Every custom costume I create is individually curated and assembled by hand from start to finish — a one-of-a-kind piece made just for you.

The final price reflects several key parts:

Many of my designs begin with a carefully sourced vintage garment — such as a ball gown or formal dress — chosen for its craftsmanship, structure, and timeless elegance. Using these as the foundation not only elevates the quality and feel (avoiding a “costumey” look), but also saves hours of production time compared to building the same bones entirely from scratch.

From there, I add thoughtfully selected fabrics, trims, and embellishments. Rather than mass-produced or widely available decorations, I seek out unique, often one-of-a-kind elements to give each costume its own soul and story.

Every piece is reimagined to reflect YOUR desired inspiration. It is reshaped, refitted, and hand-embellished with precision. Pattern adjustments, sewing, structural reinforcement, and finishing details ensure that the costume is a wearable piece of art. My goal is to merge technical construction with artistic vision so that the final garment feels alive and made just for you.

Special accommodations to incorporate select items already in your personal collection can continue to add layers of character story.

If provided the latitude, I often seek out and work with a trusted network of talented makers who create bespoke accessories & specialty pieces. These artisan works - when integrated into the costume ensemble - add richness and authenticity and artistry that sets your piece apart.

Your commission also includes the unseen but vital creative work: design development, sourcing, fittings, and the vision to transform raw materials into a cohesive final look.

A typical custom piece price is derived by a balance between:

Materials & Sourcing

Skilled Labor

Creative Design, Artisan Collaborations, & Business Costs

This balance ensures your costume is made with high-end or vintage-quality materials, compensated craftsmanship, and the creative care of a small business that values artistry over mass production.

✨ End Result: You receive a unique, handcrafted costume that carries history, artistry, and imagination — made to last, made to enchant, and made exclusively for you. ✨
