The story of Costume Craze began in 2001 as Matthew's Robes. Founder Matthew Maloney began selling monk robes online. But it wasn't long until "monk robes" grew into something much, much more. Today the company is called Costume Craze, and while we still sell those original monk robes (and proudly so), they also carry thousands of other costumes and accessories all year round! With help from co-founders Kathleen and Kate Maloney, as well as a dedicated team of enthusiastic employees, what started as a home based business by Matthew is now – and within just a few short years – one of the world's largest online costume retailers. Of course, with this growth comes great responsibility . . . especially to thier many customers throughout the world. Our mission is to provide you – thier valued customers – with exceptional service, unbeatable prices, and they hope one of the all around best experiences you've ever had shopping online.
