Consultation & Measurement:

After receiving your order, we’ll schedule a consultation to discuss your vision, the athlete’s needs, and the program requirements. I’ll take accurate in-person measurements at my studio, with measurements rechecked at the first fitting. We’ll also review any add-ons you’d like to include. To proceed, a signed statement of work and full payment are required. A payment plan is available, offering flexibility with a down payment upfront, a progress payment at the first fitting, and a final payment upon completion.

Design:

I will collaborate with you, the athlete, and their coach/teacher to create the design. I’ll present up to 3 sketches, and we’ll finalize the design, outlining the scope of work. Any design changes after approval may impact time and cost.

Patterning, Fabric Selection & Construction:

After approval, fabrics are selected from trusted suppliers. The design is transformed into a custom pattern and carefully sewn to fit the athlete’s body, ensuring a professional, competitive look.

Fittings & Embellishment Planning:

At the first fitting, final measurements are taken, and we will assess movement, fit, and comfort. Any alterations will be agreed upon, and embellishment plans will be finalized.

Final Touch Ups & Embellishments:

After the fitting, the final construction and embellishments will be added, turning the costume into a show-stopping piece.

Final Fitting & Pickup:

Once completed, we’ll schedule a final fitting. If you’re satisfied with the fit, the costume is yours! ​If needed, additional minor adjustments can be made free of charge within 1 week after pickup.
