Hey hey!
Here's a review on a costume I got from Miccostumes!
I've been dying to try their Persona 5 costumes and I am so pleased with what I got!
Please excuse the awkward positions and expressions. I'm not very good at this~.
So, the full costume looks like this.
It's made with pleather covered spandex, which makes it extra stretchy and comfortable.
The white pieces are made out of plush fabric/felt/fleece. I'd prefer if it were also stretchy spandex, but it looks okay in the photos.
The costume looks very pretty in photos. It's so slimming and it fits so well! I'm surprised as I usually get costumes that are either too big or too small for me when shopping online.
The buttons are made out of metal and the zipper is fully functional.
It's a little tricky to get into as it's tigth on the shoulders.
As you can see, the costume doesn't look baggy on me at all (maybe a bit on the back, but no biggie). I picked the smallest size and it's quite comfy!
The tail hangs from the belt and the belt goes around the waist instead of the hips. I think the belt could be a little bigger, but I dont think it's much of a problem as it helps make my figure look less curvy.
Here's a little closeup on the sleeves, that are a liiiiiittle too tight on my wrist. It's not bad, but it can get a little uncomfortable...
The belt is made out of an interesting fabric! It's a very thick braided cotton!
The tail is made out of fake fur and it's easy to brush into the shape you'd like. I didn't bother styling mine much, but it's very light and it has a wire on the inside, so it can be curved into any shape!
Well, so far the costume is great! There's one little detail that I dislike tho and it's the gloves and the boot covers.
The gloves are very big on me and don't look anything like Yusuke's gloves.
The boot covers are just fabric and they are sheer, so they don't do much of a job covering anything.
I recommend buying these separately elsewhere for the accuracy!
Shipping: The costume was shipped to me by a very fast courier and was delivered within days of it's shipment. It didn't pass through the customs and it definitely didn't get extra charged! The store even labeled it as a very cheap halloween costume, so it helped a lot!
Communication: The store is very responsive and it might be one of the little stores online that keeps up with the new series and invests in good quality costumes (well... asides for the gloves and boot covers haha~)!
Overall quality: I think that the costume is great quality. I couldn't make something like this myself even if I tried! It's very warm and comfortable to wear in colder weather. Definitely recommend trying it out!
Thank you for reading <3
