In Short
Look past the 1987-era decor and you'll find one of the largest costume selections in the Northwest: Brocklind's stocks about 10,000 disguises, including some originals from early in the century, a few dill pickles and several bumble bees. Costumes are for rental only, while formal wear is available for rental or sale. While the bridal wear has never strolled down the catwalk in Milan, it is reasonably priced.


Key Points

The Inside Scoop

Nice staff, good selection of wierd costumes

by Sara G. | insider_expert Insider Expert | Rank: 2,062

I've only been in here twice (for past two Halloweens), and have had a good experience both times. Even though it was super busy when I visted this store, I was able to come up with Halloween costumes cheaply at the last minute at this place. From what i could see, they have a great selection of full costumes you can rent, that run the gammut of animals (I saw a horse) to clowns to pirates. They also have little neat things like face paint, fake mustaches, wigs and weird glasses. I also love that I don't have to walk down to Queen Anne to the other costume shop, I can just go to nearby Capitol Hill. Oh, and staff is really really nice!

PROS: Nice staff, eclectic selection of costumes and small notions.
CONS: No complaints.

Helped make my wedding perfect!

by ready2wed

My friend got a really cute Halloween outfit at Brocklinds and told me that the staff was really helpful and they also had tux rentals and wedding dresses. So, when I started looking around for a wedding dress I stopped by Brocklinds. The people in the bridal area helped me choose a dress I was really happy with and I even got my bridesmaids dresses there. They did all the alterations and made sure I was completely happy with my dress! I have heard horror stories about other places and was very happy that everything went smoothly for me at Brocklinds! My wedding was beautiful!
