Comments about Lillian Vernon Skeleton Costume - Child:

Our 3 year old asked to be a green skeleton for Halloween, so I was delighted to find one! He was so excited when the costume arrived, and he loved to try it on every night leading up to Halloween. It does seem to run small, as the size 4-6 fits him well now. It's a little tricky to get the hood on, but it's workable. Overall, we really enjoyed this purchase!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Skeleton Costume - Child:

I wish the bones were glow in the dark, the costume was very difficult to put on and take off. It runs really small. I bought the size bigger purposely and it still was too small. I had to rip it for my son to get his head into the costume and the gloves were too small. The foot pieces we were able to adjust to look decent.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Skeleton Costume - Child:

My kids love these costumes. The mask strap on the 2yr. olds broke immediatley. (We were just trying it on.) The 5yr. olds costume is hard to get on and off, because the head opening in the back of the hood is not big enough. It's hard for him to bend his head down enough to pry it off. I will have to "modify" it before halloween. But...other than that great costumes! The boys are adorable and can't wait to "scare the neighbors" on Halloween. I thought when I purchased them, they might glow in the dark. But they don't. :)

Comments about Lillian Vernon Skeleton Costume - Child:

I received this item yesterday and both my son and I were disappointed. The size 4-6 is NOT accurate. A size 5 is loose on my son, however I couldn't even pull this costume up. Plus the hood IS attached to the costume and it is attached to the front which makes it difficult to put on. Also the plastic had a strong unpleasant odor which my son did NOT like.
it is a cute idea but misses its mark in sizing and quality.

My son loved this costume he is 4yrs old; and yes; it's a good thing that he is a skinny one because it is pretty snug on him I just hope he doesn't get a growing spurt between now and Halloween.

 
PERFECT SIZING!!!!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Skeleton Costume - Child:

Honestly, I read the above reviews and went according to the size "comments" and this is not true in my case. My son wears a 5/6 and I ordered the 8/10 and it was way to big. I ordered the 4/6 and it is perfect!!!! He loves the costume and the design is "GREAT"..... stick with the orignal size you need. Do not second guess!!!

 
sizing a little bit off

Comments about Lillian Vernon Skeleton Costume - Child:

This is a fun costume, but I had to exchange it for the next larger size which I didn't want to do as it is [$] more. My son is wearing a 5/6 but this costume (4-6) was not even close to fitting him....Way too small...couldn't even get it pulled up all the way or get the gloves on his hands.

Comments about Lillian Vernon Skeleton Costume - Child:

Very cute costume! The bones are actually a green color, which you don't really see well in the picture; unfortunately it does not glow in the dark. I bought it for my 4 year old son and it just fits him! He will not be able to wear it after this Halloween. And the mask for the little ones is perfect: cute, not scary! Some difficutly getting it on without tearing it.

 
cute but runs small
By Mom of a 3 year oldVerified Purchaser from Denver. CO on 9/14/2007
Pros:
Attractive Design, Lots of Fun
Cons:
Flimsy, Poor Construction, Ripped the first day, Ripped when it was put on
Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Skeleton Costume - Child:

This is a darling costume, my son knew immediately when he saw the catalog that he wanted this costume. He is three years old so I ordered the size 4-6 and it was very small. It ripped down the back when we put it on him the first time. The hood is impossible to put on by the way it is attached to the body suit. We live in a cold climate and there is no way he will be able to wear warm clothes under thisIcostume. The next size up is a size 8-10 and I think that will be gigantic on him, plus the next size up costs [$] more and I can't exchange the one we have since we accidently ripped it.
