We genuinely love costumes, and we know the right details can make all the difference. Our experienced team combines friendly, personal service with practical costume knowledge to help you find the right look for your event, theme and budget.

July 11, 2026Excellent Service! I had an awesome experience from start to finish. I placed my order online and was so impressed when it arrived the very next day. It made the whole experience feel easy and seamless. The website was incredibly easy to use, with a great range of options to choose from, and the team was so friendly and helpful every step of the way. Thank you so much for such amazing service!

Very well organised, with an easy-to-find location and efficient service. I shared a costume idea with them, and they took the time to research it before providing accessories to match. Thank you for your excellent service!

Was after a last minute costume for Saturday night. I was disorganized and made an online purchase at 5:28am. The store doesn't open until 9am and the website says click and collect orders ready within 1 hour, so I was expecting my order to be ready by 10am. At 8:46am, I got a sms saying my order is ready to be picked up. These guys are supper efficient. Had my order ready before they opened.

November 2, 2025Awesome customer service. Our book week costume never turned up (different company) and Creative costumes came to the rescue. They even rang and left a message for me to assure me it had been posted and it arrived within 2 days. Thank you so much and we will now be sourcing all our costume needs from Creative Costumes
