Our granddaughter put on and took off this costume many times before halloween and then wore it trick and treating. It held up very well, with no pulled seams or tears. The mask is fragile, but with some tape at the first sign of damage, it held up though the season. We had tried to find this costume at local stores the previous year but had no luck. Having ordered it early this year we secured a good price, as it kept going up to almost double throughout October. Glad we bought it, our granddaughter loved it.
