What's in the Box

Red and white striped dress with printed belt and magnifying glass detail
White and red bobble hat with pom-pom
Red and white striped tights
Black framed round costume glasses

This Kids Wenda Costume brings the beloved Where's Wally? character straight off the page — red-white horizontal stripes, round black glasses, and that signature bobble hat with the floppy pom-pom. It's an instant Book Week win for the kid who loves a good search-and-find challenge.

The dress is a one-piece pullover design with an integrated striped bodice and attached light blue gathered skirt. Chest features 3D printed details: a magnifying glass, Wenda's character badge, and a tan faux-leather belt graphic that looks sewn on. Back of the dress has a printed backpack with travel stickers for extra character authenticity. Striped tights, bobble hat, and lightweight plastic glasses complete the look — comfortable enough for a full school day, recognisable enough for instant photo ops.

Perfect For

Book Week & World Book Day: A brilliant pick for Where's Wally? literature parades, library story sessions, or any 1980s/90s nostalgia-themed school event.

Family Costume Groups: Pairs beautifully with Wally, Wizard Whitebeard, or Odlaw costumes for sibling or class group photos — perfect for hide-and-seek themed parties.

Halloween & Casual Dress-Up: The playful search-and-find theme works for Halloween trick-or-treating, kindy character days, or backyard costume play with friends.

How to Wear It

Pair with black Mary Janes or comfortable sneakers (not included). Style hair in braided pigtails for full Wenda authenticity, or leave it down — the bobble hat and glasses do most of the work.

Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

Check the size chart image for chest and height measurements. The dress has a relaxed fit through the bodice and elastic-gathered waist, so there's a bit of give. If your child is between sizes or tall for their age, we'd size up.

Can she wear this over regular clothes, or does it need a base layer?

The dress works as a standalone costume with the included tights — no need for extra layers underneath unless the classroom is cold. Short sleeves keep it breathable for active Book Week parades.

How do I wash the costume? Is it durable for school events?

Hand wash or gentle machine cycle in cold water, hang to dry. The 3D printed details (belt, magnifying glass) are heat-transferred appliqués and hold up well to gentle washing — avoid high heat or tumble drying.

Will the glasses fit comfortably for a full school day?

The glasses are lightweight plastic costume frames (non-prescription) with a universal fit. Most kids find them easy to wear for a few hours, though some prefer to slip them off between parade moments — totally normal.

Care: Hand wash cold, hang dry. No tumble drying or ironing on printed details.
