Little Adventures Costumes          Dress-up vs Costume Quality

Little Adventures Deluxe & Traditional Costumes

The difference between our traditional children's costumes and deluxe costumes is the quality of the fabric and the detail in the trims.  For example, the traditional Belle costume is made mostly of China Silk which is a form of polyester.  It has a few rose details and while it's a lovely and comfortable dress, it's not in the same category as the deluxe dress which is a lush dress with smaller more delicate rosebuds and much more velvet than China Silk.  The details on the Deluxe dresses are finer and fuller with many more layers of materials.  They are just as comfortable and are just as rugged as the traditional version.

 

The Snow White dresses are by far the most stunning in person.  Both the traditional and deluxe, but the deluxe has the addition of the flowers all over the bodice.  The vibrant colors of the dress is just amazing.  Add the sequin cape with is both beautiful and such an inexpensive piece, and this costume is simply one of the best quality costumes to be found.  The matching headband is also cute but a simple red ribbon can also be added.

 

Little Adventures costumes truly are as comfortable as the manufacturer claims.  All the seams are rolled and sewn flat. Something not found on Halloween costumes.  These are meant to be played in and enjoyed.  Washed and worn; over and over.

 

Dress-up VS. Costume Quality

A dress-up is more durable, generally washable, and made to withstand constant play.  Costume-quality refers to those that are for special occasions because they require hand washing, dry cleaning, or other special care.
