Official Harry Potter CostumesHarry Potter and the Half Blood Prince hits cinemas on Wednesday this week. Fear grips the magical world as Lord Voldemort, the most evil wizard in history, spreads disharmony in an attempt to take over the Ministry of Magic. His loyal Death Eaters wreak mayhem in the magical and muggle worlds. Meanwhile, Harry Potter’s life becomes even more dangerous as he accompanies his mentor, Professor Dumbledore, on a perilous task. Deep in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, hormones run amok, resulting in a number of likely and not-so-likely romances. Without a doubt, the sixth installment of the Harry Potter series will be the most exciting and darkest yet. Are you ready?

Cinemas around the country will soon be holding themed screenings to coincide with the film’s release. Why not celebrate in true style by attending a themed screening dressed as your favourite character? From Harry to Hermione, All Fancy Dress stocks a range of officially licensed costumes to suit all your magical needs.

If your fascination resides with the boy wizard himself, check out our deluxe Harry Potter robe school costume, which will transform you from mundane muggle to seriously cool sorcerer in seconds. Harry Potter has long been seen as a phenomenon for children and adults alike, so don’t get your robes in a twist if you’re an older fan, as we also stock our deluxe school costume in adult sizes.

The stakes are raised so high in the new movie that every character plays a pivotal role. While Harry is certainly the main player, he is helped continuously by lifelong buddy Ron Weasley and the infinitely resourceful Hermione Granger, who both attend Gryffindor House with him. Show them your support with the unisex Gryffindor robe, and prove they are just as important and cool as Harry himself.

If it’s Quidditch you’re quackers about, look no further. Harry Potter’s flying skills have saved his life on many occasions, and he is far too good a flier to keep his feet on the ground. If you’re itching to polish your Quidditch skills, our deluxe Quidditch robe may be for you. The costume comes with a thick hooded robe with Potter logo on the front and “POTTER 7” on the back, Harry’s official designation. It even has lace bodice ties on the front to keep it from blowing away when you’re 50 feet up in the air, desperately trying to locate the elusive golden snitch. And for that you’ll need a world class broomstick, included in our complete Quidditch set.

Official Death Eater CostumeStar Wars has Darth Vader. Terminator has the T-1000. Harry Potter has Lord Voldemort. And he’s more evil than the other two put together. As the most feared dark wizard in magical history, he is always referred to as He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named or You-Know-Who, and is solely responsible for the death of Harry Potter’s parents. In the sixth movie, Voldemort is at full power, and is spreading fear amongst the entire magical population. Are you the ultimate dark wizard? Do people flinch at the sound of your name? You’ll want our official Lord Voldemort costume. Terrify your friends by turning up as the most terrifying dark wizard of all time, and watch in amusement as they trip over their robes trying to please you. You’ll quickly become the most popular guest at the party.

If you’re more a follower than a leader, you might want to consider our fully fledged Death Eater costume, which comes with hooded robe with sleeves and a mask, so your friends don’t even have to know it’s you underneath. The Death Eaters are featured heavily in the new movie, attacking wizards and muggles alike in an effort to help the Dark Lord. Cause havoc and engage in a spot of muggle baiting, but don’t forget to always help your master in his quest to rid the world of Harry Potter!

Harry’s oily nemesis, Draco Malfoy, also plays a pivotal role in the latest film, masterminding a terrible plot to undermine the integrity of Hogwarts. Malfoy is a member of Slytherin house, which has turned out more dark wizards and witches than all the other Hogwarts houses put together. If you squeal with pleasure when he bullies Harry, or Professor Snape gives him detention, the deluxe Slytherin robe might just be for you. No-one will doubt whose side you’re on.

Are creepy monsters your thing? (we don’t judge!) Our Dementor costumes will surely satisfy. Dementors are the creepy, gliding demons who guard the wizard prison, Azkaban. Their presence stifles human happiness, causing a sickening, drowning feeling to spread through the human heart. Their worst weapon is the Dementor’s Kiss, where they suck out a person’s soul through their mouth. Lovely. But at least you’ll get your own row in the cinema.

Whichever Harry Potter costume you choose, you can be sure to get your dark magic fix at All Fancy Dress.
