Deluxe Willy Wonka Costume | Movie Costumes

The Candy ManThere's no doubt about it: sugar needs a new publicist. You can't turn your head today without hearing about how sugar causes a whole bunch of issues. "The Legal Drug," one headline reads. "Sugar is Poison," states another. So what is a sugar-loving, candyholic like you to do in the face of all this mounting evidence against your favorite sweet substance?Why, harken back to a simpler time when candy was king and don this Deluxe Men's Willy Wonka Costume! It's an easy way to get a dose of sweet without all the "supposed" side effects of sugar. Willy Wonka knew how to make a great chocolate bar; heck, he even invented the Everlasting Gobstopper (thanks, Willy)! He had geese that could lay golden eggs, and he could fulfill your lifelong dream of flying, simply by sipping on Fizzy Lifting Drink. Clearly, the guy was magic. So slip this on and start reinventing the industry, making sugar-free candy that actually tastes good; you could revitalize a whole lost generation!Fun DetailsThis classic costume features Wonka's signaturejacket with an attached vest front, golden bow tie, and white collar. The molded hat has decorative ribbon on its brim, and you can tip it to passersby as they tell you longing tales of sipping milkshakes as kids, or saving up for trips to the candy store. Ah...the nostalgia! This look is officially licensed and needs only a curly wig and a killer new (sugar-free) recipe to get you ready to take over the factory and start saving sweets for the public again!It's All About ModerationSo while we can no longer advocate jumping into a chocolate river (believe us, we used to push pretty hard for that), we still have a sweet tooth, and obviously so do you. Everything in moderation. Try this costume on for size and see how inventive you can get. Poor sugar, we will miss it. But just think of the amazing concoctions you can come up with now!.
