The Dressing Up Shop

The best place for all your fancy dress and party needs. A huge range of costumes. Plus balloons, banners, all sorts of accessories, and more! Highly recommend

First time visiting this local shop. Great selection of items. Wonderful, friendly and helpful staff. They were full of ideas and options to help us achieve the perfect outfit. Definitely recommended.

Brilliant fancy dress shop
70’s disco gear (!)

Really friendly and excellent range of proper fancy dress outfits. Helped me find something that suited me (I’m 6’3”) and then worked to find extra bits for it. If you need a really good fancy dress outfit, don’t go on Amazon, support this great local store.

Lovely shop and lovely staff. Very helpful to an old man. Me!!!

Such a lovely shop with really friendly staff. I needed an outfit for Goodwood last minute, and Shirlee did not disappoint. She found me a gorgeous blue swing dress with fabulous petticoats, and even added lots of accessories to ensure that the day was memorable. I cannot recommend this place highly enough!

Always a great place to shop, lovely owner , many fun things on offer

Great range of outfits and accessories, and really helpful staff, we found just what we wanted

Great service from proprietor Shirley :-) Very easy going & natural to get along with, helps advise & do you up the way the looks should be & gives you confidence if lacking, with > 30 + years of experience since she established this business !! Great selection to to hire or buy. We would return next event that comes up!

Excellent service and lots of great ideas whatever the fancy dress requirements.

Absolutely love it here, visit and say hi to staff everytime I'm in Town

Very impressed with this shop and the staff who were really helpful on the phone and in the shop. I needed several Star Trek outfits and not only did they have them (quite a few other places didn't) but they were in good condition and they hired them at a very reasonable price.

Really great shop with lovely people. We needed outfits for a Bridgerton Ball....and they were perfect!
I would recommend them to anyone.

The staff helped me put together a unique Adam Ant outfit with a fantastic jacket. Great staff, and was 'best dressed' at our 80's Christmas party. Highly recommended. Very reasonable price and hire terms.

Great shop with loads of costumes to choose from and if they haven't got what your looking for then they'll try and get it. Lovely atmosphere and very helpful and friendly staff. Definitely go there again

Great range of items. Staff always very welcoming. Just emailed them a query and they responded very promptly. Lovely local shop

Great Service, the shop was really busy as it is close to Halloween, but it seemed all under total control

Wonderful place to find just the right outfit for a Fancy Dress Party, Shirlee and her staff go that extra mile to make you look the part. Thoroughly recommend.

Really helpful staff. If you can't see it on display, they'll check their stock. Came up with several ideas and let us try on outfits.
