Looking for costume help.. Violet

[cydswipe]

We just booked MNSSHP and my daughter would make a perfect Violet... buycostumes.com just have it up to 7/8. She's 9, so I'm thinking she'd need a 10/12... any suggestions?

Violet, the daughter in The Incredibles? Or Violet Beauregarde from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?

From the Incredibles? Let me look and see if I still have one upstairs after my daughter gets up. She is 13 though, so it might be a couple hours yet LOL.

Or Violet from "The Series of Unfortunate Events"? Which Violet, please?

 

[cydswipe]

... the Incredibles... never thought to clarify... I knew exactly what I was talking about!!!! haha

Sorry, checked her closet, I must have sold it already. Did you try e-bay? Someone might have the Disney Store version for sale, which is usually nicer than the costume store ones.

Depending on when you're going you might want to rethink this one. With long sleeves and pants it might be too hot. We were there from 10/17 to 10/24 last year and other than one night, it was still pretty warm out at night.

this is a very good point, it has been VERY warm every party we have been too.

You know, I was thinking of that today... I'm trying to convince her long sleeve/pants could get really hot... any suggestions for a 9 year old...?

Would she settle for a red Incredibles tee, black shorts and a black mask? It would definitely be a cooler costume version in such hot weather. Good luck!
