REALISTIC COSTUMES, HIGH QUALITY GREAT PRICES

by leonardo22 at Citysearch

I FORGOT ABOUT BRUNA COSTUMES. MY MOM USE TO GO THERE FOR HER HALLOWEEN COSTUMES AND COSTUMES FOR MY BIRTHDAY PARTIES. I REMEMBER BIG BIRD COMING TO MY PARTY AND I HAVE THE PICTURES TO PROVE IT. MY MOM ALWAYS SAID THAT THEY HAD THE BEST COSTUMES. SHE WENT TO HIGH SCHOOL WITH THE OWNER AND MOM SAYS SHE WAS VERY TALENTED. SHE MADE ALL HER OWN CLOTHES. I HEARD THAT SHE MAKES ALL THE COSTUMES AND EVEN HAS HER OWN LINE.

I WENT THERE YESTERDAY TO GET AN IDEA WHAT I WANTED TO BE . I WAS TOTALLY CONFUSED. EVERYTHING LOOKS GREAT THE COSTUMES ARE INCREDIBLE.MAYBE I'LL SEE YOU THERE.

Hi

My name is Cindy. Thanks for the information. I belong to a historical society and all the women have gowns. I had no idea where I would go to get a historic gown made? I went to Bruna Costumes on Sat and saw the beautiful historic gowns that they make there. They even make the hats to match. They are really not that expensive at all. I am having a beautiful wine colored victorian gown madel Thanks so much for the comment. They are very nice there .

fabulous Costumes and Great prices

by angelicaguy23 at Citysearch

Every costume is unique because they design their own costumes there. I first heard of this place on you tube and was awed by the way the bunny handled the news media . It was pure genius.

I live in Norton Mass but I come down just to go to Bruna costumes. The wigs are great and the prices are so reasonable. I am going to 'burning man' in Nevada and Bruna has lots of ideas for the festival.

They are really cool people and know about all the parties and festivals.

• Pros: Best costumes in Rhode Island
• Cons: I live in Mass

The Best prices and the best costumes for your money

by snowballllane48 at Citysearch

I have been dressing up for costume parties for many of my 20's and 30's. I live in Seekonk and been going to places around here and to Boston as well. I work at the Westin Hotel and went to Bruna ;s to pick up some Wizard of Oz costumes. I know that the westin must have paid big bucks for costumes at Bruna, but when I signed the receipt, I saw that 4 costumes came to only

160.00. I paid more than that for 2 costumes in Boston.

And the costumes were outstanding. I was totally amazed. I always thought that Bruna was the most expensive because the costumes were professional.

Surprise surprise. This is my place to get costumes from now on. I have been paying through the nose at other places And the people there are so nice. You can tell they love what they are doing.

• Pros: great customer service
• Cons: They should advertise more

Anime convention Here I come

by anwarsedat at Citysearch

I am excited that I have my dress for the anime festival in Boston. Last year the convention was in March and I ended up getting a wig at the show . I later found out about Bruna. They have a great selection of cosplay wigs and costumes. They are a lot cheaper at Bruna's then at the convention.

• Pros: Great Anime cosplay costumes and accessories
• Cons: I live an hour away in Boston

Great video of the bunny on you tube.

by generalchickenfoo at Citysearch

I found this place on you tube. I am also going to the anime festival in Boston in May and took a swing by Bruna's. I live in Boston and there is only one large costume store there. Bruna has a lot of unique costumes and you can tell they are professional.. They look like the real thing. I especially liked the gladiater costumes. They make them their so you don't have to worry about running into someone with the same costume.

The prices are about half of what they would cost in Boston.

• Pros: Great store
• Cons: Too far from my ;hometown

Japanese animation costumes

by brandylionchick at Citysearch

Its about the time of the year for the Boston Anime Festival. I look forward to it every year. I am so siked.

I am wearing a cosplay dress that Bruna made for me.

I showed up early this year so she was able to get it finished in time. Actually , its a long gown made out of polished cotton , beige backround and tiny flowers.

I picked out ther fabric which made it more exciting.

The little hat is to die for. I only paid 350.00 which is not bad at all. You got to see it. Its spectacular.

See you at the convention in May.

Yes, I also have a matching parasol

• Pros: Awesome unique shop
• Cons: not close enough to home

Special customer service

by angellina at Citysearch

I work at applebees in norton and I forgot to order an Easter Bunny costume. It was 2 days before Easter and my manager would have been really upset.

Now only did Bruna make a special one for me at the last minute, it was brown but who cares. They also delivered it and picked it up.

Great customer service. like no other

• Pros: Great bunny costumes great service
• Cons: none

Haz Costumes but so do other places.

by murphgurf at Citysearch

The owner is BSC. But, this place is famous now I guess. Good costumes though, some possible copyright infringement via character usage. But, I'm no lawyer so I won't pass judgement. look up I-Team: Costume-shop owner accused of cyberstalking on youtube if you want a visual.

• Pros: Costumes? Crazy owner?
• Cons: See Above

A Fun Safe place for a man buying woman's clothing

by bradjolina at Citysearch

If you are looking for a discrete place to purchase your unmentionables, try Bruna Costumes on Pocasset Ave in Prov.R.I. I use to go to miko to purchase gloves and boots and stuff but they closed. Bruna is openminded and welcomes cross dressers or anybody else. They have everything you would need there from a great selection of thigh hi's to real nice womans' wigs to shoes and boots. Although they don't have a great selection of shoes in large sizes, they have lots of boots.

I purchased a corset there that was really nicely made. They make beautiful corseted gowns that Marie Antonette would wear.

Very easy to find and comfortable to shop there.

• Pros: they cater to exotic dancers and cross dressers
• Cons: not open evenings except by appointment

Greatest Santa Costumes original designs

by cartonhelmet at Citysearch

I went to check out the Santa suits made by Bruna Costumes. This shop is unique due to the fact that you can only buy or rent these costumes from 'Bruna Costumes' because they are the only one who makes them. They are so much better than the store bought suits that everyone else had. The quality is superior and the costs are affordable.

• Pros: Original santa suits
• Cons: none that I can think of

Biblical costumes for my church

by bridgettalou at Citysearch

I needed biblical costumes for a crucifixion reinactment at church. I didn't find anything in R.I. where I am from. My pastor said he use to go to a place in pawtucket but it closed. I went on to google and typed in biblical costumes in R.I. and Bruna Costumes was the first name that came up.

I was surprised at the great selection and the willingness on the part of the sales clerk to come up with ideas on characters. She even went on the internet to check what the biblical character wore. I was especially pleased with the prices. I rented 5 costumes for less than it would cost to make them.

• Pros: great selection of biblical costumes
• Cons: not open enough hours
