Public Rentals
- The Costume Loft is a rental only costume store. We do not sell our inventory nor do we stock sellable costume items like bald caps, facial hair or colored contacts.
- Rentals are for two weeks periods. Regrettably, we can not hold or reserve items.
- Prices are per piece and is based on the types of garments chosen. Since our prices now including cleaning costs, it does mean that garment price can vary quiet a bit due to some needing dry cleaning while others do not. We do try to make sure all garments have labels with care instructions on the inside but feel free to ask our staff if you are unsure. The rule of thumb it that if it’s made from wool, brocade fabric or silk it will most likely need dry cleaning so they will have a higher rental price.
- A full costume can cost anywhere from $50 – $100 depending on how elaborate you make your costume.
- When returning please provide the name of the person that rented the costume. Please do not drop off items outside our door or with the box office.
Stage or Film Rentals
- Rentals are typically for the length of your production or filming cycle.
- Prices are per piece and depends on the type of garments chosen.
- We encourage designers to bring their actors in for fittings when possible. Since the loft is small and only has 2 dressing rooms, please limit the number of participants.
- The loft does offer the opportunity to borrow costumes for fittings on approval. The standard length for theatre companies is 1 week and for film 48 hours. The length of time is up to the discretion of the loft manager.
- Unless otherwise indicated by staff, you must clean all items before they are returned.
Donations
Donations are accepted at anytime during loft hours. We are currently welcoming donations of clothing – vintage (pre-2000) or select contemporary items deemed useful for Langham’s collection, costumes, accessories and jewelry. Examples – clothing for women and men (vintage, historical, ‘labels’), furs, hats, bags, shoes, stage clothing. Clothing items must be clean, with no musty or moth ball odour. Clothing that is not useful for the Costume Loft is sold in our annual sale, with proceeds going to Langham Court Theatre.
