Ho, Ho, Ho! There's nothing quite like the joy of seeing a real-life Santa stroll into the room, sack slung over his shoulder and beard billowing, to brighten the spirits of kids and adults alike. Whether Christmas morning at home, a local street party, or a workplace function, dressing up as Santa isn't just a bit of festive fun - it's a timeless tradition that turns a simple celebration into a magical, memorable experience. If you're planning a family, school or club gathering, or just want to add a sprinkle of enchantment to your home, bringing Santa to life with a complete costume is one of the most compelling ways to make Christmas feel extra special. Wherever Santa appears, joy follows - and it all starts with the right suit.
What is a Santa Suit?
A Santa suit is more than just red and white fabric - it's the uniform of a Christmas icon. Our Father Christmas costume and accessories are designed to create the full effect, with rich red jackets trimmed in plush white faux fur, matching trousers with an elastic waist for comfort, and the signature Santa hat. These suits come in a generous one-size-fits-most design, accommodating most Santas up to 3XL, making them perfect for nearly any festive helper.
Each complete Santa Claus costume is crafted for both style and comfort, ideal for novelty Santa appearances at home, social events, community parties, or even for the workplace Kris Kringle. Reusable with gentle hand washing and air drying, these suits offer a timeless solution that can be worn year after year. Whether you're suiting up for your kids on Christmas morning or leading a holiday parade, the suit is your first step into character.
What Accessories Can Be Used With a Santa Suit?
No Santa look is complete without the extras that turn a costume into a character. Key accessories include the classic white wig and beard set, which attaches comfortably with elastic bands and can be gently detangled and stored away for next year. A black belt with a gold buckle, plush boot covers, and old-fashioned round glasses add distinctive touches of realism. To finish the look, you can also add a belly stuffer (for those without Santa's natural roundness), a traditional Santa sack filled with goodies, and even a functioning Santa bell to really capture attention.
While our curated Santa suit includes the essentials like beard, wig, hat etc, individual accessories such as glasses, belly stuffers and Santa sacks - can also be purchased separately. This allows you to replace or upgrade individual components or share the magic with fellow helpers. Shop online for the best deals, with next business day dispatch available for delivery Australia-wide, or pop into your local store to find the perfect Christmas costume for adults.
How to Prepare Role-playing Santa Claus?
Dressing the part is only half the fun - the true magic of Santa comes from playing the role. Get into character with a hearty laugh, a warm smile, and a bit of jolly charm. Practise your "Ho, Ho, Ho!", memorise the names of the reindeer, and rehearse cheerful one-liners for kids. Keep a simple naughty and nice list on hand - it's a brilliant way to spark interaction and keep the illusion alive.
Add your own flair with boots that echo across the floor, a bell that jingles through the air, and a sack that seems full of secrets. Whether you're handing out lollies, small gifts, or just smiles, the joy on children's faces will be worth every moment. And remember, after your big appearance, store your beard and wig carefully, hang the suit to air, and keep your accessories tucked away for next year's Santa to use.
