Both options are common. Some costumes are one-piece hooded jumpsuits styled like a tunic over leggings, while others are multi-piece sets with a separate jacket/top and pants.

Footwear treatments vary. Some costumes include slip-on booties with faux-leather soles; others provide bootcovers or foam-backed shoe covers that secure with elastic or hook-and-loop fasteners under the foot.

Common materials include polyester (often 100%), brushed flannel or stretch knit, soft velour, faux-leather trim, and foam-backed components used for structured details.

Closures include front snaps, hook-and-loop fasteners (often down the back), and back zippers on some styles; additional fastenings include plastic slide belt buckles and elastic at the wrists, ankles, and waist.

Typical decorative details include jester-style collars, peppermint-style printed or painted buttons, pompoms on hats and shoe tips, appliquéd straps, bow ties with candy-style buttons, pointed ears on hats, and occasional faux-fur trim.

Foam-backed elements add structure and decoration—for example, foam-backed hats, mittens, and shoe covers; foam-backed buckles on sewn belts; and circular foam buttons used as decorative “candy” buttons.
