I needed to rent an outfit for a '70s themed party. I was a bit overwhelmed by the amount of stuff they have available, but they helped me put something together quickly. I got the shirt, pants, shoes, necklace, glasses and wig for $75, which was a great value. I received many compliments on my outfit at the party. read more

So wow. This place has been there for 50 years. Tons of choice. All kinds of sizes. From big guys to tiny. And everything in between. There are all kinds of hidden things spectacular gems and more hiding in this shop. Be careful to not miss the entrance. The lot is tiny and the traffic can only go one direction. Be patient. It's worth it. It's absolutely not close to my home but it was worth the drive. We are prepping to do a Great Gatsby Event at a Michelin Star Hotel with the Luxury Company MontBlanc. It's got lots of selections to choose from for EVERYTHING you could imagine. The value is great. If I had any idea what to do - I'd be a lot better prepared. FYI. - they do take a credit card but I'd encourage you to use cash instead. The prices are great and the value is the best of any other shop. You can however spend hundreds more if you want. But not me. Their prices are great. read more

Absolute hidden gem, I'm so impressed! Donna and Dave were amazing at helping us find all the perfect elements for our Ren Faire costumes, and were so much fun to talk to as we explored! New favorite costume shop for sure! read more

10/10!!! This place has been in business for decades and now I know why. I have rented two times from here and each piece I have rented has exceeded my expectations. This dress was stunning! I felt like a pretty flapper. The team at gasoline helped me find this head piece to match. This place does an excellent job at taking care of its products for each gust to use. What a great way to be sustainable and fashionable! I will only come here to rent my outfits. It's 10/10 excellent service and products! read more

Gasoline Alley - Beauty and the beast costume - Costumes Near Me - Orange, California

Gasoline alley has been around for ages; and if you're in the need for something costume or vintage - this is the spot. They have an impressive collection jammed into a very small space. Prices are typically slightly higher than market value, but they have such great selection and I always find exactly what I'm looking for; I've bought so many things over the years and used to come in with my dad before he passed because he was good friends with the owners son. (I forget his name but he used to work at Johnny Rebs too) This year I came in looking for a suede vest for a Halloween costume. I first asked the lady at the counter- she said I don't have that, clearly flustered because it was busy after more prodding she showed me the section of leather and suede vests and told me to look around, since they were shoved in a tiny corner on the floor I pulled out the stack (6-7 vests) and was looking through them, when the owners son came rushing over making a snide comment about why I was pulling them all out. He asked me what I was looking for I explained and told him the character he cut me off saying "I know the character" he told me to pick one to try on and "get out of the aisle" because he was "trying to keep it clear". Luckily there was a perfect one in the pile and we bought it; $70 for a vest is STEEP. Idk what the attitude problem is - but y'all need to sort it out, I get that it's busy and a stressful time of year, but it leaves a bad taste in my mouth to spend $70 and get treated like a nuisance for spending money with you. Maybe next time I'll shop somewhere else. What should be a 4 star review is a 2 because you treat customers like a burden. Selection: 5/5 Price: 3/5 Location: 3/5 Service: 1/5 read more

This IS the spot for your costume needs! They don't disappoint! Donna was great and very helpful..we will definitely be back when another fun themed event comes up. (Even if it's last minute but don't do that to yourself lol..) read more

I rented my Halloween costumes from there over the weekend! We loved our outfits ( mariachi and salsa dancer) i loved how they had a lot to pick from ! They have everything from outfits to shoes! Very nice workers! All of them helped us out ! Only thing that bothered me is that it was so small in there i wish the store was bigger because they have so many costumes that you can't see everything it's all crammed in there... but i will highly recommend going there ! You wont be disappointed on the quality of the costumes ! The price was a little pricey but we'll worth it read more

Doesn't matter what we are looking for they always seem to have it at Gasoline Alley. We have probably rented costumes covering 4 decades and we always were the best dressed.

When my last minute Christmas snowflake costume order doesn't arrive on time for the party...Gasoline Alley comes to the rescue! A last minute invite, I only had less then 48 hours to find a costume to rock. I placed an order through Amazon.com only to be notified a few hours before the party there was an error in shipment and my costume would be delayed 24 hours. Lo and behold the Yelp Gods directed me to this family owned costume shop in the city of Orange. Located in the same plaza as the Post Office and DK Donuts is Gasoline Alley. Parking can be difficult, but parking can also be found in the back. When I walked inside the store, it was as if the gates of costume Heaven opened it's doors for me with the light shining on my head. Costumes of every sort and for every occassion. - Disney - Animals - 70's, 80's, 90's - Cartoon Characters - Classic movies - Christmas - Mascots Wigs, hats, glasses, accessories, shoes, purses and plenty more! I love the option to buy or rent. The cost to buy the Mrs. Clause costume was $65 so instead I choose to rent for $30.00 which included a pair of white go go boots, because you can't have Mrs. Clause without her go go boots. The owner of Gasoline Alley was phenomenal in helping me out. She had a really great personality and it was obvious how much passion she had for her business, which is also ran by her three sons. I would highly recommend this place to everyone for all their costume needs! I will definitely be coming back here. read more

A hidden gem of a costume shop. Stacked with any costume you could think of. Very helpful staff. Overall great experience

Great service and outrageously large collection of costumes to select from. All sizes - all styles. Easy to become overwhelmed by all the options but the staff made it a blast to build my final outfit. This was a recommendation to me from a friend and I've passed the information along to others many times over. read more

They have EVERYTHING you would want for your costume. Clothing, Hats, Jewelry, Glasses, Boas, Stockings, EVERYTHING. I love this store. We have several occasions a year that require costumes. They will either rent a costume or sell it to you depending. There is so much to choose from and they have fitting rooms as well. This is always our first choice when we are going shopping for costumes. This year we rented Red Riding Hood and the Wolf for a baby shower costume party. We were Elvis and Go-Go Girl for a 50th Birthday Party. We did the Roaring 20s complete with a Sequine Flapper dress, men's Fedora Hat, Vest, Pocket watch, and Bow tie. Lots of good stuff! read more

Came in the day before a party and was looking for 70s outfits for both me and my boyfriend. We came in not expecting to leave the same day with outfits for our party, but we did! This place has soooooo much awesome stuff!! Clothes for almost every party theme you could think of!!! The lady (I assume she's the owner) helped my boyfriend and I choose outfits. She was awesome and was super helpful! She basically put together our entire outfits. You can rent most garnets and it's not super pricey which was awesome. we rented 2 full outfits for 100 bucks. Definitely coming back when needed. Come here!! read more

Gasoline Alley - 80's - Costumes Near Me - Orange, California

Awesome place to get costumes for a party whether you are looking to buy or rent. It is a little shop in a corner of strip mall who the owner who has been doing this for decades. The service is friendly and there is plenty of stuff to choose from. Be aware it is not your typical costume shop which it does sell costume but there is real clothes to fit most theme parties. Had to go all out on a 70s party. Young lady there helped me picked out the perfect outfit and shoes. Wish I could have bought the stuff as the clothes I rented could be worn every day. My outfit could only be rented. Maybe the 70s style will be back. LOL. Highly recommend if you need an outfit for a theme party. read more

Need a costume this is a great place to check for rentals and purchase. All sizes, all kinds. Friendly staff and clean fitting rooms.

I had heard about this place for years and finally decided to give it a try. I was pleased to find they had a variety of costumes and vintage items at pretty reasonable costs. I wasn't greeted upon entering but I decided to let that slide as another customer was being helped. I found something relatively quickly that would work with my costume when the sales associate approached me and asked what I was there for. When I told her the event and the group I was with she proceeded to get very annoyed and rolled her eyes at me saying "oh yeah (that group)". I looked around the store some more but I couldn't shake the very uncomfortable feeling that she had just shunned me and the group I was with when, as a group, we've been giving them business for many years. I finally decided to put my item back on the rack because anyone who rolls their eyes at me doesn't deserve my business at all. read more

Wow, what a selection of costumes to choose from! We got three outfits for myself, my wife, and my 10-year-old daughter here for the Ren Faire. It was easy to find different sizes and companies with any accessories you needed. The owner was helpful and kind. She has been running this business for years and truly cares about it. read more

A cute little place to find the perfect custome. A friend of mine recommended me this place and I'm glad I decided to give it a try. The lady, I'm guessing the owner, was super nice and very helpful. She helped me to put together my custome including jewelry and head piece. It was perfect. You have two options; you either buy the custome or rented for half price of the tag. If you rented, like I did, you don't have to worry about getting it clean before returning it. You can pay with debit/credit card or cash. Besides jewelry you can also find shoes and other accessories. A lot to choose from. Just be patient trying to find what you're looking for. Parking is limited and the store is located inside a small plaza. Have fun! read more
