Frequently asked questions

What to check before buying or renting a costume.

Which accessories come with the costume?

Read Included pieces on the costume page. If you need a cap, gloves, shoes or another accessory, add it to your inquiry so the studio can confirm what is available.

How do you describe condition?

Each listing has a condition note. Ask for current photos of cuffs, seams and fastenings if wear will matter in close-up or during a long run.

Is this vintage or vintage-inspired?

Vintage identifies an older garment with documented age or provenance. Vintage-inspired identifies a later garment based on an older design. These four sample listings are vintage-inspired.

How can I check price and availability?

Choose the costume, select Purchase or Rental, and send an inquiry. The studio confirms price and availability by email.

Which dates should I include for a rental?

Include the performance or run dates, any rehearsal that needs the costume, and when you can return it. The studio will confirm the rental period and terms by email.

Can I collect a costume or have it delivered?

Tell us your location and when you need the costume. The studio will confirm collection or delivery options, timing and any charges by email.
