Considering how expensive and time-consuming these costumes are, it's pretty funny how often this happens. They're usually not intended to be used only once, but that's just how it goes sometimes.

So the conclusion seems to be that costumes are like disposable diapers. You get the most good from them the first time you wear them.

... Do I WANT to know why you're reusing disposable diapers at ALL?

And this is not to say that ALL costumes are one-shots. It just ends up happening a lot.

I imagine that many people find the challenge of making the costume more interesting than actually wearing it and look forward to the next. You've made it, you've worn it, time to move on.My sister-in-law Pounce (nickname) is a master at making ceremonial regalia and teaching others but she is not very fond of wearing it.

I remember visiting my grandmother when I was very young and she had us wear traditional Cherokee clothes. All of the tucking, tying and folding seemed to take forever when you have the hands of a little kid.
