Stopped by here right when they opened and it wasn't busy at all. I was looking for a witchy/ pirate/ renaissance style outfit to wear next weekend at Disneyland. It needed to be light weight and give the appearance of a costume but not over the top or Disney makes you change clothes. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Since it was my first time in they explained the process to rent or buy. I was able to try things on and was given recommendations on different witch hats. The selection was insane! Lots of really amazing and beautiful costumes. Plus lots of size varieties it seems. We had to leave to meet friends for lunch but put a costume on hold. Went back a few hours later, the place was a lot busier. Again the staff was so friendly and helpful despite being busy. I rented for now but there's a good chance I'm going to buy the costume cause I love it so much. This costume shop is a gem in Redmond! read more

The two ladies working were so super helpful. This is a place where you can buy or rent. Renting is more economical but you can do both options. So many options and so legit. read more

Long story short, a custom cosplay piece I ordered never arrived, so I texted this store last night and asked if they had anything similar. The person who responded was so helpful, even took pictures of several options, and when I drove down today, they were SO AMAZING helping me find alternatives to pivot my cosplay. Lots of great recommendations for cosplaying, too! read more

Excellent costume inventory for purchase or rent. You can shop online and pick up in the store, but you'll likely continue perusing in the store. Helpful service. Convenient location in Redmond if you live east of Lake Washington. read more

My outfit was perfect. This place has everything!!!! 25 year anniversary right now! Same owner!!!! Thank you AMC! Omg I want to dress up again soon. read more

A Masquerade Costume - Rental hat, shirt, vest, belt for $35. Bargain!! - Costumes Near Me - Redmond, Washington

Store has a lot , I mean A LOT of costumes, accessories and everything little thing you will need for a costume! It's very overfilled and needs a larger space or less inventory to really be more enjoyable shopping experience. THE OWNER IS FRIGHTENING. I was a little scared of her. Raising her voice and yelling at customers. A phone conversation of someone innocently calling to see if they were open almost had her come unglued. Not enough people working today , very unorganized , she was a bit unhinged and I was absolutely shocked at her behavior. She needs to take a step back and should not be customer facing with that attitude. The shop could really be a money maker without her running it. read more

Highly recommended. Has lots of good looking stuff. I was there for a masquarade mask and there were so many to chose from, all of which looked higher quality that the many others I have seen at other stores. read more

Halloween is my FAVORITE holiday because the grown ups can even dress up! So when I was invited to my first Masquerade-themed wedding party (in May of 2021), I was going to go all in! Halloween shopping in May! A dream come true! It was my first time at A Masquerade Costume, and I was very pleased with the mask selection. I searched until I found just the right one... and then I also found a feathered head piece to wear as well! The staff was friendly and patient. They have tons of costumes to purchase and rent. Thank you! I will be back! read more

I found EXACTLY what I was looking for. I needed a traditional Venetian costume for a "masquerade ball." It was for an art auction, so I wanted to go the extra mile and look as authentic as possible. When I called Masquerade, I happened to speak with the owner who had this specific dress in mind. It fit like a glove. This piece felt like a work of art and was structurally authentic. When I went in to try it on, I had my 19 month old son with me and the staff was extremely helpful. He was essentially running through the store like it was his personal playground and they were so sweet. I was happy to choose this store and support local businesses because stores like this are few and far between. They are so special. They let me rent it for a couple weeks through Halloween, which makes it so much easier as a mom who can't easily get out to Redmond. Ultimately the dress was rad and I felt like I had traveled back in time and received comments all night long. I ended up making the mask to match and I was so thrilled with the result. Thanks for the help guys! read more

Absolutely perfect, came in looking for a Kylo Ren costume to go with my Neopixel lightsaber for Halloween and couldn't find one, fortunately was able to piece together a costume that highly resembled a Sith Lord, only for 80 bones ($), lucky lucky. Employees were the nicest people on the planet and my costume came out amazing. Would give more than five stars if possible. read more

A Masquerade Costume - Little photo shoot , hard to see the pieces really but trust me, it turned out amazing! - Costumes Near Me - Redmond, Washington

They have hundreds and hundreds of costumes at fair rental or to buy prices. Had what I needed and in my size.

My boyfriend and I rented costumes for a Viking themed wedding from here and had an amazing experience! Immediately when we walked in we were greeted and helped out, and found exactly what we needed. Would definitely recommend for all your costume needs! read more

This is one of the few places left in this area to get special FX makeup supplies! Most of the time, I'm forced to order things online and wait for them to ship. But knowing that this place exists is super handy because then I don't need to wait if I'm running low on liquid latex or bald caps. Their focus is on costuming, but I really appreciate that they offer extras like these to really complete a look. Prices are good too, really fair for what you're getting! read more

Went here to rent a costume for a masquerade ball and the owner was so helpful and nice. She helped me with picking and putting together the best costume! She had so many different options and really spent the time dressing, designing, and talking me through options. So sweet and such a cute store! Highly recommend! read more

This store is so cute. The employees are so helpful, so sweet, and genuine. I needed to grab something and always saw this store but had never gone in. So glad i did, will definitely be coming back. read more

I've been a fan and customer for the past decade. They have incredible costumes and they collect lots of unique one-off objects that might be hand made or custom made. It's more than just a costume shop, and to confuse it with some party chain stuff would be a big underestimation. read more

Yowza! These folks have EVERYTHING!! I needed costuming for my first-ever attendance at Mardi Gras in New Orleans and A Masquerade Costume hooked me up! Their selection is mind-blowing (I was even able to find Mardi Gras masks!) and they have every accessory imaginable...even shoes and high quality makeup. I got very personalized attention where I could just stay in the dressing room and have suggested items brought to me. I spent a ton - but NOBODY else in the French Quarter looked like me! read more

This store is amazing! So much to see ! And the staff is terrific. Very knowledgeable about their stock and how to log together fantastic, personalized costumes read more

Well, Halloween is long past but this place is a secret find and you could probably find some great accessories for Holiday and New Year's Eve Parties! I had no idea this place existed and I've been driving by it for years..... The staff was so helpful and they have such fun,cute costumes and accessories. Ended up getting a feather boa, little black top hat (so cute!), sating gloves and a fedora (for the other half). All together it was $53. If I ever need a cute costume or fun accessories for a party, this is the place! read more

Pricy, but probably worth it considering they have some AWESOME stock. ALSO you can both rent AND buy, and if you choose the former, the cost can be applied to the latter if you decide you want to keep it. :-D read more

Staff was very helpful in finding what I was looking for as their store is large and has a LOT in it. They are open year round, but I will definitely be coming back here for Halloween next year. It's cool that they allow you to rent pieces to make it more affordable and prevent throwing material out! read more

There are not enough superlatives to describe my experience at A Masquerade Costume. While the enormous selection and quality pieces stand high above the many shops I've visited, it was owner Kyra's patience, knowledge, keen eye (and infectious spirit) that made shopping for my Venice Is Sinking: A Venetian Masked Carnival Ball costume a positive blast. The fact that she offered me a piece from her *own* closet, as well as kept the shop open well past an hour beyond closing to help me curate my costume is a testament to her unbounded generosity and graciousness. She is a delight in every way and I can't recommend her expertise - or her shop - highly enough. Thank you so much Tracy Klinkroth for the recommendation. I am truly grateful. read more

A Masquerade Costume - Grateful to Kyra and the visionary Masquerade Costume staff for helping me pull together my amazing Venice is Sinking outfit. - Costumes Near Me - Redmond, Washington

This is the best place to find original and authentic costumes in the Seattle area. A great mix of vintage and new. You can buy outright or rent for a very generous amount of time. Kyra and her staff are all well versed in what is available and they are fun and creative to work with. Plenty of costumes to choose from along with a tremendous variety of accessories. read more

Excellent selection. Great staff. I took my 85 year old aunt and she was so happy with her custome. Very patient team.

After the conversation I had with the OWNER over the phone today I was compelled to write a review on here for all to know about. I rented a costume for a friend's 20s party in September and returned it with no problems. However, I had to rent my Halloween costume at the same time, with a fee for taking it early. Otherwise they couldn't guarantee that it would be there closer to the holiday. My first sign of doubt - they don't hold costumes for pick up later. I was fine with it because it allowed me to not have to drive to Bellevue from Renton yet another time, saving me gas, but I kept the costume in my house where the cats could get at it and things could happen to it for over a month. Fast Forward to my phone conversation today. I called to see how late they would be open as I need to turn in my costume by today. I was told 6:30pm and I then asked what would happen if I turned in my costume late. The person on the phone handed me off to someone else and she explained that the fee would be half of the price of rental for each day it is late. I then explained that I work until 5pm and was not sure if I could make the 6:30pm deadline for today. The woman on the phone then said something about having the costume for a week in order to get it in before the due date. I said that I rented the costume for Halloween and was told I could bring it back the next Friday. She then asked me if I needed it on Sunday and I asked if she meant last Sunday. She said yes and I told her I did not. Then she proceded to chide me and told me that I had time to turn it in then and that I should have done it. She then told me that I would know better for next time. At this point I was upset with how she was treating me and told her that there would be no next time, thanked her and hung up. It infuriated me that this person would assume I was trying to get something over on her and felt the need to scold me like a child. I never said I wasn't going to pay the fee if I brought it in the next day - she never gave me a chance to say either way. I ended up calling back to complain about the phone conversation and was told that I was speaking to the OWNER during my last phone call. She really will not gain any customers by talking to them in that manner. I understand that she has a business to run, but chiding people and scolding them for asking questions is not the way to gain customers. That's not to say that I don't understand what she was saying to me, but she could have told me in a much better way than making me feel like I was trying to get something over on her. The owner of this company just lost some pretty good business. I enjoyed the store a lot and could see myself renting costumes from them - until that phone conversation. I can find a costume shop that I will be willing to spend a little more money on that is more convenient to get to and more inviting to their customers. Some minor details that lead to this disconnection to the business: 1. Already stated, no holding of costumes, even if the event is over a month away. 2. Not being clear on what can be rented and what is for sale only. I tried on a skirt and was ready to rent it when they had to change it at the last minute because it was an only for sale item. 3. The store is very crowded with costumes and doesn't have much room for walking around and looking at possible costumes. I basically came in and someone had to help me find things because there was no way I could have easily found the parts for the costume I was looking for on my own. 4. The end price is subject to the person who rings you up. While there is a price guide, it hardly is clear to the customer and can be changed at a whim depending on who rings you up. The owner may not be aware of this, but I don't blame the employees for trying to keep the customers happy when they have an owner like that. I could probably come up with more, but I need to run and try to get my costume in before they close today. If I wasn't so stretched for cash right now I would not worry about it and take it in tomorrow, but the economy has hit me hard and I need to end this transaction and business connection as fast as possible. Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope it was helpful. Feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns. UPDATE: I got to the store and went to return my costume. Turns out they had no record of me renting it HA!! I got there with an hour to spare, so there was no problem turning it in on time, except that they had no record of me renting it lol. I could have kept the costume for a long time and they would have had no idea. Go figure. The salesperson said that they would eventiually find what happened to the sale, but she would put a note on the costume to note something. I told her I wouldn't be returning because of the owner and she said alright, and I left. read more

Look no further - this is the greatest costume shop in the Seattle area. I go to a lot of costume parties, and I also throw a lot of my own. Kyra and her staff has never failed to meet my needs. I've shopped here... 30 times? I've lost count of the number of times I've walked in with no idea what to wear and I just tell them the theme, and the staff either (a) digs up the perfect costume for me, or (b) get my creative juices flowing with their ideas so I can piece together my own outfit. You can rent stuff or buy it. I've rented costumes worth $500+ for only about $60 which got compliments all night. If you want to be the guy or girl that people are grabbing at the party to take pictures with you, shop here!! Are there problems with the place? Well, there's an overwhelming supply which might make you dizzy, but that's what the staff is there for. And because of how much stuff they have, I wish the store was larger and less cramped but that's only a problem if you're shopping last minute for big events like Halloween. (There used to be a Georgetown store too, but now everything is in Bellevue.) The only other problem is I wish I had more money to spend here! read more

For my specific needs (i.e. buying a masquerade mask), I would rate this store a 4. Our company had a masquerade ball, and we needed some masks. We stopped by the party stores, but the masks that they had were pretty cheaply made and flimsy, if you could even find a store that had them available. After researching online for stores that had them, I found A Masquerade Costume. They offer a huge selection of masks online, and their store has two walls full of masks: everything from paper mache to leather ones. We were able to find two masks in the 20-30 dollar range and had a good time at the party. One thing to note: there are no returns on the masks once you buy them. This store has a lot of costumes to buy and rent as well. I will have to stop by next time for Halloween. read more

The store front is unassuming, but step inside and enter a land of costumes like you've never seen. The have professionally made items, hand-made fashion, custom leatherwork, and it's all organized by theme. Buy it or rent it. This place is as magical as it is astonishing. I walked around for a full half hour just gawking at their stuff. Nearly forgot why I was there. They must truly love what they do. Incredible. read more

Wonderful selection of costumes and props! This establishment is perfect if your interested in renting a costume for theater, special occasion, or a photoshoot! A lot of the clothes are vintage and some are from the 1800's. Beautiful attention to detail, prompt service and a friendly staff. The only reason why I give this place 3 stars, because they made a mistake with the paperwork and said I didn't return an item to the store, when I actually did, and they were going to charge my credit card for 500 dollars! Luckily we were able to find the item. read more

I was attending the MadMonster show in Bellevue this weekend. At the last minute I called to see if I could get a costume. I was looking for a Columbia from Rocky Horror. I was told they did have one and to come on in. I dropped by an hour later and walked out with a fantastic costume. When I attended my event I was lucky enough to meet Lil Nell. She complimented me on how amazing I looked and several attendees said I was the best dressed they had seen all weekend. The staff was friendly and helpful. The selection of costuming is extensive and of a good quality. I highly recommend this shop. read more

A Masquerade Costume - Columbia Costume from A Masquerade in Bellevue, WA - Costumes Near Me - Redmond, Washington

I love A Masquerade's selection of one-of-a-kind costume pieces. I've traded in lots of gently used costume parts from my personal collection for store credit that I've used to rent their high-end garb. Aquaman in a tuxedo? Check! Peacock for the solstice parade? They made it happen! Game of Thrones viewing party? The photographer cherry-picked us for a private photo shoot at Thorne Castle! Jack Skellington? The full deal, including the super-skinny suit, custom-sewn neck tie, and make-up assistance! The staff is passionate about dressing people up. Give them a goal and a budget and you'll be in good hands. read more

I visited their new-ish store in Georgetown. I just happened to drive past a few hours before I was going to the EMP Undead Prom party and popped in as I didn't have a costume. The staff is so helpful and the costumes are way better than what I have seen at other stores in Seattle. I'll definitely go back there next time I'm buying/renting a costume. The costume they helped me put together was so great that I was crowned Queen of the Undead prom that night :) And the masks are gorgeous! read more

Great store with an amazing selection of costumes and all the extra stuff to go along with them. The thing that makes this place special is the staff: they can help you take your costume from good to great. Everyone there is helpful, friendly and creative and can find the special items in the store that will make you look great. read more

High quality costumes. Good price. Gracious proprietor. Will definitely rent from here again.

A Masquerade Costume is the perfect store for a costume or an extra fancy outfit. I had an upcoming banquet where I wanted to go "all out" and A Masquerade Costume had the perfect outfit. I was able to find a sparkle bow-tie, fancy top hat, and extra fancy silver and black tailcoat. Kyra was incredibly helpful and provided options galore. She cares deeply about each person that walked through the door. I cannot recommend this place enough! What I learned is I need to attend more fancy parties just so I can have more excuses to rent from A Masquerade Costume. read more

Amazing selection of costumes and accessories as well as very helpful staff!

I love this place!! I had a work event were everyone needed to dress up as a movie character and didn't know what I was going to do. I stopped in this last Friday and was greeted with a store packed with costumes and a staff full of ideas. They were extremely helpful and gave me several ideas. The store is a bit cramped but that's because they have so much to choose from. Themes include Victorian, Barbarian, Steam Punk, Harry Potter, Horror, Masquerade, South Pacific, Disco, Christmas, Rocky Horror and many others. They also have a wide selection of makeup supplies. I would highly recommend this store to anyone for year-round costume needs. read more

The staff here are super friendly and helpful. The shop itself is a little small but they still have a nice selection of various costumes and accessories. If you're going for decorations I might go elsewhere but this place is great for costumes, accessories, and even has an okay selection of makeup. read more

Came here for some Burlesque gear and got the best service ever ! TONS of cute corsets and accessories for me and they have any outfit for any theme you can think of! You can buy or rent which is also helpful if you need it just once but I need my things for a bachelorette party and didn't want to risk it so I bought. I will definitely be back for Halloween and all my themed parties! read more
