Costumes play an important role in every
dance performance. We strive to make
finely crafted tutus and costumes that
make dancers feel beautiful, special
and capable of meeting their highest
potential.
The most beautiful tutus and dance costumes
are also the most functional, allowing
the dancer to move freely and expressively,
so we use the finest sewing techniques
and materials suitable for lasting, beautiful
costumes.
We pay great attention to the quality
of the fabrics and other components that
go into each costume, using the best
quality and most beautiful trims available.
Our rhinestones and crystals are always
from Swarovski. All trims are sewn to
our tutus and costumes and are placed
correctly. You will not find any glued-on
trim or lace. Nor will
you find trim placed in any way that
would interfere with partnering.
We can work from a photo, a sketch or
a description to get the tutu you have
always dreamed of. If your costume requires
research, our extensive library is always
at our fingertips. For authorized Balanchine
productions, we have ready access to
the Wardrobe Department at New York City
Ballet.
We are nit-picky about detail and care
greatly about fit. We want it to be perfect,
so please be careful with measurements,
as specified on our Measurement
Chart & Guide.
When you order a costume from Freda Tutus
you will receive our personal attention.
We will help you develop a design that
is beautiful and professionally made.
We are happy to do
the research necessary to ensure that
your costume is correct for the ballet
you are performing. Give us a call and
we can talk.
