MorphCostumes Awards

Recognised for innovation, growth, and the odd inflatable.

Since the first Morphsuit in 2009, we have set out to make the most exciting costumes around and to look after the people who buy them. Along the way, the work has been recognised by the costume industry, by the business press, and by the people who rank Britain's fastest-growing companies.

We are proud to have been shortlisted for some of these and to have taken a few home. Below are the key awards that Morphsuits, MorphCostumes, and Digital Dudz have received, with the most recent first.

Our press coverage has its own page: MorphCostumes in the Press.
