the first thing that i noticed when i opened this item was the smell. it smelled HORRID, like vinegar, but worse. its very stiff, has almost zero movement to it, and doesnt even wrap around me. i know lots of costumes have a bit of an odor to them, but this one was so bad my cats refused to come close and my boyfriend was gagging. i had him hang it up in the other room to air out. if that doesnt take care of the smell, i may have to buy a spray for it.See full review
