Accessorize your Potter obsession

Withstand major curses with the PVC effect wandA costume is only half the experience. After all, take a lightsaber from a Jedi and what do you have? At All Fancy Dress we stock a range of add ons to help you go that step further in recreating your favourite Harry Potter characters.

No self-respecting Quidditch champion could live without a decent broomstick, and the official Harry Potter broom is so much more than that. Choose one of these and you’ll be the fastest thing in the skies. And let’s face it, accidents can happen to the best wizards, and that’s why you’ll need the Quidditch pads kit, to protect your body from those dangerous broomstick pileups.

If you’ve just become a wizard for the first time, we’re sure you’ll be itching to cast some spells. Spellcasting has always been a core component of witchcraft and wizardry, whether you’re causing an object to levitate or cursing a mortal enemy. Each wand is unique to the witch or wizard who owns it and contains a magical core from a special and distinctive creature. Harry Potter’s own wand contains a single phoenix feather. Luckily All Fancy Dress carries five different types of wand, so you can be sure to find one that suits you:

1. Our standard wand is perfect for most spells and curses
2. Those looking for a bit more oomph may like to select our PVC effect wand, which won’t shatter no matter how many disarming spells you’re hit with.
3. If you’re dressing up to support Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley or Draco Malfoy, we carry their officially licensed wands. These will give you the best results and can handle major spells and jinxes.

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is located in the heart of Scotland, and you may be worried you’ll catch a cold in the harsh winter chill. For that you need our official licensed scarf. It comes in Gryffindor house colours, so you can show your support whilst keeping the wind at bay. Especially if you pair it with our Hogwarts student hat.

Credit crunch chomped away your galleons? Choose our wand and glasses set and our scar make up kit for that authentic Harry Potter look, all for just £12.98. Then all you have to do is make your own robes. Magic.

Check out the full range of Harry Potter costume accessories to really bring your outfit to life.

The best from London, Hollywood, Paris and New York are at your disposal so bring us an idea and All Fancy Dress can make it happen. No party too small, no event too big and no idea is too challenging for our handy customer service department.

The most difficult part is deciding what part you want to play or what theme best suits your celebration. We can help. Whatever the role, whatever the size of the event, just make some basic decisions and leave the rest to us.

An Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta Grease Party is always a blast from the past. Whether you feel like a Pink Lady, or want the Pink Lady T-Bird Sweetie Outfit or the Sandy Dress Costume, those fetching looks take you back to a happy place when dancing the night away and strutting your stuff was paramount. We leave the wheels to you, but with our Film and TV fancy dress we can handle the rest.

Maybe you feel a little special, like a super-hero. Batgirl, sexy Robin, or Wonder Woman anyone? Lest you forget Catwoman say MEOW!

For guys and dolls, children and adults, there are closets full of TV and Film persona waiting to come to life at All Fancy Dress. Pick a film theme for your next bash or hen party and have fun selecting from a host of accessories. Recently added Spidergirl and Wonder Babe are getting lots of play and, well, plenty of attention.

For the guys, the Blues Brother costume with hat, shades and even a harmonica has unpredictable pull but superhero Batman has that something special. We carry lots of style choices but if you are Batman, you simply must have a mask, a cape and eye-catching tights.

Those Marvel comic characters keep coming to life with the most colourful outfits we have. Captain America, Hulk, Iron man and others will surely give you the super feel and the ladies a quiver.

Stars Wars fancy dress outfits never grow old. A full array of costumes and those wondrous accessories make every costume occasion a party. The Anakin Skywalker Glove, the Darth Vader masks and the Breathing Device are among the most popular. These costumes and accessories are fun to wear and let children’s imaginations venture to the other side.

Of course our Harry Potter collection has loads of flexibility. A variety of Quidditch, Slytherin or standard robes bring the perfect hero to every party. The Dementor costume has a slightly different effect but adds lots of impact.

The young girls love the Morticia’s daunting, mysterious qualities and look, but Pink Lady Jackets and Supergirl outfits are always popular. Whatever your heart’s content, we want to get you in the swing and let your every fantasy character carry you through the party.

Our fancy dress delivery options and convenient ordering system put all those wonderful TV and Film personalities just one click, or one phone call away. Last minute orders are no problem. If your party needs a boost, we want top help. Let’s talk about it!
