Can I Hire Online?
No.
We have a busy bricks & mortar store with people in & out trying costumes on all the time. We’re working to leverage technology as much as we can, however imagine if you were in the change-room & someone had booked your chosen costume online before you’d had the chance to put your pants back on?! Not a good look…
In addition, a lot of what we offer at Fancy That! is one-on-one styling with mix & match, one-off accessories. It’s pretty tricky to automate.
If you see something you like online, you can reserve it with us over the phone by providing a $44 non-refundable holding deposit. We will just need to site your licence or photo I.D. when you come instore to collect – or have you forward a scanned copy of same to us via email, if you require costume delivery.
Standard Hire Period
Our standard hire period for weekend events is Wed to Mon, with return due on Monday whether you collect on Wed, Thurs, Fri or Sat.
Mid week, it’s 3 days eg Mon – Wed, Tue – Thur.
Additional days are available at $22 per day. Should you wish to retain the costume for more than 3 additional days, it becomes a double hire. See Conditions of Hire for details.
We do aim to be flexible re this in the traditionally quieter months of Jan & Feb each year, where many companies hold offsite conferences & returning within a shorter timeframe can be difficult.
Hire Outside Sydney?
Sorry, no. We don't post our Hire costumes.
Many of our costumes are large, heavy, handmade, vintage or one-of-a-kind, making them expensive to ship & simply too precious to risk in transit. And if we ever needed to chase up an overdue return... we're really not keen on boarding a plane.
If you're outside Sydney, we'd encourage you to support your local costume hire business. They're becoming harder to find & we'd love to see them stick around.
What Info Do You Need?
To hire a costume, you'll need to provide a current Australian driver's licence or photo ID showing your current address, along with a valid credit card. This helps us protect our much-loved hire collection.
Description
Description
With its fine, intridcate beading, curved lines & “Roman” hem, the Vixen reflects the classic glamour & elegance of the roaring ’20s. It is named in honour of Louise Brooks – an American dancer, model, showgirl & silent film actress – the ultimate Vixen of the flapper era!
Inclusions:
- Beaded Headpiece
- Wig (optional)
- Faux fur stole , jacket or feather boa
- Bead Necklaces
- Beaded Dress
- Silk Slip
- Gloves
Each dress has been produced by the same company that made the gorgeous beaded dresses as seen in the award winning film, “The Artist”. They take between 70 – 90 hours each to bead & we at Fancy That! Costumes have purchased supplies of enough beads to re-bead each dress in it’s entirety, to ensure they are scrupulously maintained to the quality standard you would expect for the price. Furthermore, we stock no two the same in our wardrobe. You can purchase this dress & matching bandeau alone from the lovely Linda de Clario of Vintage Now Clothing in Rosebud, Victoria, for just under $470. OR congratulate yourself on how savvy you are by saving hundreds of dollars by hiring the fully accessorised look from us (that’s more money to spend on the champagne!) A note on sizing:
- The slip is cut on the bias & beading is sewn into stretch mesh. Your body shape is the ultimate determinant however it should fit sizes 16 through to 20
- “X-Large” – Indicative measurements here:
- Bust: 38 – 46″
- Waist: 35 – 42″
- Hips: 42 – 46″
A note on styling:
- We recommend keeping jewellery to a minimum on these deluxe beaded dresses – they are jewelled enough in themelves! A bare neckline & some pretty, drop diamonte or pearl earrings are generally best.
- Similarly, avoid fishnet stockings – opt for bare legs or a simple nude backseam.
- Shoes should be closed toe, low heel, with a t-bar or Alice band ankle strap – perfect for Charlseton-dancing the night away!
