Hire? or Buy Costumes?

Hiring is old school! This is why you should Buy Costumes...

The advantages of buying fancy dress costumes online. So you’ve been invited to a fancy dress costume party? Or perhaps it’s Halloween time again? Everyone likes to dress up and disguise themselves as a different person or character, however few people like to actually buy costumes.

Maybe you’ve decided that you want to dress up as a pirate or Julius Caesar, but all the costume hire stores have is older, worn and often bad smelling costumes. Hiring a good quality fancy dress costume that is in great condition, is very challenging and you don't always get what you want, you get what is left - if it is your size! Then there are the 3 trips to the costume store, to pick out the costume, next trip to pick it up and then dropping it off on Monday. It’s enough to put a person off shopping completely. A fancy dress party is a fun event and getting yourself organised for it should be fun too! Here at Heaven Costumes, we pride ourselves on making purchasing men’s fancy dress costumes and women’s fancy dress costumes a fun, exciting experience. Gone are the days of driving from store to store, getting more and more frustrated with the lack of quality and range. Just browse through our website to find a huge selection of brand new, top of the range outfits, and buy costumes instead!

The first and probably best reason why you should buy costumes online from our website instead of hiring, is you can get a brand new costume, and all the accessories to go with it, for the same price or even cheaper than hiring one! when you buy costumes from our store it means you get a top quality costume, never worn before (or even tried on!), from a trusted Australian online retailer, and you get to keep it! Spill a drink on your fancy dress costume at the party? Now you don’t have to worry about the expensive dry cleaning fees costume hire stores often charge, but take it home and get that stain out in no time by yourself!

Many people are wary of costume hire and for good reason. They are often poorly cared for, especially by those who wore it before you. They are also often stained and damaged and this really affects your enjoyment of them. Hire costumes can be great, but having your own is more satisfying and of course they are reusable. So why go for a hire costume, when for the same price or cheaper you can buy costumes and wow the whole room at your next fancy dress party?!

Chances are, you’ll be invited to more fancy dress parties in the future. Ordering several costumes and accessories from Heaven Costumes means you can mix and match wigs, eyelashes, sexy stockings, petticoats, sexy shoes and sexy costumes. This fun can’t be had with an old, stained hire costume, which you have to return to the store. The next time a party comes round, you end up having to hire a costume all over again, and go through all the struggles and shopping around once more.

Shopping online, especially at our store, is safe and secure, and can even be quicker than hiring a costume. Often you’ll need to drive to several hire stores, and in this day and age, who has the time? With ridiculous opening hours, most only open 9-5, and with many customers having work commitments and other lifestyles which prevent them from shopping, often people don’t have the time to get down to a hire store. And that’s where Heaven Costumes helps! Our website is open 24/7, and is never ‘down for maintenance’, meaning you can buy costumes on your lunch hour at work, or at home in your pyjamas with a cup of tea, even on the internet on your mobile phone! As soon as your order is placed, it can be sent to you via Express Post, and be delivered to your door or workplace the next day. This is a lot faster and easier than driving around for hours a day, checking out sub-par hire costumes.

When you buy costumes it usually means you’ll need accessories, which in turn means you’ll be driving around to a few shops to find that perfect costume wig, fairy wings, and platform shoes. Costume shopping online means you can find all this far easier. We offer both a search bar and ‘categories’ which customers can use to find all their accessory needs. We also offer ‘related items’ underneath all our product listings, meaning you can buy costumes with accessories that we feel match best.

Purchasing fancy dress costumes online means you go through much less hassle to get a costume that you absolutely love, and that you get to keep forever.

Happy shopping!
