Costumes are fancy dress items and cannot be expected to be tailor-made to fit everybody exactly; however, Mad Hatters do guarantee to give as much information regarding sizing and possible alterations in order to make it the right costume for you. Sizing is indicated on the Wonderland site as accurately as possible, therefore any costume dispatched which does not fit will not be refunded unless authorised especially by Mad Hatters.

If items required for a Saturday event are not received back by the following Wednesday additional day hire rates will be incurred, per additional day that they are retained by the customer.
It remains the customer’s responsibility to inform Mad Hatters if there is going to be a delay in returning items. Mad Hatters reserves the right to waive additional hire charges according to individual circumstances, however customers should expect to be charged full daily rates for each additional day that the costumes are not returned. If the courier is booked for a collection on the agreed date and is unable to pick the item up, customers may incur penalty fees.
