Unique, Solo Dance Costumes: Is it worth the money?
As with any commodity, there are certain price points to consider. Purchasing custom solo dance costumes is no exception.
The lowest price point would include off-the-rack dance costumes or regular street apparel that you would use ‘as is’ or embellish yourself, with some rhinestones or other trims. If you sew something yourself, or have a friend or relative donate their time, this can also be economical.
Commissioning a local talented individual dressmaker would be your mid-price option. While commissioning a custom-design costume specialist-company will be on the high-end.
As with any purchase, you need to decide if the benefits of the higher-end product out weight the costs. What should you consider? Answer the following questions, and you will better be able to decide if commissioning a high-quality, totally unique, custom solo dance costume is for you.
