PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- Green plaid aviator-style hat with attached orange synthetic wig
- Wagner the owl accessory (fabric prop)
- Gold owl pendant necklace
- Brown fabric glove (single)
This Kids Awful Auntie Costume Kit brings David Walliams' eccentric villain to life with four signature accessories that instantly say "I'm up to no good." The standout piece is the green plaid aviator hat with bright orange synthetic hair sewn into the ear flaps — one quick adjustment and your kid's got Awful Auntie's wild look sorted.
The Wagner owl accessory is the story detail fans will recognise — Auntie's creepy companion rendered as a soft fabric prop with grey detailing. Gold owl pendant necklace and single brown glove complete the character's quirky, slightly menacing vibe. Comfortable lightweight pieces layer over your child's own black top and pants (not included).
Perfect For
Book Week & World Book Day: A brilliant pick for David Walliams fans, Roald Dahl-style villain parades, or any storybook character day celebrating modern British children's literature.
School Dress-Up Events: Works beautifully for character parades, Literature Week celebrations, or kindy story time dress-ups — the hat-with-wig combo is instantly recognisable to kids who've read the book.
Casual Costume Play: Light enough for library visits, reading club dress-up days, or bedroom make-believe — the accessories pack away easily when the fun's done.
How to Wear It
Pair with a black long-sleeve top, black leggings or pants, and black shoes for the full Awful Auntie effect. Add a stern expression and maybe a toy telescope for extra villainous flair — no sewing or complicated makeup required.
Parent FAQs
Q: What size is the hat? Will it fit my 7-year-old?
A: The hat is designed to fit most school-age kids (roughly 5–10 years) with an adjustable or stretchy band. The wig hair is pre-attached so it stays put during wear.
Q: Do we need to buy anything else, or is this a complete costume?
A: You'll need to supply black clothing as the base (top, pants, and shoes). The kit provides all the character-specific accessories — hat, wig, owl, necklace, and glove.
Q: Is the owl accessory safe for younger kids? How does it attach?
A: The owl is a soft fabric prop (not a hard toy) that your child can carry or tuck into a pocket. Lightweight and safe for kindy-age dress-up.
Q: Can this be re-worn for other book character events?
A: Absolutely — the accessories are durable enough for multiple Book Weeks, school concerts, or World Book Day celebrations. Store the hat flat to keep the wig fibers tidy between wears.
Care: Spot-clean hat and wig; hand-wash glove and necklace; air-dry all pieces.
