Skirts commonly have an elastic back waistband for a flexible fit. Jackets often use decorative (non‑functional) buttons and are designed to be worn open. Sweater-style tops or sweater-front panels are sometimes included and may have functional buttons at the front.
Common decorative touches include large fashion safety pins and chains, (printed or real) kilt pins, decorative buttons, faux pockets, and knife pleats on the skirt front.
Listings frequently note that thigh‑high stockings and some white shirts or additional stockings are sold separately and are not included in the costume set.
Several listings are marked “Officially licensed.” Theme labels shown in product details include “TV Movie” and a broad period label listed as “1920's‑1980's.”
Color variants noted in listings include Yellow/Black/White and Red/Black; some descriptions explicitly reference a yellow plaid ensemble.
