Preview[edit | edit source]
Requiring level 42 Construction and 50,000 gold to build, the costume room exists to store armour sets and some clothes, instead of having the items take up space in their banks. The bank rework taster provided players with the ability to access the costume room via the banking interface. If a bank PIN has been set, all furniture requires the PIN to be able to view, add, or remove items. Only the owner of the house may add or remove items from the costume room, though visitors may view the collections. A costume room has one door, and one costume room may be built in a player-owned house.
Removing the costume room, or pieces of furniture in it, can be done while there are still items stored in them. Those items will not be lost, but you will not be able to access them until you build a new room and the relevant furniture is present. This includes access via the bank interface. If you wish to re-locate your costume room to another location in your home, you may do so by simply trying to build another costume room (in the location you wish for it to be moved). You will be prompted with a message asking if you would like to move your current costume room to that location. It will charge you the original cost of a costume room to re-locate it.
All items can be made as a flatpack. Thus, a better piece of storage furniture that requires a Construction level greater than the player's level to build can be bought from the Grand Exchange or from other players. Players can then build (install) the flatpack version of the furniture in their house even though they do not have the required level needed to create the furniture from raw materials.

Trivia[edit | edit source]
Many players used to utilize the costume room as a "hack-insurance" - something to fall back on if their account was hijacked temporarily and their items stolen. Assuming that the interlopers did not check the costume room (and the Miscellania and Etceteria kingdom management treasury), the player may have had something to fall back on even after their bank was emptied. However, after the bank rework taster the costume room is accessible from the banking interface.
