Rubie's Women's Captain Marvel Hero Suit

PLEASE ORDER AT LEAST ONE SIZE DOWN! I am almost 5'5'' and around 116 lbs. I wear men's clothing, and my sizes are a 28 in pants and small or extra small in tops depending on brand. According to the Rubie's Adult Female Size Chart, I would be a medium in this Captain Marvel suit. I read all of the reviews that recommended sizing down and found a few reviewers who were approximately my height and weight and followed their choices. I ordered the EXTRA SMALL (two sizes down), and it fits wonderfully! It's not tight, which I like. It gives me room to breath and move and not have every curve of my body displayed. Huge plus for me as I prefer to appear more like a rectangle or inverted triangle body shape haha. I could not be happier with this costume. I am so in love with it!PROS:- Fully printed on front AND back! (Unlike the one at Party City, which is also more expensive than this one...)- Thumb holes at the ends of the sleeves!- Zipper closure on back! (As opposed to the Party City suit that has Velcro squares with gaps in between that leave little openings through which your back can be seen...)- The colors and design are instantly recognizable as Captain Marvel!- Belt accessory!CONS:- Belt accessory has a limited range of hip/waist circumferences it can fit.- Depending on your size and the size you order, the neck hole may flap around a bit.- Figuring out your correct size might be a gamble, so SIZE DOWN unless you're sure there's another reason you need a larger fit!Overall, I definitely recommend this suit. I've only worn it once so far, just to try it on and take photos, so I cannot speak on the durability of the material or the longevity of the print. I will be wearing it at least twice more this month, so if any of my impressions change, I may edit this review. Just wanted to get this review posted ASAP since others might be looking for a quality Captain Marvel suit for Halloween this month!Please note, the suit does not come with a cape. I purchased that separately. I know Captain Marvel doesn't wear a cape, but I wanted one for my own reasons.

I am noting that it was too large only because I read the amazing reviews left by others and sized down. I'm about 5'6 and 1/2, around 155-160, and I'm about 34 / 36C. I am more hour glass shape. I have thicker thighs but slightly smaller waist which often makes it hard to find things that fit in both categories, and sometimes I have a longer torso especially when it comes to trying on bathing suits and having to size up in a one piece because of it. I was also worried about a one suit because many other comments on other similar costumes noted the lovely issue in the nether regions , and after putting it on I can say there was no nether region issues! Per the sizing guide I would be a medium. I was super hesitant in buying the small because I did not have time to get another one in the event that it did not fit, nor did I want to have to go through the hassle of returns. But literally, the small (whoot whoot, actually bought a small for once in my life haha) fits perfectly! The outfit is thin stretchy material that is a onesie with only hole slots for my thumb which is better than the others because I need to serve my guests. It is not forgiving as it does show off rolls a bit , but overall looks great on and will be perfect as a match for my hubby's drunk Thor costume! The belt fits and is Velcro, but I could have used a medium in it as it stretches a bit weird, but still works and is fine. I really I hope this helps somebody who is similar to me in body. Regardless if you are of a similar size, as long as you can figure out what size you would typically be on their sizing chart, just know to size down and then boom, you are ready to rock it. I will try to add onto this review after I have worn it for the evening and let you know if anything changes with the quality of it.

I should wear a large for something like this but the reviews mostly said it runs large so I ordered a medium and it was the right choice! If my hips weren't so wide I could have gotten a size even smaller. But I don't feel like it's huge on me. It's not spandex snug, but it's not baggy, other than the arms.Pros:+Very vivid color!+Lots of armpit space and sleeve length.+Has half gloves - thumb, palm, but no fingers - so it's like having gloves but not suffocating and uncomfortable.+Plenty of leg and torso length+Back zipper makes it easy to get on and off+Comfortable to wear+wide shoulders fit my swimmer shoulders with wiggle roomCons:-The pants are slightly less colorful around the waist than the top, but it's not super noticeable unless you are inspiring it.- The seams show if it's stretched too much.-The lines don't line up at the waist but the belt covers it.-Torso is too long for me - but I'm only 5' 4.5"-Arms are really big in circumference (but I consider that a very small price to pay for having armpits that don't pinch)I really like there is a lot of wiggle room in who can wear this. It's fits a little odd on some bodies, but it's designed to work well with different body types, like mine. I'm very pear shaped and small chested so the hips are snug and the chest is loose on me but that's fine. Someone with a normal or bustier size chest would fit just fine. It's longer than I am, but being only 5 ' 4.5" that's to be expected. The torso is longer than I think most women, but that means that tall women could wear it, too, which is awesome. The arms are unusually long, but the palms only go about an inch past my palms so I'm find with that. A LOT of women's out fits have arms that are too short. If I stretch my arms out they are an inch above my wrist. This fits much better.The legs are nice and long and tapered so even though it's able to fit someone inches taller than me, it doesn't hang down past my ankle and it doesn't look oddly bunched up. The thighs are a little stretched on me and the calves are loose because I have big thighs.I don't think I know a woman with arms as big in circumference as these sleeves, but I can live with that. That's the biggest annoyance and why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. I think the other cons are not worth lowering the rating.My measurements:Height: 5' 4.5" barefoot.Torso: 18"Inseam (ankle bone to crotch): 25"Bust: 37" (mostly from roundness of body not chest size)Hips: 40"Waist: 40"Circumference at thigh height: 41"Thighs: 24"Calves: 13"Shoulder to wrist: 19.5"Bicep: 12"Forearm: 8.5"Shoulders (at upper bicep, not tops, 'cause that's wider on me: 18"
