Ordering your dream costume does not have to be a daunting prospect.  We are here to take that worry away and make it an enjoyable experience.

One step closer

Getting Started

Ordering is a simple process in which we start by filling out an order form which we will email to you when you are ready to start. A non-refundable deposit of £300GBP is required to secure your spot and is payable by Visa/MasterCard.

Your order is not confirmed until the deposit had been charged.

How Much?

The cost of the costume is dependant on the dancers age and height.  You simply need to give us this information and we can give you a firm quote 

Added costs would include crystals which are dependant on the design of the costume and your budget. We can also send the costume without crystals. We also have Costume Bags available to purchase which can be personalised for an added fee. Shipping to the USA/Canada/Australia is £100 and UK/Ireland £40.

Consultation

We offer two ways of getting the information we need for your order.

One to one with Keith or a member of our design team where you would either come to our studio in Belfast and discuss your order in detail plus get measured or you can meet with Keith who also attends most major competitions throughout the year. 

If you live overseas we would carry out the whole process by email and telephone (if needed).  This is our most popular tried and tested method for our overseas customers.

Design

You have the choice of having as little or as much input in the design and look of the dress. We like people to send in examples of dresses they like. Drawings no matter how rough are always welcome. These give Keith a better idea of what kind of look you would like to go for plus creating something unique for the dancer.

While we welcome your input please take advantage of Keith’s wealth of experience and try not to limit your order or ideas too much. The only thing we do not accept are fully designed artwork as these can limit Keith’s creativity.

Once we have all of your design information and Measurements the order is passed to the Design team a design will then be created and emailed to you for your approval. We would ask that you reply with an answer within 24hours. If you would like your teacher included in the email please provide her email address on the Order Form. The design process takes place usually 1 week before an in-studio fitting or 3 weeks before a dress is to be shipped overseas.  Please be patient! It will be worth the wait.  The order will not be started until we have your approval.

Of course we expect to have slight changes to a design like more or less detail around the neckline or a change of colour but we cannot create multiple different designs for one order. Designs can take anything from 1 to 3 hours to create.

Once the design is approved we will move it onto the next stage of embroidery and then construction.

You will be sent a weekly update via Email.

How do I receive my costume?

In Studio Fitting

If you are available to visit our studio in Belfast you can come for a one on one fitting with one of our experienced seamstresses.  Fittings take a full day but you will be given breaks throughout the day to go sightseeing or shopping if you wish.  The dress is completed with Crystals all in one day. 

We have a very spacious comfortable fitting room which is yours for the duration of the day. 

Overseas Orders

If you live overseas we would carry out the whole process in our studio and construct the costume as per the measurements we either receive from you or if you have been measured by a member of our staff at a competition.

We ask for photographs of the measurements you take so we can see if you have measured incorrectly.  You will receive your costume wrapped safely in a secure box by courier.
