Welcome to The Dressing Room TSV ...

Welcome.

We’re happy you’re here. Be sure to look around, and find out more about our passion for designing, creating, compiling and enhancing dance and theatrical costumes, props and more!

Why?

We believe that costumes are more than just pieces of fabric to tell a story - they add a sprinkle of magic around the performer to provide the audience with the perfect performance. Rather than just a standard costume, we want to look outside the box and provide you with something in character, but also unique to you.

How?

Upon receiving your brief, we arrange a selection of the best possible options based on your timeframe and budget. Once we have approval, we design, source, create, bedazzle and accessorise to ensure performers are happy and looking their best!

When?

Depending on your requirements, in some cases for individual performers we can provide costumes on a rush basis. For Dance Troupes requiring collections, we recommend allowing 4-6 months for production and blingifying! Full theatrical productions should aim for a minimum of 4 months prior to show.

Testimonials

  • “Billy Elliot Working with The Dressing Room Townsville on Billy Elliot the Musical was quite simply a delight. From our very first production meeting to the final curtain, their attention to detail and commitment to excellence brought our production to life in ways I couldn't have hoped for. The costumes were not only visually stunning but were crafted with a deep understanding of the characters and the story. Each piece was perfectly designed to reflect either the solidarity of the community with hand made miners overalls, or the the individuality of key characters with Mrs Wilkinson’s 1980’s wardrobe. The costuming was so well thought through which elevated the production to epic levels. The team at The Dressing Room went above and beyond to ensure that every costume was meticulously tailored, practical for our performers, and, most importantly, added to the immersive experience of the show. A particular mention needs to be made to the absolutely wonderful giant dresses made for ‘Expressing Yourself’. When I asked if they would be possible, I had no idea the amount of hours, designs, prototypes and pool noodles that would follow. The team’s creative thought and commitment to their creation was phenomenal. I think everyone who saw the show would agree, they were a huge success! The transformation from rehearsal to performance was nothing short of magical, with the costumes becoming an essential part of the storytelling. Their professionalism, creativity, and passion for costume are unmatched, and we couldn't be more grateful for their contribution to making Billy Elliot a truly unforgettable production. We look forward to working with them on future projects and wholeheartedly recommend The Dressing Room Townsville for any production in need of stunning, quality costuming.”

  • “Having worked with the team from The Dressing Room TSV on a previous production, I was thrilled when Rebecca agreed to be the Costume designer and coordinator for our production of "Alice by Heart". The costumes were imaginative and colourful. The team at Dressing Room created a set of costumes that not only kept us in the location of 1940s London in the Blitz but also propelled us to Wonderland. Rebecca, Kirsty and Tania are friendly and creative and nothing ever seems too hard. I thoroughly enjoyed our collaboration and can't wait to do it again.”
