Processing Time

COSPLAY HOUSE is a 'Made to Order' tailor shop. If you are looking for Halloween style, low-budget costumes, our shop is not for you. Our costumes are high quality compared to other costumes. We do not mass produce products, instead, all of our costumes, wigs, shoes and props are made to order. We use several different tailor teams to hand-make our products. We intend to meet your needs with passion and love, as realistic as a costume can get.

Since our products are made to order, they require a process time. When your order is placed, our team will start reviewing the character and plan the costume-making along with designing the pattern. Our team carefully considers and prepares the materials for your Cosplay. In rare instances, some fabrics may become unavailable from our suppliers and we have to use something similar to the original which results in slight differences in design, style, color and materials. We can only work with the best materials we have at the time. Even though the actual cutting and sewing does not take very long, it's the planning, reviewing and preparation of your Cosplay that takes time.

First time costumes will always take a little longer to complete than others, as well as costumes and props with very intricate design and detail. Commission Requests could take twice as long as the normal process time because we have to do research on price, design and detail. It is best to plan and place your Cosplay order ahead of any conventions, parties or special occasions to make sure you receive it on time.

COSTUMES(3-5 weeks, including shipping with USPS)

All costumes take an average time of 3-5 weeks to be hand-made and delivered. We use our own tailor team to construct your costume and they use the best materials that are available at time of production. There will always be slight differences in design, color, materials and style because they are 100% hand-made.

Please note that some costumes require a longer processing time due to complicated designs or hard to find fabrics.

This is a place where you can submit a commission if you do not see it on our website. There is no obligation to purchase if you submit one. Once you submit the request, it will take about 7-10 business days for us to do our research and get back to you on price, details, links, etc. It is very important you provide us with enough images. The more detailed they are, they more accurate your costume will be. Please take note of the production times above when submitting a request. These are items that we are making for the first time, and extensive planning and reviewing goes into them.
