Download the free HotMess Dance Apparel Base/Sans-Rhinestones Sample bid, and browse before jumping in. Priced to show finished product and a discount should the studio have their own team to finish straps and minor items. HMDA brand costumes come without stones and embellishments, i.e. feathers, trim, etc. If accessories are negotiated, it would be an add-on amount to this sample quote.

General Sizing vs Measurements
Soloist Custom Dance Costumes
The pattern for your order is best if it is made to your precise measurements. We are all about the fit; so if you have to pay for a pattern to be created, we do that to your specific size & measurements.
Multiple Custom Dance Costumes
In order to cut costs on group, trio, or duet costumes, you may want to order by standardized or averaged sizing whenever possible. There is a pattern charge for each size of the pattern and each variance.
Ready-Made Products In Our Stores
Our stores’ products are made to both standardized general sizing, shown at right, and measurements that are equivalent to current customers. If the costume was made to measurements other than our standardized general sizing, exact specifications will be listed on the product listings.

General Pricing of Custom Costumes
Average Price & Range on ContenderWear™
It is important to note why the average price and range has been increasing. Materials and shipping have been increasing at a good rate. Customers who insist on very specific, hard-to-get supplies may need them from various suppliers, doubling, tripling, and even quadrupaling the shipping rates on the products. We have also seen a demand increase in the amount of baubles on our costumes. Depending upon the brand requested this can add anywhere from $150 to $700 in decorations
Communication is Key
At the onset of your order, it is important that we know your costuming ideas, if any, your budget, and time-line.
Ready-Made Products In Our Stores
Our ready-made, ready-to-ship costumes and products are usually made for showcasing our skills. They are shown on models, if possible, and we discount them. If you want one made in your size, it is subject to a new cost estimate, which is not necessarily the list price of our showcase work. It all depends on size, materials required, labor, at that point in time.
