What a fun filled week! I got flown home to my old home town Melbourne for three days to sew on a set designed by Edwards Moore for Architecture in Helsinki to use for their Big Day Out Tour! A funny coincidence that a band with the word Architecture in their name would go with [...]

Another year has passed with Agent Costume
A big thank you to all who have utilised the costuming services of Agent Costume this year, whether custom made costumes, costume hire or alterations, your custom has meant a great deal to me this year. Operating out of a small space has been challenging sometimes, and also a great deal of fun being faced [...]
Peter Pan
Peter Pan is flying away this week to a party in the city. “Peter Pan doesn’t have leather wrist cuffs!” “But darling, he’s going to a party, you’d expect him to make an effort!” Says Peter.

It’s not often one gets the request to make a custom made super hero costume for a common variety Garden Gnome. “Listen mate,” he said, “I’m going to a super hero costume party for me fairy mate Giselda’s 568th birthday, and I need an outfit” “Is this some kind of a joke?” “Nah mate, I’m [...]
Working on a TVC
“Can you make up make a billy cart sail?” What fun! “And some white tent covers while you’re at it, to use next week.” “Great! I can do that!” The fabric wasn’t bought until the day before, so i ended up having 1 and a half days to get the total job done. On top [...]
