The TDF Costume Collection provides professionally designed costumes at affordable prices. The reasonable prices not only allow fledgling companies to mount more professional-looking shows; they also help theatres to produce a greater number of new works by keeping production costs down.
Performing arts organizations; colleges and universities; middle and high schools; and community and charitable groups are primarily among those eligible to take advantage of all the TDF Costume Collection has to offer.
If you are not in the New York area or are unable to visit The Collection, for an additional fee you can use the Pulling Service. If available, the Collection's expert design team will choose costumes for you based on the information you provide.
You may visit the Collection to browse or, by appointment, use the Collection's library for research.
