Pricing
WC is ready to help you create a stunning original and custom Couture Costume.
This process includes the design & guidance, mock-up, fitting and creation of your completely personal and custom Couture Costume. Using beautiful exterior fibers and hand applied embellishments, it is our pleasure to help you create a stunning one of a kind costume worthy of turning heads. Custom Couture Costume Budgets start at $1,600 for unadorned basic silhouettes and fabrics, $2,800 with laces and crystal embellishments.
When you are ready to proceed you may submit the form on the Begin a Consultation page.
Timeline
It is recommended that you begin your email consultation 16-20 months or more in advance.
Once your consult submission is received a response will be made within a couple days regarding your measurements and options along with answers to any questions you may have in order to create a sketch of the design. At this time you may attach pictures or inspirations for your concept to help build an idea of your style and preferences.
Once your costume has been sketched and finalized a non-refundable deposit of 50% is then due, this deposit must be made no later than 13 months prior to your due date.
Next, a mockup will be made of your necessary pieces to be sent out through the mail for fitting. This is a rough draft version of the piece(s) to check the fit. Multiple mockups may be sent when necessary to provide the option to alter fit or style within reason.
4 months before the due date you will be required to pay the additional 50% of the total cost.
As the process of creating your costume progresses you will be contacted as needed.
