I ordered my Aerith costume rather late (less than 2 months before my local anime convention) and it got here in just over 2 weeks! I ordered it on Feb. 28th, and it arrived on March 16th. I did pay for express shipping, but that is still insanely fast, especially since much of the world is still experiencing shipping delays due to the pandemic.
The construction of the dress and jacket is impressive. I do need to tailor the dress a bit since I was between sizes, so I bought the larger size. Having said that, the costume came so quickly I should have no trouble getting it adjusted before my even in April.
The accessories (bracelets, hair tie, and necklaces) are a bit of a mixed bag. The bracelets have a good weight to them, and are fairly attractive. The hair tie is a smallish square, so I don't think I'll be able to tie it over my ponytail, but I think if I tie it to a hair elastic, it should work. The necklace is a bit of a disappointment. It does look exactly like the pictures, but it's a bit finicky to put on and take off. (You basically need to slide the flower off, wrap the cord around your neck, and then slide the flower back on.) The cord is pretty cheap-looking, but given that it's the only "bad" part of the costume, overall the value is pretty good. (I didn't order shoes, so I can't give feedback about those.)
