They really enjoy their jobs at Pierre's costumes, that is obvious. Everyone is smiling at this place - customers and employees. This is not your cheesy halloween store, this is the real deal where you will get waited on hand and foot and end up felling very, very special. the nice thing at the end of this is that I actually ended up spending less than I would have at a party store, and spent lots less time and definitely had a lot less in the way of headaches. They are even able to help you with accessories, makeup, and wigs after they help yo with the costumes. I also found some great shoes to match my outfit as well. You feel guilty taking up all of their time there, but they do it all with a great attitude and a smile. I would suggest that you visit before you need the outfit. I saw people walking in on Saturday when I picked up my rental costume, and they were a little panicked (the staff were still nice to them) since they needed costumes that night! All I had to do was pick up my costume that I had already chosen (they were pressing and altering it and getting it ready for me). I do think that planning ahead would get you a less stressful experience, but I don't think that the staff would treat you any differently, I think that the stress is all your own.
Pros: Seriously enthusiastic expert staff, they're eager to please
Cons: Making up your mind. You are like a kid in a toy store
