World War II Evacuee Boy Costume

World War II Evacuee Boy Costume, Coat, Trousers, Hat and Bag

In this World War II Evacuee Boy Costume, you can bring history back to life! Dressing up is fun, and in this outfit, your little boy can let his imagination run wild as he imagines life as a schoolboy during the war. The costume includes a long-sleeved jacket and knee-length short trousers in green, a school-style cap in blue, and a leather-effect satchel. The jacket has button detailing at the front and two pockets that are perfect for storing little 'treasures' and gobstoppers in. The short trousers have an elasticated waist for ease of movement, and the peaked cap helps to create a 'Sunday best' look. The Velcro-fastening satchel is worn diagonally from the shoulder in a ready to travel style, and the included ID tag on the jacket lapel adds to the authentic evacuee look. Would it have been exciting to be boarding a train to go live in the countryside with people you didn't know, or would it have been heart-breaking to leave your home and parents behind? Lots to think about, but also lots of fun to be had in a costume that gives you an instant character image, but is comfy enough to be yourself in all party long. (Socks and shoes not included).
