I can’t recommend Harveys of Hove enough. I literally had an appointment to fit me with an RAF uniform with Wayne and Lorna 2 days before Goodwood Revival. What a pleasure these 2 people are. Fantastic knowledge of costumes and an incredible eye for detail. They took so much time to make sure my outfit looked authentic, smart and perfectly fitted. So much so that Wayne sewed on a couple of extra buttons and “wings” to make me look like an absolutely authentic RAF Flight Lieutenant. If you’re thinking of dressing up for a party/festival or need costumes for a show, you must come here. Really made our day at Goodwood Revival so much more fun. Thank you so much Wayne and Lorna. I’ll be seeing you again for sure!

For Theatrical or Historical performance costume this is the place to go. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly and very willing to help in any way they can. Very happy with the Peaky Blinders kit they supplied for our photo shoot.

Very pleased with the service, time and effort Wayne and Lorna put into my appointment. They made me feel very welcome and nothing was to much to find the perfect costume for me. I picked a lovely costume for a Party which got me a lot of comments and likes. Thank you guys for all you help! I will definitely use you again and recommend you to others. This is what service is all about time, care and to make you feel welcome. X

I visited Harvey’s of Hove with a request for a outfit for 1940s weekend. I have to say I was taken aback with how much variety they had there and also the attention to detail down to having the right cap badge, buttons and ribbons on jacket etc. Wayne and Lorna are absolutely wonderful people, for them it’s more of a passion rather than just a job When I was fitted out I certainly felt like an officer in the army. They are not the place for a cheap disposable fancy dress outfit, no they are more of a costumer, with period and vintage outfits. Would Recommend 100%

Wayne and Lorna are the owners of Harvey's of Hove costumers for theatrical people as well as the general public. It's a real aladdin's cave of costumes. If they haven't got it then no one has! They have so much knowledge and experience to find the right fit just for you. I have hired from them twice and each time the costume has been perfect. I'll never go anywhere else.

Wayne and Lorna are simply the nicest people you could hope to meet! I had left it very late to procure an outfit for The Goodwood Revival (like a few days before the event). From the first phone call, nothing was too much trouble. They fitted me into an exceptionally busy period for them and made sure that I had a uniform that I was happy with. They have a simply staggering array of costumes and uniforms and have a deep knowledge of period and military outfits and make sure that everything is just right. Do not come here expecting cheap fancy dress tat - this is the real deal and highly authentic. Wayne and Lorna are clearly passionate about what they do and demonstrate genuine care in addressing the needs of each and every customer. I cannot recommend them highly enough and I will definitely use them for many years to come!

Harveys of Hove - what a little GEM this really is. Wayne and Lorna most definitely know their stuff and finding an outfit for my 'Murder Mystery' hen do character was soooo easy with a selection of fantastic pirate jackets, belt and incredible hat. I would recommend 100% to anyone wishing to hire great quality costumes. Thank you x

Called on a Wednesday for a party on Saturday and despite being very busy with Goodwood, got an appointment that afternoon. Wayne took great care to ensure all details of the outfit were perfect and I stood out at the party in a fantastic Rear Admiral uniform in a sea of standard Amazon sailor outfits. Very reasonably priced too. Highly recommend.

With up to 20 shows a year, Lancing College has been using Harvey's of Hove for many years helping us cover a wide diversity of shows from Big Musicals such as My Fair Lady & Anything Goes to period drama's such as Journeys End. I can't say enough good things about this company, their dedication to getting it just right and going the extra mile is legendary. Thank you Wayne & Lorna.

After the devastating effects of covid on amateur theatre and costume companies it was so wonderful to find Wayne is still open for business. As ever Wayne provided a great service and the perfect Guardsman costume for Private Willis (Iolanthe) was delivered in good time for the Dress Rehearsal. Thank you so very much.
