5 out of 5 starsMy daughter wants to be a kitty cat for Halloween and because we live in northern Ohio, I needed something that can go over top of some layers. This will be perfect! It’s extremely well made and even though she’s already playing with the bell on the front of the dress, I really think it’s attached well and we shouldn’t have any trouble.
