Frequently asked questions
Start here if you are planning a fitting, a hire or a handover.
How do I measure for fit?
Use a soft tape over the layers you plan to wear. Measure your chest, natural waist and hips. If you’re considering a coat, also measure shoulder width and sleeve length. Send your measurements and mention any movement you need for the performance so we can discuss room in the garment.
Which accessories come with a costume?
Check the Included pieces field and ask about specific pieces such as a collar, hat or belt. We’ll confirm exactly what comes with the costume by email.
Which dates should I give for a rental?
Include your performance dates, your first fitting if you know it, and the date you can return the costume. We’ll confirm availability, the rental period, price and any deposit by email.
How should I care for the garment?
Ask for instructions for the specific costume. Hang or store it as advised, and check with us before washing, steaming, pressing or making adjustments.
Can I collect the costume or arrange delivery?
Include your town or postcode and when you need the costume. We’ll confirm the available delivery or collection arrangements, charges, and any return instructions by email.
