Fancy Dress and Costume Hire in the United Arab Emirates

Fancy dress hire in the United Arab Emirates is quoted per job, so the price depends on the costume, its size and the rental period. Theme costumes sold online in the UAE range from about AED 5 to AED 576, which gives a rough sense of what a costume is worth, but hire is priced separately. Send the details in a request on BlaBlaPrice to get current offers from sellers in your area.

What the price depends on

  • The costume itself: the character or theme, and whether it is a theme costume or a party outfit.
  • The wearer: age and height in centimetres, since kids' sizes follow age and adult sizes follow height.
  • Accessories such as wigs, shoes or props, and whether they are included.
  • The number of costumes and the rental dates, including short-term or long-term hire.
  • Delivery or collection in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman or Al Ain, and any stitching or alterations.

Licence and rules for costume rental

Snippets describe a costume, shoes and personal items rental business in Dubai under activity code 7729.90, so a rental firm should be able to show a licence for that activity. A trade licence in Dubai comes from the Department of Economic Development (DET) or from a free zone, and costs from about AED 12,000 a year in fees. Ask the rental firm for its licence details before you pay a deposit.

Season and climate

Halloween falls at the end of October, and many fancy dress listings in this search are for Halloween parties and school events. Summers are very hot from May to September, so heavy or fully lined costumes are uncomfortable outdoors then. The mild months from November to March suit parades and outdoor parties, and breathable fabrics and masks are worth asking for in the hot months.

How hire works in the UAE

Costume hire in Dubai is offered by shops in areas such as Karama, Al Barsha, Jumeirah, International City and the Mall of Emirates area. Some rental services take online bookings, while some luxury dress rentals work by appointment only. Many offer short-term and long-term rental, so tell sellers how many days you need. Kids' sizes are given by age and height, so measure the child in centimetres before you order.

BlaBlaPrice is free for buyers. Describe the costume in your own words in the chat, and add a photo if you have one. The AI asks about anything missing, then looks through sellers' websites and price lists in the UAE and shows the prices and businesses it finds. Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice reply with their own offer, terms and delivery, and your contact details stay hidden until you choose whom to share them with.
