PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- White short-sleeve t-shirt with grey splatter print
- Yellow collared jacket with embroidered Roald Dahl branding
- Turquoise blue trousers with grey footprint graphics & elastic waist
- Golden Ticket prop (card stock)
This Kids Charlie Bucket Costume brings the hero of Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to life with a bright yellow jacket, turquoise blue trousers, and the all-important Golden Ticket. It's a licensed three-piece set that captures the moment Charlie finds his ticket to Willy Wonka's factory — instantly recognisable at any Book Week parade or Roald Dahl themed day.
The yellow jacket has an open front and embroidered Roald Dahl text on the hem, giving it that authentic licensed-product quality. Turquoise trousers pull on via an elastic waist (no fiddly buttons or zips), and the grey splatter print across the t-shirt and down both trouser legs adds the factory-floor adventure vibe. The Golden Ticket prop is printed on card stock with vintage-style borders — perfect for photo ops or classroom re-enactments.
Perfect For
Book Week & Literature Days: Charlie Bucket is a Book Week classic — pairs naturally with any Roald Dahl author study, chocolate-factory storytelling unit, or character parade celebrating kindness and imagination.
School Dress-Up Events: Easy enough for kindy kids to manage (elastic waist, open jacket, pull-on t-shirt), and recognisable enough that teachers and classmates know the character instantly — great for World Book Day celebrations or themed mufti days.
Roald Dahl Parties & Halloween: Works for Willy Wonka birthday parties, Halloween trick-or-treating with a literary twist, or any family event where you want your child dressed as a beloved storybook hero rather than a generic character.
How to Wear It
Pair with brown or black school shoes (sneakers work fine). The Golden Ticket tucks into a pocket or your child can hold it for photos. Skip any modern accessories — the whole point is Charlie's humble, hopeful look before the factory tour begins.
Parent FAQs
Q: What size should I order?
A: Check the size chart for chest and height measurements. The trousers have an elastic waist so there's some give, but the jacket and t-shirt run true to size. If your child is between sizes and growing fast, size up.
Q: Can they wear this over regular clothes, or does the t-shirt go underneath?
A: The t-shirt is part of the costume (it's the base layer), and the jacket goes over the top. The trousers replace their regular pants. It's a full outfit, not an add-on layer.
Q: Is the Golden Ticket durable, or will it get crumpled in a school bag?
A: It's card stock, so treat it like a special prop rather than a toy. Pop it in a folder or zip-lock bag if your child is taking it to school. It'll survive a Book Week parade but won't hold up to being stuffed loose in a backpack all term.
Q: Is this suitable for a Roald Dahl dress-up day at school?
A: Absolutely — Charlie Bucket is one of Roald Dahl's most iconic characters, and the licensed branding (embroidered on the jacket hem) confirms it's the real deal. Teachers love seeing kids dressed as book characters they can actually name.
Care: Cold hand wash, hang to dry. The Golden Ticket is paper — keep it dry.
