PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- Red satin dress with ruched bodice and faux-corset lacing
- White puff sleeves with black and red bow trim
- Tiered skirt with gingham bands and lace hem
- Red hooded cape with velcro neck closure
This Womens Little Red Riding Hood Costume brings the classic fairytale to life with a mid-calf dress and hooded cape that's ready for Book Week, storybook character events, or Halloween. The bodice features decorative red satin lacing across the front with black piping detail, giving it a vintage folk-costume feel without the fuss of real corset ties.
The skirt is built in tiers — white satin upper section flowing into red-and-white gingham bands separated by black piping, finished with white lace at the hem. White puff sleeves have small black and red bow accents, and the mock apron overlay sits neatly at the front. The red cape attaches at the neckline with a velcro closure hidden under a red satin bow, and the hood has a ruffle trim framing your face.
Perfect For
Book Week & Storybook Character Days: A natural pick for fairytale parades, classic literature dress-up, or nursery rhyme-themed school events where teachers need a recognisable costume fast.
Halloween & Costume Parties: The cape-and-hood combo gives you instant storybook character energy — pair with a wicker basket prop (not included) for the full "off to Grandma's house" look.
Themed Events & Productions: Works for school plays, community theatre, fairytale-themed fundraisers, or any event where you need a polished storybook heroine costume that reads clearly from a distance.
How to Wear It
Pair with black ankle boots or mary-janes and white tights (not included). Add a wicker basket with a red checkered cloth for the full Grandma-visit narrative. Keep makeup fresh and hair in loose waves or braids — this costume leans into cottage innocence, not glam.
Parent FAQs
Q: What size should I order?
Check the size chart image for bust, waist, and hip measurements. The bodice is fitted through the torso, so if you're between sizes, sizing up gives you more room through the lacing panel.
Q: Does the cape come off, or is it sewn in?
The cape attaches with velcro at the neckline, so you can remove it if you want just the dress. The velcro closure is hidden under a red satin bow for a polished look.
Q: Is the basket included?
No — basket, shoes, and tights are styling props only. The package includes the dress (bodice, sleeves, skirt, apron overlay) and the hooded cape.
Q: Can I wear this for a school Book Week event as a teacher?
Absolutely. Little Red Riding Hood is a classic fairytale that every kid recognises, making it a strong choice for teacher dress-up days or storybook character parades.
Care: Spot clean or gentle hand wash; hang to dry. Iron satin panels on low heat if needed.
