Product Details
What's Included

The Adult Willy Wonka Deluxe Costume recreates the iconic chocolatier from Roald Dahl's beloved story as portrayed in the classic 1971 film. This officially licensed Rubie's costume captures Gene Wilder's whimsical character with theatrical Victorian-inspired tailoring and signature candy-themed details.
The long-tailed purple jacket features glossy satin-effect fabric with exaggerated notched lapels and a fitted silhouette. The attached waistcoat front displays a printed candy-stripe pattern with faux buttons, while the pre-tied gold bow tie stays perfectly positioned at the collar. A brown felt top hat with ribbon band completes the look. The decorative half-belt at the back waist adds authentic period detail to the coat's tailored fit.

Halloween & Costume Parties: Instantly recognisable at Halloween parties, retro film-themed nights, 1970s character events and fancy dress competitions. The purple tailcoat stands out in group photos and works for couples costumes when paired with an Oompa Loompa or Charlie Bucket.

How to Wear It
Pair with tan or beige dress pants (not included) and brown dress shoes for the complete look. Style with a shoulder-length curly wig in auburn or brown to match Gene Wilder's iconic hair. Add a toy cane or golden ticket prop for extra character authenticity.
