Renate Zondag
Owner, designer and seamstress
As a former ballet dancer and ballet teacher I know the importance of a well-fitted costume. When on stage there is already so much you need to be aware of. Whether your costume is fitting-well should not be one of them. Etudes Dancewear creates costumes that fit you well so you can shine on stage.
My costumes have been seen in major ballet and dance competitions such as Youth America Grand Prix (USA, Canada, Taiwan, France, Spain, Singapore, Japan), Universal Ballet Competition, California Dance Classics, Global Dance Open, World Ballet Competition, Miami International Ballet Competition, and many more.
RTW or Custom
Which one suits you and your situation best?
Ready-to-Wear (RTW) costumes are costumes which are pre-made in a specific style and size. All of these costumes are handmade and come in standard sizes. RTW costumes that are currently available can be found in the webshop.
Sometimes a certain role asks for a specific costume. Or you want something specially made for you and your measurements. If this is what you are looking for please contact me with your wishes. A custom order can take weeks/months to be ready. (depending on the time of the year and design choices) If there is a specific time frame I need to be aware of, please let me know in advance so we can discuss possibilities.
All orders that need to be completed within 6 weeks of order acceptance are considered a rush order. A rush fee will be applied.
