Not what i expected.

I wasn't expecting much, being that it was 23 dollars, but I sitll expected it to be somewhat useful to me, which it isn't. It's basically stripes of colour haphazardly sewn together. The sleeve-holes are really just the space between two flaps that didn't get closed all the way, and there was no tacking or hemming of the edges of the cut fabric, so it's easilly frayed. These are easy fixes, for one who knows how to sew, but all in all, it's annoying and inconveniant. Also, they make it seem like the hood is risen, curved, nice and poppy, but no - you have to stuff it yourself. I have to hem it about eight inches before it becomes the right length for me [i'm 5'2, though, so I expected it to be pretty low] and that kind of stinks. The tie aorund the neck is not helpful, and while it looks to be black, purple, red and gold, it's really a dark green.I'm not happy with this costume because I have to put work into making it my own with reinforcing of the fabric, sewing, hemming, tacking and shaping. Still, I can fix it, and even a novic can do so if they decide to sit and do it, so I can sort of overlook that.Also, in general, the USPS, lies about knocking on your door, but when I went to get it from the post-office, it was on time, so delivery was good.
