Fancy Dress Outfitters Experience Increased Sales In The Lead Up To Valentine's Day

Online, January 18, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Valentine's Day is considered to be the most romantic day of the year. On this day people confess their love to those they've admired for a very long time, in the hope they will return it and the two of them can finally be together. Traditionally the day occupies men and women with buying chocolates and cards for one another or planning a weekend away. Now newer traditions see a change in how those in and out of relationships perceive and celebrate Valentine's Day.

Businesses such as clubs and pubs now hold themed nights for Valentine's Day, inviting people to come out dressed up in sexy outfits or love themed costumes to have a great time with their friends or meeting new people. This has turned Valentine's Day into a day everyone can enjoy, not only those in a relationship.

Fancy Dress Outfitters has experienced increased sales in the lead up to Valentine's Day, Customer Service Manager Jackie Munton commented, "Valentine's Day is the next big fancy dress event on the calendar. We've been receiving more online orders, emails and phone calls in the last couple of weeks for Valentine's Day costumes because everyone wants to make sure they get what they want for their Valentine's Day party. I've noticed that students, more than anyone else, are buying Valentine's Day costumes as they've got a wide range of themed parties and nights out to go to, and fancy dress has become a big part of them."

As a growing number businesses use Valentine's Day to bring more people into their premises, the day is becoming more about what goes on in the evening and at night, rather than how couples celebrate with each other.

Fancy Dress Outfitters is an online retailer of fancy dress costumes. They have a wide range of Valentine's Day outfits available for customers to purchase online, alongside their selection of costumes for other occasions such as St Patrick's Day and Halloween.
