Melissa & Doug Pirate Role Play Costume Set‍

Melissa & Doug are well-known for producing beautiful, well-designed children's products, and this pirate costume is no exception. Though the price is a little higher than some of the other costumes on this list, it feels a lot better quality, made with more durable fabrics, well-executed design and lots of thoughtful details; we particularly like the embroidered vest.

Rubie's Little Lass Pirate Costume‍

This cute little red and black skirted costume is perfect for little girls (or boys, if they're so inclined!) with a penchant for all things pirate. The flowing skirt allows for freedom of movement and the pirate hat is everything a pirate hat should be. Sizes do run a little small so consider getting a size up if you want it to last.

Tu Stripy Pirate Costume‍

This three-piece pirate outfit is great for kids under 5. Handily, it has all the gear printed on the t-shirt rather than included as separate pieces, meaning there's less to lose and no sharp accessories or attachments to cause injury to younger kids. The outfit is cute, comfortable and easy to put on and take off. Though we think boys look great in it it's completely gender-neutral, so there's nothing to stop your little girl enjoying it, too! Smaller sizes would also make for a great toddler pirate costume.

This fun pirate dress is a great option for girls under 10. It's easy to pull on and the puffed sleeves, double-layered skirt and metallic detailing make for a beautifully-designed pirate costume perfect for a Halloween or fancy dress party. It's machine washable, too.

Tu Blue Pirate Costume‍

This two-piece pirate costume has many more intricate design features than your basic stripes. Boasting red frills, gold fringing, a glittery belt and a skull and crossbones print motif, it's a more interesting design that a lot of the other costumes on the market. Starting at £12, it's great value, too.

Rubie's Official Children's Raggy Pirate Costume‍

Halloween can get expensive; the sweets, the costumes, the decorations and props all add up, and often kids will only get one or two uses out of your annual purchases.  If you're looking for a costume that looks the part but won't cost you an arm and a leg, this three-piece pirate outfit is a good way to go. It includes a raggedy shirt with waistcoat and belt, black and red striped trousers and a cool striped bandana with a skull and crossbones emblem, all for under a tenner.
