For many people, fairy wings for a costume are some of the most beautiful aspects of any costume or accessories for any occasion. This has caused a great demand and there are many companies that offer various colors and styles of fairy wings; some are custom orders and other are mass produced. However, there are some very important aspects of buying fairy wings that should be looked at before you place your order.

Because of the higher demand for fairy wings around Halloween, there are many companies that produce sets of wings that are designed to only last a little while. These wings are created using thinner materials and aren’t really suitable for more than a few uses. Nevertheless, these are a great option for someone who wants to have several sets of fairy wings to wear at various times or for someone who is going to only use them for onetime events like Halloween or weddings.

Also, sizing is an important aspect. Many custom fairy wing makers can design wings that are perfectly proportioned to the wearer’s body and can look spectacular. On the other hand, many out of the box wings are designed for smaller people (i.e. children and petite women). The ideal sizing for fairy wings is between the top of the neck at their highest point and the just a few inches past the waist as this size will offer a more real appearance.
