Meri Meri, Lion Costume
Couldn't load pickup availability
Gold fringing, embroidered paws, a swishy tasselled tail, and the kind of headdress that makes a child roar!
The Lion costume is built from a lined canvas cape with gold fringing running along the edge, embroidered paws at the front, and a fabulous tasselled tail at the back — the tail is even removable with a popper button for the lion who prefers a tailless look. The headdress has sweet stitched eyes and nose and gold whiskers that are genuinely charming. Popper fasteners on the cape and a glitter elastic hook and loop on the headdress make it dressing-friendly.

Meri Meri was founded in 1985 by Meredithe Stuart-Smith — a mother who started hand-making cards on her kitchen table to fit work around her family. Named after her childhood nickname, the brand has grown to a Cheltenham-based design studio with 20 designers, now selling in 80 countries. Their dress-up range is couture quality for children's imaginations.
