If your Halloween costume doesn't fit, try simple modifications. For a tight fit, look for places where you can add fabric panels or use safety pins for a discreet expansion. If it's too loose, consider using a belt to cinch the waist or strategically placed safety pins for a better fit. Accessorizing creatively can also distract from minor fit issues. When alterations seem too complex, exchanging the costume for a better size or selecting a new one might be more practical.
