Description: Why come to us?
We are trained seamstresses and craftspeople making high-quality costumes! We work with each customer on an individual basis to provide them with just what they are looking for! Everything is custom made, based on your provided measurements and preferences! We also offer two quality levels (Standard and Deluxe!) to give you the best price to fit your wants and budget. We are the only full time costume commissioners in the US, and all of us at limebarb.com pride ourselves on this fact. This is more than a part time hobby for us! ^.^
We are a group of dedicated artists and craftspeople who are commissioned by a diverse clientele. Most of the work we do is on custom costumes for anime, video game, and comic book fans attending the hundreds of conventions held worldwide each year. We also work with individual clients to create custom clothing based on their own original designs! We enjoy bringing people's daydreams for their very own unique outfit to life!



What kind of experience and training do we have in making costumes?
Barb attended Columbia College Chicago for fashion design and has been making personal costumes since 1998. She started making costumes professionally in 2002. Barb and her staff have created well over 1,000 costumes and custom clothing items. All of the part-time seamstresses either have a degree in fashion design and lots of experience on their own creating garments or are at least halfway through their degrees with a significant amount of experience. The craftspeople have been trained directly by Barb.





What sorts of things can we make?
We pride ourselves on our ability to do excellent work with the following:
-All fabric-oriented clothing items
-Bodysuits
-Pleather and vinyl
-Period costumes
-Feathered wings
-Light prop work
-Armor in Wonderflex, plastics, and fiberglass
-Boots and shoes (we typically make shoes by building on top of store-bought shoes.)
-Styled wigs and custom-colored wigs
-Gloves
-Mascot-type fur suits
-And much more~!

Hello!



I've seen your work, looked through it all, and I was interested in getting a commission, but first I would like to get your quote on the costume, how long it would take, what materials/fabrics you would use, pricing, and etc before I make a final decision.
I wanted to do a traditional Final Fantasy Tactics Bard costume, as authentic and as reasonable as I can afford. However, I don't have much time to be dedicating to the making of it with all my other projects and classes going on. So I would like to know how much it would cost to do this costume. Is it possible for you do the shoes and leg straps?



Here's the character and costume:
http://www3.telus.net/public/mehwulfe/misc/fft/bard.jpg



I would be taking this costume to Fanime on May 22nd, but I would like to have it before then so I can work with the rest of my group.



Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope to get a PM reply soon!

Can I please have a quote for an exact replica of Amelia's dress from Underworld?


Here is a link with 3 reference photos, but am working on a video clip of her walking through the train to provide a better view.

Yes, I would like proper bead work and proper boning, preferably steel.


The dress is needed before June.


*video will be added or sent to you once loaded to youtube*

Hi! Your work looks fantastic.



I will be cosplaying Kazu from Air Gear very soon and I was hoping to get a quote on the jacket and the pants of this character.



#1 Black jacket+black pants [PVC]
#2 Black jacket+black pants [Faux Leather]
#3 Black jacket+black pants [Pleather]



other questions:



- If I need 4 long straps for Akito/Agito, how much more do I have to pay? And what material would they be made of?
eg. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y163/Curze/Picture2-2.png



- If I want the gloves to be made, how much would they cost? [pvc, faux leather, pleather]



Here are some references:



note: there should be orange lining on inside here and a logo on back

logo on back - http://img156.imageshack.us/my.php?image=65553433hf1.png



I would like to know if the tailor is able to provide these materials for the costume:
#1 silver-white metal zips
#2 Colour acrylic rectangle pieces, in dark pink, blue and green.



Please pm me with the quotes. Thanks!

A quote for... Ash Ketchum! :]
http://anime-wallpapers.com/images/1024x768/ash-and-pikachu.jpg



But for 2 things really. First, his jacket. A blue jacket with white short sleeves and a white collar (that I could flare up). The jacket is lined with yellow at the bottom, as well as on the diagonal slits for the pockets on the front (can there be pockets sewn in?). Don't forget about the yellow circles (signifying buttons, probably)~



Next, the fingerless gloves. A plain green, but has light green lining at the bottom.



That's about it! Thank you~


And as a side question... Are you able to make backpacks? o-o;
