A good pirate has two personas, one for land and one for the sea. The pirate at sea should look as fierce as possible with hair askew, scars showing, and weapons at the ready. After all, when you roll up to that treasure-laden merchant ship you want to make sure that their captain knows that you're a group of tough Buccaneers that are worth their salt. Here's a little secret: while some pirates did live up to their violent reputation many simply intimidated the crews of a ship into giving them all their riches. Looking tough was most of the battle most of the time!
Well, the Captain of a pirate crew can't be greasy and scary all the time. What's the point of having riches if you can't go ashore and mingle with the people? Many pirates would have top end finery that they'd save for their trips ashore. Let’s not pretend these pirates were only men, oh no! One of the most successful pirates, due to her strictly enforced code of conduct, was a woman from China that ran a bigger fleet of ships than her country's Navy. We bet she had some stunning outfits for rendezvousing with the authorities to pay them their bribes. So, whether you're anchoring in wild Tortuga or the civilized ports of Portugal if you're wearing this ensemble people are sure to believe you got those diamonds you're pawning through only legitimate means.
You'll look like the epitome of a sophisticated captain of the 1600's in this ivory lace-trimmed jacket and white layered skirt. You'll retain that sense of authority with the wide brimmed hat while the cross belt with room for three weapons of your choosing will let those equally two-faced authorities know that you're no one to be trifled with. Just be sure to have fun with your sharp new look, after all, what's the pirate's life for if you can't have any fun with it!

Height 4'11 | Weight 160 | Size 1XSo well made, I needed to alter it,due to the fact of my body shape and being so short. I loved it and ordered one for my husband so well made.Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you?
- Love it!By Teri Race | September 7, 2017
LOVE the costume! It's very good quality and looks as good as the picture suggests! My only problem is the skirt is WAY too big. The jacket fits perfectly, but 3 of me could fit into the skirt, so I'll have to get it altered, which will cost twice as much as the entire costume! But overall, it's wonderful and I would highly recommend this for anyone.Was this review helpful to you? - Good costumeBy Tigger | October 23, 2018
I really like the costume, but as someone already mentioned, while the jacket fits well, the skirt and petticoat are huge. Also, the jacket could use a hook, or button to keep it closed.Was this review helpful to you? - Way too much materialBy Current Customer | August 31, 2017
The skirt is very heavy and would have to at least pin to something to keep it up.Was this review helpful to you? - Beautiful costumeBy Anonymous | August 13, 2023
Loved the costume and would have given it 5 stars but the skirt was way too big and I could have taken it in but the jacket was too small. The material was beautiful but unfortunately I had to return it because of the jacket. I have a large chest and went by the size chart but should have gone a size larger but then the skit would have fit me AND my husband.Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you? - Fabulous costume!By Desypher | November 3, 2022
Height 5’4” | Weight 200 lbsI actually could have gone a size smaller. I’m a big gal an i didn’t like the way i looked in the petticoat and skirt, but not to worry, i made breeches out of the skirt and will repurpose the petticoat. Everything was so well made! Only issue I had , and it is entirely my fault, i didn’”t realize there was no blouse, just the dickey. And the jacket had no closure . So i wore a long line bra, and took the seam out of the shoulder belt and used it as a tie belt. I also added some plumage to the hat. I got so many compliments! For a more family oriented look, i wore a burgundy tank top which highlighted the burgundy in the lace.Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you? - Captivating PirateBy Cynthia | October 19, 2022
Height 5’3” | Weight 198 | Size 2XI was pleasantly surprised how well this is made. I saw a lot of negative reviews but I’m not sure why. The jacket is true to size, however the skirt and petticoat are huge! Not a problem, pull the elastic Naturally there’s going to be threads, cut them off. I gave it a light pressing as well as the petticoat and it’s absolutely gorgeous!Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you? - Fits large!By Brenda m | October 14, 2022

Size 2XIt is a nice costume but the skirt part is huge but the top is tight. I can fix the skirt to fit better but the top can’t make bigger.Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you? - One StarBy Christina | December 28, 2021
I don't like the fit at all. Much too big. Also - for the price the material is terrible. I would like to return it if possibleBottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you? - Four StarsBy Anonymous | November 5, 2021
Fabric nice, made well, top fit nice but skirt and petticoat way way too big- will have to alter. Had to reshape hat. But overall niceBottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you? - Five StarsBy Monica | August 31, 2021
The quality of these costumes are beyond my expectations!!!! From now on this is the place to order from!!! I highly recommend them.Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Was this review helpful to you? - Pirate costumeBy Shannon | May 10, 2021
Height 1.68 | Size 2XNothing was hemmed properly - with loose trailing threads everywhere. Hat was buckled and bent. Elastic was too weak to hold up the skirt.
Fabric was a nice weight and colour and the jacket was flattering.
If you want a nice outfit that you can wear a couple of times or more you’ll need to fix the hems and adjust the waistband of the skirt. If you’re looking for a cheap unfinished outfit this is decent.Was this review helpful to you? - Five StarsBy Elena | September 27, 2020
