How Does A Parent Shop For Kids Party Dresses?

Most kids have moved on from the usual fancy dresses that our parents made us wear pirates, clowns, Santa Claus, Fairy Princess and so on. The party dresses to wear for a fancy dress party these days include Spider Man, Harry Potter, Star War heroes, Rock Stars and so on. So how does a parent cope with such demands? Here are some tips to make the job easier:

-Know what the central theme of the party is. For instance it could be a pirate party, or Beatles theme, Alice in Wonderland, Jungle Book or whatever. For a Disney party, wearing a pink Minnie dress (or “vestido da minnie rosa” in Portuguese) is appropriate. Click here to see how it could look like. After knowing the theme, understand what your child would like to dress up as. It is better not to force your decisions on them.

-Search the internet or the library to get a picture of the character that the child is going to be dressed up as. Attention to details, especially when you are emulating a character, goes a long way in making the party dresses seem authentic.

-Finding the right store that can give you the items you are looking for is important at this stage. If you do not find what you are looking for in the shop at the mall, go online and search for them. There are countless shops online that specialize in fancy dress party costumes. However, you need to be absolutely sure of the size and other required measurements before you place the order. Also, it makes sense to know more about their return and refund policies in case you want to return the goods.

-Party dresses remain incomplete without the right accessories. Therefore, list out all the accessories that you would need to go along with the outfits. Order in advance to avoid disappointment regarding non-delivery of items, etc.

-Finally, keep in mind that some fancy dresses need facial make-up to authenticate the character. Use some face paint, made at home to give those final touches.
