Meri Meri, Flamingo Costume

Three tiers of ruffled pink tulle, a velvet headdress, and glitter wristbands — a flamingo costume that earns its place in any dress-up box.

The Flamingo costume is the pinkest, ruffled-est thing in the Meri Meri dress-up range and makes no apologies for it. The cape is built from three generous tiers of pink layered tulle, finished with glitter wristbands; the headdress is soft pink velvet with sweet embroidered features and a glitter fabric detail. Both close easily — the cape with a popper fastener, the headdress with a glitter elastic hook and loop — keeping the wearing experience as enjoyable as the looking. For birthday parties, party days, or Book Week, the flamingo is an instantly recognisable character with a long tail of picture book appearances.
