Authentic Theatrical Costumes Chicago

For over 60 years, Fantasy Costumes has supplied theatrical costumes in Chicago for stage productions, schools, performers, and special events. Many of the vintage costumes now available in our store come directly from our historic rental inventory, offering professional-quality wardrobe you won’t find in typical costume shops.

These theatrical costumes were built for performance and longevity, making them ideal for period events, themed parties, cosplay, Halloween, and creative projects.

Vintage Halloween Costumes Chicago

Skip generic, mass-produced Halloween costumes and discover authentic vintage pieces that stand out. Our Chicago vintage section includes rare retro styles, historical costumes, and unique wardrobe pieces that create a truly original Halloween look.

Because many of these costumes are discontinued or no longer manufactured, once they’re gone, they’re gone.

One-of-a-Kind Vintage Costumes You Won’t Find Anywhere Else

Every piece in our vintage costume section has its own history. From period garments to theatrical wardrobe staples, our collection represents decades of costume craftsmanship. No two visits are the same, and many customers travel from across Chicago and surrounding suburbs to browse our selection in person.
