What we offer

Costume Services

Whether you are planning a full production or need one gown mended before Friday, we bring design, craftsmanship, and organization to every stage of the costume's life.

Costume Design & Creation

From research and sketches to the final stitch — costumes that move, last, and tell each character's story.

We research the period and world of the show, sketch and plan each look, choose fabrics, and build costumes designed to hold up through quick changes, dancing, and night after night of performances.

Costume Sourcing & Coordination

Pulling, borrowing, buying, and coordinating pieces so every character is complete.

Not every costume needs to be built from scratch. We pull from existing stock, coordinate borrowing between organizations, shop thoughtfully, and keep track of every piece so nothing goes missing between rehearsal and strike.

Alterations & Repairs

Taking in, letting out, mending, and reshaping — so every performer feels confident on stage.

Hems, seams, zippers, closures, and last-minute fixes before the next cue. We fit garments to each performer and repair costumes so they are ready for the next production.

Costume Organization & Inventory

Cataloguing, labeling, and storing costumes so they can be found and loved again.

We photograph and catalogue costumes, add QR-code labels, organize racks, shelves, and bins, and set up simple check-out records — preserving your collection for future productions.

Production Costume Planning

Costume plots, budgets, timelines, and fittings planned around your show.

We work with directors and production teams to build costume plots by character and scene, plan budgets and materials, schedule fittings, and keep deadlines on track from first rehearsal to opening night.

Sewing Education & Collaboration

Teaching students and volunteers to thread a machine, read a pattern, and bring ideas to life.

We love sharing skills: sewing basics, hand-finishing, patterns, and costume construction for students, volunteers, and fellow creatives — plus collaborating with other theatres and artists.
