Fantasy World is a family run business that was established back in 1975. Our "headquarters’ is our York branch originally a small shop, it has been extended and extended to provide three floors of over 5000 costumes, a wig and novelties area, as well as our laundry and offices.

In 2001, we decided to open a second branch in Ossett, Wakefield. We found a perfect showroom on two floors.

Your party starts when you visit us. We have a large and varied stock of outfits and accessories. Our trained staff are friendly and there to help you enjoy yourself!

We are members of the British Costume Association and are working hard to transform the image of fancy dress shops in the UK. We follow the Associations code of conduct and all our costumes are laundered after each hire. From a Womble to a serious period outfit, you will probably find it at Fantasy World.

The proprietor Justin Heaven (yes that is his true name!!) and his mother Julie, have travelled into Europe and America to find the best quality and priced costumes available.

The latest ‘best finds’ are some wonderful Rhinstoned Elvis suits from L.A. and platform boots with a goldfish in the heels from California. We have also just brought in some hand painted eyemasks from Vienna ideal for your next masquerade ball!

We stock hundreds of styles of wigs and a complete range of ‘extras’, beards, guns, eyelashes etc. We are stockists of Grimas and Snazeroo make-up.
