This place is like an aladdin's cave of the ridiculous. My friends were holding a pirate party and I happened to find this place at the last minute. There was a whole aisle just for pirate gear. I was in heaven. The staff were really helpful, I guess it has to be a pretty fun place to work, but even so, they were perfectly willing to indulge any degree of craziness, which was a good job in my case. Even if you don't live in the area, if you have a fancy dress party to attend, it is well worth the trip.

You can hire or buy outfits. So so so much to choose from. Male or female, child or adult, you will…read morefind something. The difficulty is choosing which one! From Betty Boo to pirate wench, you name it, they've got it. They also provide party decorations for the whole shebang, or maybe just a plastic sword and pirate hat, what ever you want. Their window displays give great inspiration as well, the last one I saw was for a beach party so had lots of inflatable plamtrees and grass skirts! At hallowe'en they don't just go for the easy option, last hallowe'en they had a Beetlejuice inspired display. Geniuses. Pop in if not just to kill time before your train. Such a fun shop.

Wouldn't humanity be much more interesting if we dressed up as alter-egos everyday, shielding our true identities from strangers, gallivanting around as heroes or truly heinous villains? I vote for 365 days of Halloween. Anyway, back to the shop. The main floor has an array of really cool randomness. Ashtrays, prints of Marilyn Monroe, games, keychains, tapestries, candles, incense, buttons, mugs; you name it they claim it. When I need to get a gift for someone I come here to buy it. Finding something cool here is guaranteed.

I tried it on and was perfect, they ensure that had everything I need to look the best, a crown, makeup, playing card stockings, heart stickers the works. The costumes are very well price the shop is small and crowded stuff everywhere but the guys and girls that work there are amazing they know where everything is and the have so much passion for making you feel and look the part you want to play at your party..

We are very child friendly, even having a tv area for children to be entertained whilst parents can take the time to happily find and try on their costumes. Added to this we have a huge range of childrens costumes suitable for individual needs or that of schools, having many sets of costumes available. We have everything you can think of - superheros, 60's, movies, etc. We also have lots of couples costumes and family sets. Aside from costumes and accessories we also have a computer area with lots of games available and seasonal gifts. So come and have a browse, we look forward to seeing you here soon.

Then, 2 days later I get an email telling me my package was processed and will ship shortly. So I was misinformed.

Really irritated by the blatantly wrong and misleading information.

I visited Mad World first thing on a Monday morning on the hunt for an astronaut costume. In fact,…read moreI had been on the hunt for the astronaut costume since the Friday before and luckily this was the one shop that had one in stock. Astronauts must be in demand. The staff were extremely helpful on the phone and on walking in, despite my practically jumping on the lady who worked there as soon as she arrived to make sure I got the costume, she wasn't at all irritated and very friendly. I had a mooch around the shop which I have to admit made a light start to a gloomy Monday morning - they have all sorts of fun costumes and accessories including some huge and gorgeous 'Bling Rings for £2 which I actually contemplated buying for real use. The outfit cost £60 hire for the week which is very competitive in comparison to other London fancy dress shops. The costume was a bit more...colourful (lots of sequins on the boots) than probably what Neil Armstrong is used to but it did the job! The place is a little tricky to find and almost like a warehouse when you get inside. Definitely one to try for your next fancy dress (or astronaut) party.

I love this place so much! It has never let me down! Not when I needed a 60's dress, not when I…read moreneeded a SuperMario-Outfit and no other time either! This Store just has everything you could think of in terms of costumes and dressing up. When you come in you find Accessories and all different interesting things, downstairs are the masks, 1st floor male costumes and 2nd floor girls costumes. They don't have changing rooms but it is basically a maze in there and you can hide somewhere behind the boxes to get changed. There is a good price range for the different themes and I am sure everyone can find something suitable in there. The staff is very friendly and helpful! This time I bought some lashes and they gave me some extra glue for free without me asking for it! Very nice gesture! Whenever the next costume party will be, I'll come back here to get ready!

Therr are a full FOUR floors of costumes, props, decorations, masks, wigs, make up, prosthetics, everything and anything you may need for your fancy dress party or cosplay!

Unfortunately, I was completely unsuccessful in stopping the aging process and ended up turning 30…read moreyears old anyway. As there was nothing I could do to prevent it, I decided I could start 30 off with a bang. Through a little fancy dress party. As the theme was Cowboys & Indians (as in bindis and saris, not feathers and tomahawks) I was in desperate need of a Cowboy costume. Not wanting to travel all the way to Camden, I was told about Harlequin's Costume shop on Lee High Road. WOW! While the place isn't big, can easily be passed, it makes up for it inside with wall to wall costumes, accessories and EVERYTHING you could possibly need to a fancy dress do. They also have a large selection of costumes for hire, which is what I eventually went with. The price was quite reasonable and they were very flexible. I reserved my costume, then bought some quality accessories like a Sheriffs badge, Western mustache, belt with guns as well as some decorations for the house. The selection is very impressive, the owners are extremely friendly and helpful (despite one being a City supporter) and the prices were quite reasonable. I will definitely be headed back to Harlequin next time I need any fancy dress options.

Available is a wide range of characters from TV and film such as The Simpsons, Rocky Horror and Flintstones which in many cases include an outfit and a rubber mask to fully immerse yourself into a character. A lot of these costumes will attract serious attention at parties. Accessories such as wigs, make up and other basics are available at the front of the shop too for those who don't wish to get too dressed up or who just want to add a few finishing touches to their costume. The shop is spacious and easy to browse your way through with the stock all displayed clearly with lots of sections to explore. The staff are very helpful and seem to enjoy their work which adds a fun atmosphere to the place. The prices are also reasonable and not out of the price range of most people. If you don't wish to buy then a hire option is available. If you have a party coming up, it is well worth visiting Escapade before you buy a costume to get ideas and inspiration.
