Movie Costumes
We stock movie costumes spanning six decades of film style, from 60s spy glamour to today's animated blockbusters, in adult and kids sizes. Some name a character outright; others borrow the look of a film era without naming a title.

What to look for in a movie costume
Check what is in the pack first. The sets below run from a four-piece suit with hat and bow tie to a jumpsuit with a detachable hood, and that difference decides how much you still have to source yourself. Then read the size range on the product page: every costume goes through over 30 measurement checks, measured by garment techs trained in tailoring.

Film looks borrow heavily from their eras, so our decade costumes and historical costumes are the next stop for a period brief, and our Disney costumes cover the animated side. For everything else, head back to costume themes.
Frequently asked questions
What's a good movie costume idea for a group?
Pick one film or one decade, then let everyone choose a different character from it rather than matching outfits. Our range covers spy, horror, comedy and animated looks, so a group can mix and still read as one theme.
Can I wear a movie costume for Halloween?
Yes: several of our movie costumes, including the 80s Movie Nightmare Killer Costume, are built for a Halloween-style horror look, while others suit a lighter film-night or party brief.
Do you stock TV costumes as well as movie costumes?
Yes, our themed fancy dress range covers TV and film together; a character costume like the Kids Sonic Movie Tails Costume is drawn from both a game and a film franchise.
What's a good movie costume for men?
The Mens Evil Doctor Movie Costume (M to 3XL) and the Mens Dumb Orange Suit 90s Costume (M to XL) are both one-box outfits: one villain-styled, one played for laughs.
Do you have movie costumes for kids?
Yes, including the Kids Sonic Movie Tails Costume, based on the Sonic games and movies, and the Kids Sunny Starscout Costume, a My Little Pony character costume.
Should I choose a named-character costume or a generic movie-style costume?
A named-character costume works best when you want to be recognised as one specific character. A decade or trope-based costume suits a broader "movies" theme, since it borrows a film era's style without naming a title.
