What's in the Box

Full-length black robe with wide bell sleeves
White habit with attached hood and structured coif
Black fabric veil to layer over habit
Gold cross pendant necklace
White fabric gloves

This Womens Catholic Nun Costume delivers the full traditional habit — floor-length black robe, structured white coif that frames the face, and a flowing veil that sits over the top. The gold cross necklace and white gloves complete the Sister Act silhouette.

The robe falls to the floor with wide bell sleeves and an A-line cut. The white coif is the structured undercap piece that sits close to the head, and the black veil layers over it for the classic two-tone habit look. Fabric is matte polyester — comfortable enough for a full day's wear at a theatrical production or costume event.

Perfect For

Theatrical Productions: A natural pick for The Sound of Music, Sister Act, Doubt, or any play with a convent scene.

Halloween & Themed Parties: Instantly recognisable at costume parties, Halloween events, or hen's nights with a religious-themed twist.

School History Days & Cultural Events: Teachers or adult volunteers dressing up for historical reenactments, Catholic school events, or cultural heritage days.

How to Wear It

Pair with simple black flats or closed-toe shoes for a traditional nun look. Add reading glasses or rosary beads (not included) for extra character detail. Keep makeup minimal and hair tucked under the coif.

Parent FAQs

Q: What size should I order?

Check the size chart for bust and length measurements. The robe is designed to be modest and floor-length, so if you're between sizes go with your usual dress size.

Q: Is the habit headpiece difficult to put on?

No — the white coif has a structured headband that sits on your head like a cap, and the black veil simply sits on top and can be pinned in place if needed.

Q: Can I wear this for a professional theatre production?

Yes — the costume is stage-ready with proper layering and structure. The separate veil and coif give you the authentic habit silhouette.

Q: Do I need to wear anything special underneath?

Wear a simple black slip or leggings and top underneath for coverage. The robe is opaque but layering helps with comfort and modesty.

Care: Spot clean or hand wash separately; hang to dry.
