Sizing and fit questions
What sizes does the Harbor Hottie sailor costume come in?
The standard Harbor Hottie costume is available in Small and Medium, both in a Multi color option. The plus size version is offered in 1X/2X, also in Multi. The catalog does not list measurements for these sizes, so check the size chart on the product page before ordering.
How does the plus size Harbor Hottie differ from the standard version?
The plus size version includes the same white long-sleeve sailor dress with red, white, and blueprint details, gold anchor appliques, and matching hat. The main difference is the size range: 1X/2X versus Small and Medium. Both are described as having long sleeves and the same design details.
Does the dress run true to size?
The product record does not provide a fit rating or garment measurements, so we cannot say whether it runs small, true, or large. Use the size chart and consider your preferred fit—if you want a looser look, you may size up, but that is a general suggestion, not a manufacturer instruction.
Is the costume stretchy or adjustable?
The catalog does not specify the fabric content or stretch. The dress is described as having long sleeves and a matching hat, but no information is given about elastic waistbands, ties, or other adjustable features. If fit is a concern, check the product page for additional details or customer reviews.

What’s included and what’s not
Are stockings included with the Harbor Hottie costume?
No. The product description explicitly states that stockings are not included. You will need to supply your own if you want to complete the look.
Does the costume include the hat?
Yes, both the standard and plus size versions include a matching hat. The hat is part of the set, as listed in the product details.
Is the dress a full dress or a top and skirt?
The description refers to a “white sailor dress,” so it is a single dress piece, not a separate top and skirt. The long sleeves are part of the dress.

Styling and wearing questions
How can I style the Harbor Hottie sailor costume?
The costume already includes the dress and hat, so you can keep it simple. Since stockings are not included, you can add your own tights or stockings in a color that complements the white dress and red/blue details. Footwear is not specified, but nautical-themed shoes or simple heels could work. The catalog does not provide styling suggestions, so these are general ideas.
Can I wear this costume for Halloween or a themed party?
Yes, it is designed as a costume. The sailor theme makes it suitable for nautical parties, Halloween, or other dress-up events. The product record does not list specific occasions, but it is marketed as a costume.
Is the dress appropriate for outdoor wear in cold weather?
The dress has long sleeves, but the fabric weight and warmth are not described. The catalog does not provide information on thermal performance. If you plan to wear it outdoors in cool weather, consider layering with additional clothing underneath or bringing a jacket, but note that layering may affect the fit.
Care and maintenance
How should I clean the Harbor Hottie sailor costume?
The product record does not include care instructions. We cannot recommend a specific washing method. Check the garment’s care label when it arrives, or look for updated information on the product page. As a general precaution, costumes with appliques and special details often benefit from gentle handling, but always follow the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can I iron the dress?
No ironing instructions are provided. The dress has gold anchor appliques and printed details, so ironing directly on those areas could cause damage. If you need to remove wrinkles, use a low setting and avoid the embellishments, but this is not a manufacturer instruction—proceed with caution.
