September/October: The office staff, studio owner, and sometimes teachers check the costume room to review available options or identify costume needs.
January: Measure students for accurate costume sizing.
February: Place costume orders through preferred vendors, prioritizing Canadian suppliers.
March (before Spring Break): Costumes should arrive for quality checks and adjustments if necessary.
One Week Before Photo Day: Costumes are distributed to students.
After the Last Recital: Costumes are collected for future use, resale, or storage.
Check the Costume Room:
The office staff, studio owner, and sometimes teachers review in-stock costumes to determine what is available.
Identify gaps in styles, sizes, or themes needed for performances.
Order Online:
Start with Amazon or Halloween-themed websites for more affordable or small-scale needs.
If a specific costume is required, order from Canadian costume companies first.
If Canadian suppliers do not have the required costume, explore U.S. or international options.
