Title: belle of the ball Date: October 12, 2009
"This is my second year to purchase from this site and I am very pleased with all of my purchases. The only reason I gave the "true to size" a fair rating is because I ordered the X-large because it was the only size in stock and it was way too big. I usually wear a size 14. So, not the fault of the company. And for the price the dress is extremely well made and of good quality material. Once I get it altered it will be perfect! Can't wait to wear it on Halloween this year!"

"So when I got the costume I decided to cut the sleeves off to look more like Belle's dress and it looked so much better! It was also not as warm. I paired it with a hoop skirt that Buycostumes sells and it looked really cute."

Title: Great Value! Date: September 3, 2009
"This costume exceeded my expectations. BuyCostumes' service was seamless - I received my order in perfect condition and very timely. The costume is excellent quality for the price. The only drawback was that the bust area didn't quite fit and it couldn't be zipped up in the back, but I guess that's what you get when the size includes a range of sizes and not custom. Overall, I was very satisfied with my purchase."

Title: Prettier in person! Date: June 19, 2009
"I just bought this gown for an upcoming costume party and was delighted when it arrived. It looks lovely in the picture but it is even nicer in person. The fabrics used are just beautiful and I found the fit to be rue to size. The length is fine on a person 5'5 maybe a smidge long but certainly no need to hem it just makes the skirt look more grand.

Hard to imagine anyone being disappointed with it. In fact I just ordered a second costume because I was so pleased with this one ,for Halloween.

"Although I ordered another costume, when it was cancelled due to lack of inventory, I ordered this one. I recommend a petticoat and opera gloves to be more like the Belle you really want to be. Good value for the costume."

Title: Excellent Princess Dress Date: October 9, 2008
"I'm a plus size girl and this is the first time I've found a plus size princess costume with a Disney theme. This is a beautiful dress! I'm taking my son to the Disney trick or treat event and needed a dress that was conservative. Most other plus size costumes tend to be a bit revealing. I'm a size 20 and it fit me perfectly - maybe a little big in the waist. My only concern which is easily fixable is that the lining under the dress is a plastic material and a bit hot. I'm going to easily cut it out and it won't change the look of the dress at all. I highly recommend it!"

Title: Great, but needed some changes. Date: October 9, 2008
"I bought this, and received it two days later. I bought the wig and tiara that is recommended, and boy, do I recommend those. The tiara is of such high quality I was amazed, and the wig is of a quality that is difficult to find for a simple Halloween wig. The dress, however, has two problems. It comes with a netting under the skirt, and an attached "slip." The "slip" makes noise, and made the costume very warm. I cut it out just under the seam between netting and slip, and the problem is solved. The other problem is that the skirt is not very full. I recommend a petticoat or something underneath to make the skirt look more princess-like, and definitely more like Belle's from Beauty and the Beast."

Title: very pleased Date: September 9, 2008
"I was very happy with this costume. It came packaged very nicely and I felt like I got my money's worth. It did seem a bit big on me. I am a size 20, on the hips and 16 on top, so it ran a bit big.
However, it still looked nice and I know that I wouldn't have been able to wear the regular size. I would recommend this outfit to anyone. I wore it for my son's Halloween party and felt that it covered what needed to be covered.

Title: Best costume I ever bought. Date: October 25, 2007
"I was always frustrated in Halloween stores because the only Disney Princess in Plus size they sold was "Snow White" In average adult sizes stores sold every Disney Princess costume there is. I always wanted to be Belle from "Beauty and the Beast" and when I was a child I was bigger than other children and never got the chance to be. I am so happy to find this dress!!! It is made to the highest quality, I am a size 20 and it fits like a glove!!!! It was a little expensive, but well worth the price. I will wear this costume for years to come."
