Owned and operated by husband and wife team Sunny and Charlie Suchak, Partiez have been on the High Street since 1986, bringing the weird and wonderful world of dress-up to local residents. You’ll always find one of them in the shop eager to help you decide which costume would work for anything from Halloween to book week.

Party Superstores, Clapham
Started in 1994, Party Superstores now has three locations: Clapham Junction, Sutton and Croydon. The shop in Clapham caters for costumes and more—props, wigs, make-up—and what you can’t find in store, you can most likely find online.

Your local charity shops
Don’t discount your local charity shops—especially ones like Fara that will often have a costume section. Charity shops are a great and affordable option for piecing together your kids’ own unique costume instead of off-the-shelf options. Check out our roundup of our top charity shops in west London.
