Alice Costume (XL)

Received this costume yesterday and I LOVE it! Be careful of the sizing! As is the norm with Halloween costumes, they run VERY small! I wear a size 6-8 jeans and usually a medium in tops and ordered an XL. It fits perfectly. It comes in two parts, the blue satin dress with lace trim, and the apron. The apron is HUGE! I can loop it twice around my waist, BUT it does therefore have the potential to get the perfect fit. I will be pinning the straps. It is a very flat costume, and to get that real "alice look" I ordered a leg avenue knee length petticoat which gave it that gorgeous poof shape. If you do not wear a petticoat, it will sit probably just below your knee (I'm 5"6). The back of the dress ties at the top like a hospital gown, with three velcro fastenings down the back, the skirt section has no openings but to be safe, I will be either adding a zipper, or pinning it shut as it will gap if I do not. Overall its beautiful, comfortable and appropriate, not hoochy at all, which is good, considering I will be wearing this to a party with about 300 kids and senior citizens!
