Plus Size Review: Sexycostumes.com Halloween Costumes

Sexycostumes.com was kind enough to send me a free Halloween outfit and a pair of costume saddle shoes for review. Sexycostumes.com has a great line of plus size costumes with a sexy style, including vampire, nurse, referee, Snow White, 60′s style, saloon girl, Robin Hood, honey bee, Queen Of Hearts, superhero Supergirl, and more.

I ordered the plus size costume Plus Size Black Velvet Flapper Dress (Priced at $49.99). The style is a 20′s flapper dress made of black velvet. The flapper costume is very pretty, with fringe and sequins that dress it up to create an authentic flapper look. The plus size velvet dress comes complete with a Sequined Headpiece w/ Feather Choker. Sexycostumes.com has a number of accessories you can pair with your costume, including wigs and shoes.

I received the package via FedEx, it was securely packaged and arrived in good condition. The quality of the costume was excellent, the velvet fabric was soft and substantial for a Halloween costume and the color was as shown in the product photo and the headpiece and feather choker also matched the photo.

The flapper dress features a silver and black sequin choker with matching headpiece with an attached feather. The dress is outlined with a black sequin trim and there is black fringe that hangs from the sleeves and bottom of the dress, making a flirty swing whenever you move. There are black and silver sequins lining the waist of the dress. A spandex leotard is also built in for added control.

Costumes are different sizing wise than traditional clothing you would find in the mall, you need to take this into consideration when purchasing a costume in general. I ordered my normal size and the sizing chart showed for the size I ordered proportions larger than what I typically wore. Upon trying the flapper dress on I found it was smaller than expected. The main fitting problem seemed to be the body length of the leotard which could have been longer, thinking it over now perhaps I should have ordered up a size larger.

The Black Plus Size Velvet Flapper Dress costume is available in sizes 1X to 4X for plus size women. You should check over the sizing chart that comes with every product costume page on the site, you may want to consider ordering up a size if you are close to the sizing shown in the chart, Sexycostumes.com suggests adding 3 to 4 inches in size beyond what you normally order in clothes for optimum movement in your costume.

Sexycostumes.com also sent me a pair of black and white saddle shoes (Priced at $19.99). Perfect to use for a 50′s look, they would be ideal paired with a 50′s style poodle skirt for Halloween. I ordered a size 8 shoe and was aware the length in inches of shoe size shown on the product page might be a little smaller than what I would normally wear. These saddle shoes are made in Italy and are quality made, they look great with the two toned colors which matches the product photo, and the shoes have a sturdy thick shoe sole as well. The saddle shoes are narrow to medium width so this is something to keep in mind when ordering. The size large/size 8 saddle shoe was an inch or more shorter than my foot length. In the case of these saddle shoes check the size chart and you might want to consider ordering up a size for the shoes which may be helpful.

You can count on excellent quality costumes from Sexycostumes.com, I was impressed with their costume, it’s overall design and their costume shoes. I think any plus size outfit you purchase here would be flattering and a good choice for your Halloween event.

Halloween Costume Article: Sexy Halloween Costumes for Women

Women looking for Halloween generally fall into one of two camps. Those looking for modest costumes to wear to work or with the kids…and those looking for sexy costumes to turn heads as they go out for a night on the town. With each year, costumes seem to get sexier and this year is no exception, with a wide range of sexy Halloween costumes for women to choose from.

There’s a new “red riding hood” costume, which is a breathtaking take on the well-known story of Little Red Riding Hood, which has become a staple of Halloween in recent years. This costume comes with a beautifully detailed red, white, and black dress that looks even more beautiful with a separately sold bright red petticoat. A large black and white polka dot bow in the back is removable. The famous red hood will give you that slight air of mystery. Pair it with sexy black high-heeled boots and some fishnet stockings and you’ll have a night to remember.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Pirates are always perfect for sexy Halloween nights, so why not be a pirate wench? This idea is a unique take on the old favorite. This costume includes a form-fitting black dress with a burgundy layer beneath and matching lace-up tie, as well as an attached peasant blouse. A skull on one hip reminds everyone you are a pirate, even if you choose not to wear the eye patch.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

One of the sexiest new costumes this year is a play on a Peacock. This costume gives a new twist to a peacock, with a bright blue corset and an attached purple feather-like skirt that looks just like peacock feathers. The matching peacock tail has feathers attached to a bright blue base with a large blue bow.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
For something equally as unique, consider being a SWAT officer, which turns you into a sexy crime fighter for the evening. The costume includes a form-fitting mini-dress with suspenders and an attached tank top that reads “SWAT” on the front in large, black letters. A black arm band and fingerless gloves make you look even more official, and a matching black garter fits over your thigh. Pair it with the knee-high Bandit Adult Boots and a pair of fishnet stockings and you’ll have your fellow partygoers looking on in awe.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
For true pop princesses, how about dressing up like Katy Perry? This will be one of the more popular Halloween costumes for women this year. This costume includes a bra top that has fake cupcakes over the chest area, topped with a bright cherry and short shorts. A separately sold bright blue wig will give you long hair with a matching headband that provides heart detail on the back of your head. Fans of the singing star will recognize elements from her popular California Gurls video in the costume.

If you’re heading out with the girls this Halloween, there are plenty of sexy Halloween costumes for women to choose from. Whether you’re a California Gurl or Peacock, you’ll light up every party in these costumes.
