Buying a New Santa Costume?
It’s early, I know.
But it might be time to start thinking about your new SANTA COSTUME. The old one is getting frayed at the edges and it’s obviously seen way too many chimneys. Hmmm…is that a crumb? And what about that stain? Are they the remains of a cookie and spilled milk from a Christmas past?
All new Santa outfits should include a jacket, pants, and a hat; as well as a belt and boot tops (fake boots ala boot covers). A wig and beard may or may not be included with the costume.

The cost of the suits will vary considerably due to the quality of the fabric and trimming. If a wig and beard are included, that too will be a factor. Cloth suits are usually quite inexpensive, and of course, the plush suits are quite pricey, comparatively speaking. The quality of the white trim around the collar, down the front and on the bottom of the sleeves will also help dictate the price.
You’re on a budget, you say? As a lifetime professional costumer, I suggest that you buy the absolute best quality Santa beard and wig that you can afford, and the least priced suit; if money is an issue. A good Santa wig and beard will enhance a lesser quality suit; while a cheap wig and beard will substantially diminish the appearance of a good suit. You can always upgrade the suit in a number of ways at a later time.
Children will be looking at the hair and beard, not the suit; if they are looking at all. What are the attributes of a good Santa outfit and Santa beard and wig? Stay tuned, boys and girls.

Note that Santa suits usually DO NOT include the wig and beard nor other accessories like glasses, gloves, etc. These suits are in the middle of the price scale….while others are higher and still others are less.
