived very promptly. Was the wrong size so returned to get the next size up which was simple to do. Only downside was having to pay a second delivery charge. Will believe the reviews next time that said the sizes were small!

Great Service and Fast Delivery

Purchased a Girls Pretty Witch Costume in a size medium (5-7 age) for my 5 year old daughter. The dress has plenty of room for her to grow in. It was nicely packaged and super fast delivery. My daughter loves the dress even though its slightly on the bigger side but she will have plenty of wears out of it. Would definitely recommend company to others and will use it again often.

I'll buy from them again.
Good website, with sufficient pictures of the costume to view.
Packaged well and delivered on time.
They also have an after sale service.
Ticked all the boxes for me.

Good customer service, delivery and quality of product.

I live in Portugal and am organising carnaval outfits for my daughter's school. I looked at the website, and the prices were the best I had found so I wanted to one of each size, so the parents can order correct sizes for their kids. After a hickup with my internet connection I rang customer services in UK and Stacey was really helpful, took my order and paid for it, let me know when one item which was not in stock would be available and by the time I came off the phone the order confirmation was showing in my Emails. I had the delivery collected by courier the next morning and received my order intact here in Portugal today. The quality of the outfits are good for the prices especially as we are all strapped for cash in the current climate. My only minus point is that they come out on the small side, but this is not the fault of Allfancydress, its the manufacturers. I will be placing another order with them at the end next week for the bulk of the schools requirements.

Poor product, slow delivery and poor customer service .. AVOID !!

Orderd 2 outfits they took ! 11 days to arrive to late for the plays i rang 3 times and got 1 helpful, 1 ok and a man who was argumentative and rude the third time .. i was told to refuse the parcel at the door and it would be returned but seen as it was left with a neighbour i now have to pay for the return.
I asked for a full refund which they will give me but no pp refund !
Friends from school also bought costumes from this company and all 3 outfits frayed and came apart after the first performace one had to be completly replaced as was beyond repair for the the next perfomance !!! she was not offerd a refund when she complained as it had been word ..
VERY SHODY OUTFIS, DELIVERY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE !!!!!
