Costume maker??

[glitzybabes]

Does anyone know if any custom costume makers? I have looked online and have had no luck. I was looking for someone to make a cheap Lillian Gracey costume from the haunted mansion for my dd11, Really just the dress. I was going to paint the flowers on myself. Here is a picture of Lillian.

There are some people on the Disboutique Thread on the Family Board that do make dresses.

OP: what a fabulous dress! I'd love to see a pix when you get that! I have seen others post that they had someone on DIS that made it for them...Good Luck!

i'd look into some one that make southern belle style dresses since that's what it is. Or historical/colonial dresses. That way you get the puffy shoulders and tuled skirt. Look in the southern states fdor it.
Some people are better at certain patterns and probably wouldn't just be a costume maker in general.

I got a bussiness card from some one at a Party night. I loved the dresses they were wearing and told me they do it for a living. I think they were from georgia or alabama.

I'd look on Etsy ~ you might not find one right away, but you could find a seamstress who you think could do it by seeing what she currently offers - contact her, send her the picture and ask if she'd be willing to give it a go.

I've dealt with this DISer in the past for a dress for my DD and she was great!

ETA ~ great idea - my Lilly might need to be Lillian G. sometime!
