Product Details
What's Included

This Adult Little Red Riding Hood Costume delivers the classic Brothers Grimm fairytale look with a fitted off-shoulder dress, black corset waist panel, and signature red hooded cape.
The dress features a white ruffled bodice with elastic neckline for secure off-shoulder fit, a black corset-style center panel with decorative criss-cross red ribbon lacing, and a flared A-line skirt falling mid-thigh finished with white lace trim at the hem. The short hooded cape drapes over the shoulders and ties at the neck with a red satin ribbon bow, completing the innocent storybook heroine silhouette.

Perfect For
Book Week and Storybook Character Days: Whether it's Book Week at school, a nursery rhyme dress-up event, or a classic fairytale parade, this instantly recognisable Little Red Riding Hood costume ticks the literary character box with minimal fuss.
Halloween and Fairytale-Themed Parties: Ideal for Halloween parties with a storybook twist, enchanted forest themes, or fairytale balls where the classic innocent-girl-meets-wolf narrative adds instant costume recognition without gore or shock value.
Hens Nights and Themed Group Events: Works beautifully for fairytale-themed hens parties, storybook pub crawls, or group costume nights where the recognisable red cape and hooded silhouette photograph well and coordinate easily with other classic fairytale characters.
How to Wear It
Pair with white tights or ankle socks and black Mary Jane heels to complete the innocent storybook look. Style hair in loose waves or a simple braid, and carry a small woven basket for full fairytale effect without cluttering the clean silhouette.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size should I order?
This costume is sized for adult women. Check the size chart image on the listing for bust, waist, and hip measurements to find your best fit — the corset panel is decorative (non-adjustable lacing) so fit relies on the base dress size.
Are the shoes and stockings included?
No — the costume includes only the dress with attached corset panel and the separate hooded cape. White tights and black Mary Jane shoes shown in images are styling suggestions, sold separately.
Is this suitable for Book Week as an adult teacher or parent volunteer?
Absolutely — Little Red Riding Hood is a classic Brothers Grimm fairytale character recognised across all age groups, making it ideal for teachers, parent volunteers, or adult Book Week participants who need instant literary character recognition.
Can I wear the cape separately from the dress?
Yes — the cape is a separate piece that ties at the neck with a ribbon bow, so you can wear it over other outfits or remove it to change the look throughout the event.
How do I care for the costume after wearing?
Hand wash cold in gentle detergent, avoid scrubbing the corset lacing or satin ribbon trim. Hang or lay flat to dry — do not tumble dry as the polyester fabric may shrink or the ribbon accents may fray.
Care: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry, do not tumble dry.
