Announcement
Please note the processing time for costumes. I've had to change what's offered on some costumes due to difficulties getting some supplies.
Many costumes require several measurements. The listing will explain which measurements and how to take them.
Due to changes with Etsy and potential penalties applied to sellers whose orders go beyond the stated processing time, if you do not include your measurements with your order, or send them within 3 business days, your order will be cancelled and refunded.
Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. Sometimes convos don't make it through or get buried, so if you don't hear from me within a couple of days, please email me directly at sales [!at] gypsy-red.com.
I'm not currently taking on new costume commissions due to difficulties finding materials.

5 out of 5 starsExactly as described! I got the two smaller stars with pin backs and was able to pin them to my Keds right away! I asked the seller to make a hole in the big star if possible but it seems like it wasn't something they were able to do for me, but that's understandable. Just putting that in the review so other potential customers know. The stars are good quality and I'm satisfied. 🌟

5 out of 5 starsMy daughter absolutely loved her costume. We had a little trouble keeping the bow pinned on the back because the clasp wouldn’t seal, but the quality of the costume was excellent.

Custom Cosplay costumes
I started out making things for my dolls when I was 8 or 9 years old. My grandmother taught me the basics on her old Bernina sewing machine. By high school I was altering patterns to fit me and making my own clothing. By the time I was married in my early 20s, I'd started into costuming and that quickly became my main focus.
My philosophy about cosplay costumes is that they aren't costumes, they're that character's clothes, so they should be made like clothes, and meant to be worn repeatedly and cleaned.
My children's costumes are all made with everything sewn securely on, and intended to be worn and played in repeatedly. They're all wash-n-wear, so you don't have to worry about them falling apart after one trip through the washer. Most children outgrow my costumes before they wear them out.
I grew up learning how to sew from both my mother and my grandmother, who learned the tricks of the trade from my great grandfather, who was a professional tailor.
I also sell in four other shops:
Dittybaggs

Frequently asked questions
Do you ship to APO/FPO addresses?
Yes, I will happily ship to APO and FPO military addresses.
I'm not sure how to take my measurements, can you help?
You're welcome to contact me for help taking them, or you can view how to take most measurements on my website here: http://www.gypsy-red.com/measurements.html
Just click on the character's name, then on the costume photo and it'll open a window with pictures of how to take each measurement.
Do you really need all of these measurements?
Yes, they're all measurements I need to make sure your costume will fit correctly. I've seen lengths differ as much as 14" for people wearing the same size. If you're 5' tall, you wouldn't want to receive a costume made for someone 5'10", would you?
If I order four costumes, do you offer any extra discounts?
My prices are already about as low as I can go. I purchase my materials wholesale in bulk already. I'm a single person shop and this is my full time job, so all material costs, fees for selling online, and all of my time need to be accounted for. I do occasionally run sales or offer coupon codes, so you're welcome to ask if I have any specials going on. Whether I'm making one costume or four, the materials are going to cost me the same and each one is still going to take me the same amount of time to make.
I found a child size costume I want, can I get it in an adult size?
Please check the Adult Size Costumes section of my shop, or do a search in my shop. Chances are I have an adult size listed. If you don't see one, then please contact me and I'll be happy to give you a quote for one in your size.
Do you take commissions?
Yes, I do. Please read the full of my shop announcement to see what I can and cannot do. If you believe your costume will fit in those guidelines, then feel free to send me a couple of pictures of what you want along with your general size so I can give you an estimate.
