What's in the Box

Yellow plaid button-up shirt with notched collar and long sleeves
Matching yellow plaid pleated mini skirt with knife pleats

This Womens 90s School Girl Costume brings the preppy Beverly Hills aesthetic straight from the iconic 1990s film era — yellow tartan plaid shirt and pleated mini skirt, sized for adult women who want that instantly-recognisable California high-school look.

The yellow and black tartan pattern matches across both pieces for a cohesive outfit. Shirt has a crisp notched collar, full button-front closure, and structured shoulders that give it authentic uniform polish. Pleated skirt sits high-waisted with sharp knife pleats that hold their shape through the night. Lightweight woven fabric keeps you comfortable whether you're at a costume party, 90s throwback event, or Halloween bash.

Perfect For

90s Throwback Parties & Film Character Events: The standout pick for any 1990s costume party, retro high-school reunion, or film-themed event celebrating iconic teen movies. Pair with platform heels and a mobile flip phone prop for full immersion.

Halloween & Costume Parties: A crowd-pleaser at Halloween parties, pub crawls, or any fancy dress event where you want to channel preppy California vibes. Works for solo or coordinated group costumes with other 90s film characters.

Book Week (Adult Teachers): Teachers dressing up for Book Week or film-themed school events can lean into this as a 90s literature/pop culture crossover — perfect for schools doing decade themes or film adaptation units.

How to Wear It

Style with knee-high white socks and chunky platform shoes or Mary Janes to nail the preppy California school-girl look. Add a small backpack, choker necklace, or pastel cardigan for extra 90s flair. Skip modern accessories — stick with retro pieces like scrunchies or vintage sunglasses.

Parent FAQs

Q: What size should I order?

A: Check the size chart for bust and waist measurements. The shirt is tailored through the bodice with a slight bloused fit at the waist; the skirt sits high-waisted and runs true to the chart. If between sizes, size up for a more relaxed fit.

Q: Can I wear this over regular clothes or is it a standalone outfit?

A: This is a standalone two-piece outfit — the shirt and skirt are designed to be worn as your main costume pieces. Layer a white tee underneath the shirt if you prefer more coverage, or add tights under the skirt for warmth.

Q: How do I wash this? Is the fabric durable?

A: Hand wash or gentle machine wash in cold water to preserve the plaid pattern and pleats. Hang to dry and press the pleats with a warm iron if needed. The woven fabric is durable for multiple wears.

Q: Is this suitable for a 90s costume party or Halloween?

A: Absolutely — this is a go-to for any 90s throwback party, Halloween event, or film character costume night. The yellow plaid is instantly recognisable and pairs well with other 90s group costumes.

Care: Hand wash cold, hang dry, press pleats to refresh.
