New costume ideas are welcome.
If you have a costume in mind please click madetoorder@bigpond.com
This is a custom-made shop, so anything you see can be made in a different colour most of the time.
A costume will not date. A costume will be worn more than once. So why not make a wise investment on a quality wash and wear costume from ET Costumes.
Standard costumes for Adults will start from $140
For children will start from $70
When making costumes from the planning board:
(1) Research is necessary - from the internet,dvds, books, etc
(2) A pattern has to be drafted - to work out how much fabric will be necessary
(3) Suitable fabric has to be resourced (took me 10 months to complete Tia Dalma)
Fabrics have to be wash and wear, affordable and the right texture, colour, etc
(4) Then I aim to get the finished product 100% right the first time.
(5) A commission made costume will take approximately 4 weeks.
Sorry I can't do all this for $50.00. If you pay under $100.00 for a costume, you are buying less than satisfactory quality. My costumes are better than any of the very cheaply made globally manufactured fashion of today.
I sell you costumes at rack prices, not at seamstress's rates.
