DO NOT GET ME WRONG, this costume looks very good when you put it on. There are a lot of working parts, zippers, buttons, velcro, etc. Unfortunately, the zippers and button straps are where I found my issues, which render the costume unusable. Keep in mind that you will need another person to help you put this on, which is fine; you can work around that. However, after only 3 uses within 1 week, the base layer's zipper and button straps (where the chestplate connects) have both broken, and the costume is unusable. Experiences may vary, but mine was tarnished as I couldn't use it for the sole event I was going to use it for. I had to physically tear the base layer apart just so I could get out of it. For a $300+ costume, I would just expect more from a durability standpoint. I give it 2/5 stars due to how good the costume actually looks and the incredible customer service; they really are passionate about their job and get you a perfect size, even if it takes 20 emails back and forth, truly incredible customer service!
I cannot in good conscience recommend this particular costume, though, maybe one with fewer zippers :'(
