CONCERT COSTUMES
For the annual end of year concert each student will perform wearing a costume/s supplied by our dressmaker Kim Pemberton. There are 2 options with our costumes: Material kit or Sewn.
When a “Material Kit” is purchased all materials cut to size which are needed to construct the outfit/s. instructions are Included in the kit (no cottons are included). It is recommended that you be a confident sewer, as we often use tuelle, Lycra and disco sequined fabrics.
When a “Sewn” costume is purchased there is nothing you need to do to it. No added sequins, No hems, everything is done!
On average Material kits cost $30 each costume, on average Sewn Costumes cost $60 per costume.
Accounts will be given out and parents will have approx 2 months to pay for the costumes in full (whichever the option –kit or sewn). You can pay off the costumes like a lay-by system or in full by cash or cheque. Our costumes are priced on a bulk rate. If you change your mind and want the dressmaker to sew your child’s costume/s a late fee will be charged.
Jazz Ballet students will have 2 costumes each. Tap students will have 1 costume each.
COSTUME CARE- don’t let the children play around in their costumes, close all Velcro tabs and press studs, do not IRON or WASH anything unless Kim or Myself says it is ok. (As disasters have occurred in the past where some fabrics are discontinued). Any hesitations? Then don’t do it!! Ring and find out! If there is a problem… just ring me and we will sort something out.
