A nun costume doesn't have to go to the floor. This one is a short black dress with a white clerical collar, flared sleeves, and a habit with a white band at the forehead. You get the headpiece and the collar in the same box, which is what stops it reading as a little black dress you happened to wear with a veil. The hem sits well above the knee, with a lace edge, so the look is costume-night rather than chapel.
The short hem is the choice that changes how you wear this. A floor-length habit covers everything and reads as traditional; cutting it to the thigh, then adding the collar and habit, gives you the nun outline without the full coverage. That's the difference between a costume you can actually move in and one you trip on. Worth knowing before you order: the boots in some pictures are not part of the set. You get the dress, the habit and the collar.
It's a close-fitting mini dress with long flared sleeves, a high collar, and a habit that sits on your head. Coverage is short at the hem and full on the arms. Compare your measurements to our size chart before you order, and if you're between sizes, size up. Fit shifts a little with torso length, and that extra bit of room tends to sit better than going too snug.
It's a smooth, opaque fabric on the dress and habit; a polyester mix that gives you a matte face rather than a shine. We'd suggest a gentle hand wash in cool water and laying it flat to dry, away from direct heat, which keeps the shape and finish intact for longer.
You get the headpiece in the box. That's the part most short nun costumes leave you to fake with a scarf, and it is what makes this one look finished when you walk in.
What size nun costume should I order?
Match your bust and hip to our size chart, and if you're between sizes, go up so the mini and sleeves aren't sitting tight.
What is it made from?
It's a polyester mix. We don't get a percentage breakdown, so we won't guess one for you.
Does it include the habit and collar?
Yes. The dress, the habit with the forehead band, and the white collar come together. Boots are not included.
