COSTUME COLLECTION DAY & PAYMENT -SUNDAY 19th APRIL

10am-1pm

Costumes will be available to collect on this day.

If you are unable to collect on this day, please nominate someone else and pay beforehand.

We have many costumes & are unable to cater for lots of requests to alter the collection day to suit individuals.

No costumes will be released until full payment made.

There will hopefully be a list of costume prices released very soon.

Prices have soured since our last show & we have done our very best to source the most reasonably priced costumes & accessories.

Please bear with me whilst the lists are finished as this is hours of work due to many costumes being made up of 3-4 components.


Shout out’s

This week our shout out’s go to:

  • Peter Gaylard
  • Chloe Thompson
