This is an adorable set, my 3 year old is insisting I be the cheshire cat for halloween (she is going to be alice). I read the comments about the short tale. It's certainly not a long tail but it's not stubby/weird. I was happy with it and liked the loop on the back, seemed to be made very well. The headband is cute and my 1 year old quickly stole it from me. Cute set. I'm going to wear a purple tutu and pink stripped tank top.
