You have to dig around a bit, but the time I went I ended up with something completely different and it was a big hit! It's not too expensive, and you have enough time to get the items back without having to rush. Great service too, and lovely people.

There is always a funky window display to check out and get a feel for the type of costumes they have. The launderette part of Fancy Pants has a number of washing machines and tumble dryers, including larger ones for big things like duvets etc. They run quite cheap, and change for the machines is provided there if you need it. The staff there are really good and very helpful. There is a pretty good seating area to wait while your clothes are washing, and there are magazines provided to help the time pass quicker!

Head upstairs and an Aladdins cave awaits you! The place is packed with everything , and I mean everything! It has served me so well in costumes for all my family including the victorian and tudor fancy dress for school trips. The staff could not be more helpful, and are very generous with how long you have the outfit for. They happily come up with suggestion after suggestion.. If I had to say anything against Fancypants it would be about the changing facilities which is the toilet - not the nicest changing area, but this is more than made up for by the enthusiasm of the staff.

The store is colourful and it's large space means it can hold a great number of props, wigs and costumes, but watch out because it can get extremely busy around seasonal holidays. Although the store is full of the weird and wonderful it is over priced, in my opinion, and the staff are not always the friendliest. When you walk in you expect this to be an amazing party shop, because of it's size and vibrancy, but instead you get a shock when a tiny pot of fake blood will cost you over a fiver! I recommend finding another party shop, if you can, to save yourself some pennies.
