About MorphCostumes
A Morphsuit is an all-in-one stretch costume that covers you from head to toe, including your face. We invented it in 2009, and it is made from a breathable 125GSM+ spandex with a drop-stitch weave, so you can see out, breathe and even drink through it while no one can see in. It is the costume that started MorphCostumes.
MorphCostumes is a global online costume brand and the original maker of the Morphsuit. We were founded in Edinburgh in 2009 and now design over 1,200 costumes for Halloween, World Book Day, Christmas, stag and hen dos, and every party in between. We make your best times better with costumes.
Yes, we are a real company. MorphCostumes is part of AFG Media Ltd, based in Edinburgh, Scotland, and we have shipped over 10 million costumes worldwide since 2009. We are an award-winning brand, so have a look at our awards and press coverage, or read the full story on Our Story.
We are based in Edinburgh, Scotland, where the business was founded in 2009. We design our costumes here and ship them worldwide. Order from this UK site for delivery across the UK and the Republic of Ireland.
Yes, quality is the thing we are most serious about. Every design goes through 30+ measurement checks, and we run over 500,000 quality checks a year. Our fabric is a breathable 125GSM+, so costumes turn up looking like the photo, fit properly and last the whole event.
Morphsuits are our original product; MorphCostumes is the brand that makes them. We started with the Morphsuit in 2009 and grew into a full costume range, so you will find Morphsuits alongside thousands of other costumes on the same site. The website you are on now (morphsuits.co.uk) is our official UK store.
Yes, these are authentic Morphsuits, made by the people who invented them. A real Morphsuit has two zips for easy fastening and a special drop-stitch weave you can see, breathe and drink through. We always recommend buying from us directly so you get the genuine article and not a cheap imitation.
Our costumes and range

Yes, we have a big range of inflatable costumes for adults and kids. Think dinosaurs, aliens, sumo suits and more, all powered by a small built-in fan. They are a guaranteed way to be the centre of attention at any party.
Yes, we make a range of masks, from animated Digital Dudz masks to classic costume masks. They work on their own or finish off a full costume. Have a look at the masks range to see what is available.
Digital Dudz are our animated costumes and accessories that use your phone to bring a costume to life, like a moving eyeball or a beating heart. We developed them with YouTube engineer Mark Rober, and they pair a real garment with a free app. You can download the animated images to use with them.

Yes, we have stag and hen costumes built for a big night out. Group Morphsuits, funny costumes and matching themes are all popular, and we offer 10% off orders of more than five costumes. Contact us before you order to set up a bulk discount for the whole group.
Sizing and fit
Yes, our costumes are designed to be true to size. Every design goes through 30+ measurement checks, so the size you order is the size you get. Always check the size guide on the product page against your own measurements before ordering, as fit can vary slightly by costume.
Every product page has its own size guide to help you choose. Look for the small red size-guide button above the size dropdown on any costume, and measure yourself against the chart rather than guessing from your usual clothing size. If you are between sizes, the guide will point you the right way.
Morphsuits are comfortable across a range of temperatures. The 125GSM+ spandex is breathable, so it will not overheat you indoors or at a party, and it adds a light layer outdoors. For a cold outdoor event you can wear thin layers underneath without spoiling the fit.
Morphsuits are made from a high-quality 125GSM+ spandex with a four-way stretch and a special drop-stitch weave. That combination lets you see out, breathe and drink through the fabric while keeping it opaque from the outside. It is built to move with you and last the whole event.
Yes, most of our costumes come in kids sizes as well as adult sizes. Each product page lists the available sizes and a size guide with children's measurements. Our kids range is the quickest way to see everything made specifically for children.
Wearing your Morphsuit
Putting on a Morphsuit is simple: step in feet first, pull it up, fill the arms, then pull the hood over your face to finish the look. There is a double zip up the back, so you can do the whole thing yourself, depending on how flexible you are feeling.
Yes. Authentic Morphsuits have two zips, which makes them much easier to fasten on your own. As long as you can reach the back of your neck, you pull one zip down from the top of your head and the second up from the middle of your back. The two-zip design is what makes self-fastening easy.
You can wear whatever you like underneath, but tight underwear works best. Loose boxers can show as creases through the fabric, so close-fitting underwear keeps the look clean. If you would rather feel less exposed, simply double up.
Yes, you can see out clearly, while others cannot easily see in. We use a fine drop-stitch weave with tiny holes you can see, breathe and drink through. From the outside the fabric still looks solid, so you get the full effect without losing your vision.
No, it is easy to breathe in a Morphsuit. The fabric is thin, breathable and built with a four-way stretch, which is why people run marathons and play sports in them. You will be comfortable wearing one all event.
Yes, the fabric is thin enough to pour a drink straight through it. It works in one direction only, though, so liquids going the other way are a different story. Go easy on the round of shots.
No, please do not swim in a Morphsuit. Wet fabric over your face is genuinely unsafe, so a Morphsuit is strictly for dry land. Keep it for the party, not the pool.
Some of our costumes are described as pop-up because they are built with light wire frames that spring into shape. The wire gives the costume great structure and impact, then folds flat so it is easy to store and pack away. You unfold it and it is instantly ready to wear.
Check the back of the packaging first, as wash care varies by costume and fabric. To be safe, hand wash or sponge clean, and always remove any phone or electronics before washing. Never put a pop-up or wired costume in the washing machine.
