Fifty Years of Costume Excellence

Chicago, IL, October 19, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Halloween is fast approaching, and a Chicago institution is coming up on a business milestone – 50 years of providing costumes and accessories. Fantasy Costumes, in the “Six Corners” shopping district on the northwest side, started out in the 1960's as a wig shop, and kept growing to be one of the largest costume shops in the world, featuring an unbeatable selection.

Proprietor George Garcia estimates that they currently have over a million items in stock at their block-long “superstore” location, with a wide array of wigs, makeup, costumes, accessories, and decorations. He notes that they carry products on all levels, from basic kids' Halloween outfits to professional quality makeup that is frequently sold to movie and TV productions filming in the city. The store's staff are experts in their product lines, and are a great resource to help plan anybody's costume. Also, with a half-century of experience in wigs, they are the ideal place for getting that specific cosplay or anime look, or having one of your existing wigs re-styled for your current needs.

To celebrate their 50th year in business, Fantasy Costumes is featuring a sale of 20-50% off on many products throughout their sprawling store. In addition, there will be celebrity appearances, and other special events leading up to Halloween.

The store's location at 4065 N. Milwaukee Ave., is convenient to the Kennedy expressway and several CTA routes, and will be open 24 hours a day in the week leading up to October 31st (and until 10pm most days before that).
