Reviews of Uptown Costume & Dancewear (Costumes)

Brett Bauman

Great selection. But I felt we inconvenienced the staff by asking for help. Not nice staff. Buy online you'll get better service.

Courtney Paz

Great and unique products!

Mike Hollis

Great selection!!!! But customer service could use some big help.

Elizabeth Overweg

Cool costumes.

Kayla Kominsky

Came in for some early Halloween shopping have an incredible selection of costumes as well as any accessory you could imagine! Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Definitely will be coming back for more!!

N. E. Barton

Good costuming store for all your Halloween and Mardi Gras needs. Sales people are friendly and can answer some of your technical questions about stage makeup. Some Plus sized costumes available. There are some very nice,well made costumes for sale, but prepare to drop some $$$ These are not the cheaper imported costumes. The place will be very crowded the weekend before Mardi Gras and Halloween day so be patient.

Daniel Perkins

Huge selection of full costumes year around. No returns allowed.

Alex White

I wish so bad that there were better alternatives to this place, they are rude, never pick up the phone and there is a super wierd vibe here. Three people working I'm the only customer in the store and no one to ring me up. If I wasn't in desperate need, I would have stored out, but alas they get to be terrible because there aren't a ton of other choices

ron boone

it was Mardi gras while we were there and they had all the best stuff for Mardi gras highly recommended stop on your Mardi gras to her

Michelle Bourgeois

Reasonable prices and perfect for last minute parties...This store has every accessory, costume, hat, wig and makeup for all your costuming needs! The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable about the items they carry and how to put together an outstanding ensemble for the evening...love it

Mike Eckhardt

Had exactly what I needed, love this place.

Matt Mc Cann

Good selection if you need costumes. Halloween/ Mardi gras/ whatever. Maybe a tad expensive but I'm cheap.

Mikhayla Anderson

Awful experience. Had my purse taken away at the door without even a simple hello or explanation. Sales women were friendly and helpful but the two gentlemen were totally unpleasant. I’m a local and will not be returning.

Logan Williams

First of all, it's a mess. There's absolutely no organization and it's hard to really find anything. They're also probably some of the RUDEST and most unfriendly employees of any store I've been to in a long time. If you ask a question about how something fits or where something is, they'll just roll their eyes and make some sarcastic comment. It's a bunch of freaks who are rude to everyone who walks in. Avoid this place at all costs.

Zephyr Albright

Great breadth of costumes. Brian is fantastic & loves the costume game.

Elsa A

The store wasn't bad but the lady behind the counter waa rude and didn't greet us at all. Did not even look up or offer us help. Would've bought something but I don't want t o be somewhere where I don't feel welcome. What happened to southern hospitality?

NOLA G

They're quite helpful and knowledgeable. Great holiday and stage costumes and dancewear.

Shannon Manger

They bave a wide selection with nice quality

Chris Bourgeois

Every costume imaginable

Daryl Nitz

I didn't buy anything, but this place has everything you need for costumes. Staff to me was very friendly.

Arkady .

Insanely large collection! Pretty much any costume you could want, they most likely have.

Shannon Lewis

They are very rude and they want to demand that you give them your purse. They want to rush you when making purchases. This is my second time shopping there with the same bad experience. I prefer Humbug anyway over this place.

mikko presents

Really cool place. The people are very very helpful and friendly. They actually did not even have the one thing I was looking for which was dance apparel and still they gave me great suggestions. They have fully put together costumes and pieces. But it's not like Spirit of those other places where they just Tacky in the package things. It also happens to be next door to a classic old dive bar with cheap drinks so when you getting ready for Mardi Gras it's a perfect afternoon!

Jennifer Beach

Went with a friend for the 50th time. We're pretty regular customers. We spent around $300 and at the checkout I noticed the dog costumes and asked for the elvis in a small. My dog always wears a small at 6 lbs. Got it home & it was like 4 inches too short. Looks more like an XS. Called the store about 10 times, no answer. Called the following monday and was informed that I can come buy the exact same costume in the next size up but they would not exchange it. I can appreciate a no return policy (especially for costumes) but to be a jerk about swapping for a larger size in the exact same thing with a receipt and original package and the item clearly hasn't been worn is HORRIBLE customer service and ridiculous. Especially when it means losing a customer that has spent literally hundreds if not thousands of dollars at your establishment.

C Rod

Great costumes, terrible service

Christine Miller

All sales final evidently ooopsie would have been nice to know this ahead of time. No exchanges even with all original tags, receipt and the next day. Kind of extreme policy in my opinion even though I would have upgraded the product. It was my first experience there and I'm not in a rush to go back.

Gerald Schneider

Easy to find, plenty of help. Bad parking

Sarah Edwards

Reasonably priced for a costume shop and they usually have whatever piece I might be looking for. Staff is really nice too. They make you leave all bags at the front including purses, which doesn't make me super comfortable and also gets a little awkward when you want to purchase something but have to go back for your purse...

Russell Schafer

Great selection, good prices, decent service. I find it funny that people complain about the no return/no exchange policy. It's pretty clear on all of the signs. If you don't like this policy, I suppose you aren't forced to buy anything from them. Found exactly what I was looking for in under ten minutes.

David Zamikoff

Cool spot to grab a costume for your next party, massive selection.

Malene wiehe

Very good service, a broad variety of choices and I got my tapdance shoes ❤️❤️❤️

Liz Krinitt

Passing thru town and stopped in this shop today, after visiting a few other dance shops around town and being disappointed that none of them had what I was looking for. Amy helped me out with some shoes she had stumbled on a couple days earlier from their huge back stock. Call it fate? Maybe, but I definitely appreciated her listening to the specifics of what I needed and finding a match for me. Very personable customer service, which is not something I find too often in the dance shop world...someone should give this lady a raise! This seems to be more of a costume shop with some basic dance shoes, so I was surprised that they had what I was looking for...they have a lot not on the floor, tho the shop is packed with good finds...if you are wanting something in particular and can’t find it, be sure to ask before you leave :)
