Products & Stock

How do I know which size is right for me?

Like fashion brands, each costume brand can fit a little differently. To help you with sizing, we have a very extensive range of size charts specific to every supplier for each of our costumes. The size charts are a clickable link on the costume pages. We recommend comparing actual measurements, rather than size, as this is the most accurate way to find a size that will be just right for you. In some of our product descriptions, we also provide measurements and additional information for each costume.

When will you be getting more stock?

We replenish stock as quickly as possible. As some items may take longer to come back into stock than others, please contact our customer service team for an accurate restocking time frame.

Do you offer made to order items?

Currently our only made to order items are mascots, which are available to purchase online. If you're looking for something specific, please contact our customer service team and we can help find what you're looking for.

Can you order something in for me?

Due to postage costs we don't offer one-off special orders, however if you're wanting to place a bulk order for multiple items please contact us and we will liaise with our buying team and see if this is possible.

Order Help

How do I change my delivery address after my order has already been placed?

If your order is in the process of being packed sadly we are unable to make any changes. If this is the case our customer service team will do their best to liaise with the courier to have your address amended.

Do you match prices?

CostumeBox will consider price matching online only merchants in Australia if the product is identical and in stock. For further information on price matching please contact our customer service team.

Why haven't I received a confirmation email?

All orders receive an instant confirmation email once processed. If you're yet to receive this please check your junk/spam folder, if you're still unable to find it please contact our customer service team and we can resend the email.
