Custom Design for Group Performances
Tired of trying to match a catalogue costume to your group’s vision? Discover the power of our custom-designed costumes, perfectly aligning with your group's performance vision. Embrace a world of endless possibilities as we bring your story to life on stage. Our passionate team of designers, craftspeople, sewers, and suppliers love what they do, infusing every creation with dedication and enthusiasm. Let us weave magic together, elevating your group's stage presence to new heights with captivating costumes that inspire and amaze.
Here’s how it works:
Step 1: The Vision
During our first meeting, we’ll discuss your vision for the routine we'll be creating costumes for. We'll explore the mood, colours, music tempo, and more. Feel free to bring any sketches or Pinterest inspiration—but please note, we won't copy anything directly. Together, we'll create a quick sketch, discuss fabric choices, consider the number of students in your group, and set production/delivery expectations.
Step 2: Deposit
If you wish to proceed, a $500 deposit is required to research, pattern, cut, and sew a sample of the costume. This deposit will be credited to your final invoice. If you decide not to proceed with costuming, 50% of the deposit will be refunded.
Step 3: Measurements
Next, we require a measurement chart to be completed for each dancer in your group and returned promptly to us. Alternatively, we can have a member of our staff attend a class to measure the dancers for a small fee. Note: the sample costume will be tailored for a specified group member.
Step 4: Sample Creation
Upon receiving the measurement chart for the group member you’ve selected as the sample tester, we will move forward with crafting the sample costume for your review and approval.
Step 5: Production
To initiate costume production within the required timeframe, a 50% deposit of the total order (plus HST) is necessary. Costumes will be completed as agreed upon and ready for pick-up or delivery via a delivery service.
Step 6: Fitting
We may suggest a fitting to ensure the best fit for certain styles, allowing for minor adjustments like strap length, if needed. Please note: any changes requested to the approved sample design will incur additional charges.
Step 7: Final Payment & Delivery
Payment in full for the remaining balance (excluding the initial deposit) is required before pick-up or delivery can be arranged. We accept e-transfer, credit card, or cash as payment options.
