I ordered this costume so I could match my 8 month old son for his 1st Halloween. I had borrowed a Supergirl costume from a friend a few years ago (it was polyester stretch body suit with an attached skirt& cape)so I was expecting something very similar. Much to my surprise, this AMERICAN made costume was a fairly substantial poly VELVET with nylon lame cape and skirt. Very nice embroidered patch emblem on front, too! My ONLY points off: nothing under the skirt(I wore tights and a pair of red yoga shorts under it) and one of the boot covers started coming apart as soon as I put it on(a little, still wearable) not to mention, the boot covers are very skinny-I have fairly average calves and they were VERY tight on me! I will be abler to wear it many times again-LOVE IT! Now on to Batgirl....
