We've found our seasonal storefront location and will be opening to the public September 23rd. In the meantime, you can still take advantage of our Summer Sale and shop on-line, or if you live in TO, pick-up at our office. We are getting new shipments weekly.

Check out our new arrival of Burlesque Top Hats. They are handcrafted by Trashy Lingerie out of L.A. These beautiful fully lined hats are a great part of any burlesque costume or just fun to wear on their own or as a showpiece in your home.



Also new, is a new selection of masks handcrafted in Italy. I am so impressed by the quality and price of them. Check them out:


Look how gorgeous I am!

Avatar Costumes Sneak Peek 
Friday, May 7, 2010, 02:14 PM - News



Costumes by Rubies coming soon to Ms. Dress-Up

It's no surprise that Avatar costumes are expected to be hot this Halloween. Here is a sneak peek of the costumes produced by Rubies. I haven't see the real thing, but they look a little disappointing. I am not a big fan of Rubies, and over the last few years, the quality has really taken a nosedive. I will however carry them as part of our Halloween inventory, and let you, the customer, decide for yourself. :)

I will have on hand many options for you to choose from. New this year, we will have the yellow eyes contacts along with many other styles and colours. As well, check out our selection of ears, makeup, wigs and body makeup.
