Performance & Competition Costumes — Designed for Every Performer
From streamlined, budget-friendly designs to Elite Couture bespoke creations, I handcraft custom costumes for performers of all kinds — including custom figure skating dresses, dance competition costumes, and more — whether you compete, perform, or simply want to shine with confidence.
I offer four tiers of handmade costumes, each built with high-quality materials, professional techniques, and a focus on comfort, performance, and style.
Scroll down to explore each tier, compare what’s included, and find the option that best fits your design vision, performance needs, and timeline.
💡 Not sure which tier is right for you?
You don’t have to figure it out alone — I’ll guide you through the options and help you find the tier that strikes the right balance of design, fit, and cost. Together, we’ll create a costume that feels amazing to wear, moves beautifully, and gives you the confidence to shine on the ice or stage.
Character or Theme Costumes: Character-inspired designs can be created in any tier. Complexity and likeness determine the appropriate tier. Designs are inspired — not exact replicas — to respect copyright.
Don’t see exactly what you’re looking for? Let’s talk — I can tailor my services to your unique goals.
