Give Me Liberty!
Not all revolutionaries were guys in curly wigs and knee breeches. Some were the ones who knew that even though the war with England was over, the battle for women's rights still had to be fought. Susan B. Anthony was one of those trailblazers who knew that there would be no true liberty until women were given the same level of respect, the same opportunites for work, and the same right to join in cultural and political adventures as men.
Product Details
This exclusive Women's Susan B. Anthony is perfect for courageous women of any generation who know how to stand up for what they believe in. The floor-length black polyester dress will look amazing whether you're sweeping down the street as part of a peaceful protest or standing in front of a podium giving a rousing speech. Black lace ruffles on the full-length sleeves add an elegant touch and complement the white ruffles on the bodice inset and wrist cuffs. A zipper down the back makes this outfit much easier to get into than the millions of buttons that were typical of that era. (You're welcome.) A metal pendant is attached to the white collar. All you need is a comfortable pair of shoes. Your fearless campaigning will have you on your feet a lot!

- Good Nadja costumeBy Stasya | October 8, 2021
Height 5’10” | Weight 160I purchased this for a Nadja costume from What We Do in the Shadows. It’s perfect for that. I’m adding a red bow around the neck, a deco-style crystal belt at the waist, and a black lace overlay on the skirt.
Measurements: 36” bust, 32” natural waist, 39” hip. I’m 5’10”. I went with the size L because I thought a smaller size wouldn’t fit my waist. Size Large fit my waist and hips comfortably but was way too big at the bust, as expected. The back and shoulders were appropriate for my shape though. If you have a similar shape to me, but a larger bust then it’ll fit well. The measurements listed on the website are completely accurate. There’s enough going on with the white ruffles in front that I don’t think anyone will notice that it’s a little baggy at the bust for me. Note that there’s no stretch on the fabric, so if you are between sizes, then size up. The length is good for my height. I was planning to wear some Victorian style heels, but I’m going to wear flats since I don’t think the shoes will show, and it’s not dragging. If you are a little shorter, some heels will keep the skirt from dragging. The dress is pretty warm sincere the fabric is thick polyester, and there’s a lot of it. It’ll be good for late October.Was this review helpful to you?

Thanks again for this review! - Giant Sizing and details just okBy Nicole B Garzino | October 15, 2024
Black fabric is decent quality and weight so points for that! But the details are wonky. The edge of the neck is great, with some eyelet material. But the white frills look cheaper - with nearly sheer cotton (lightweight) and stitching that looks really costume-y. Too bad the eyelet trim doesn't go down the frills or a heavier cotton isn't used. The cameo isn't one - it is just a circle of metal. The backside of the cameo necklace looks like a cameo wasn't meant to go in but isn't. In fact, I thought it fell out until I double checked the website photos. Hard to see the details on the website. Other issue is sizing. I bought for the waist and chest measurements which were right on. However, the arms are weirdly long. Like hang down about 2-3 inches past my fingertips (for the XL size). I'll have to cut and re-attach trim or put elastic under the "poof" to hold the arms up higher. The size chart may be wrong as it says sleeve length 26" but I measure at least 29" with my own measuring tape. Also note how long the dress is (going to have to hem for my 5'5" frame), but this is common for historical costumes.Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you? - Four StarsBy Rachlerar | August 23, 2022
Size MediumThis is a beautiful costume but the top part runs SO SMALL!! Omg. I’m a medium across the board everywhere, 36C/D chest and I couldn’t move my arms in this without fear it would rip immediately. Going to try going up a size because I do love it, but hope it’s not too big elsewhereBottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you? - Five StarsBy Anonymous | October 11, 2021

Height 5'4" | Weight 130 | Size MediumI am mainly writing this review to let you know about the sizing. I am 5'4" and about 130 lbs. It fits pretty well except it's a little long. There is a lot of fabric in the skirt! But I think a small would have been too tight. Knowing quite a bit about Susan B. Anthony, I can say this is decently close to what she would wear (although of course there weren't synthetic fabrics like this in those days!) and I feel like this is a decent costume for the price. Now I just need some round, wire-rimmed glasses!Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you?Monster Responds...We're so glad that you found our Susan B. Anthony costume made a good historical costume. We hope this costume is a favorite for years to come. - Perfect!By Anty Anne | October 24, 2020
Height 5’ 8” | Weight 170 | Size X-LargeThis dress surpassed my expectations! I needed a Victorian funeral dress, not for Halloween but, In November for a sketch event at the cemetery that my husband and I oversee. Local sketchers will gather throughout the cemetery to sketch whatever they see. I’m going to be a model for that event. Very good quality and perfect fit. I’ll need to hem it up but I’d rather it be too long rather than too short. That allows me to hem it according to whatever shoes I want to wear. And it arrived 5 days earlier than the stated delivery date. Thanks, HalloweenCostumes.com.Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you?
