OperaDelaware rents complete costumes from our inventory ranging from Renaissance to Modern costumes. Costumes are divided into two classifications: "Standard Collection" and "Private Collection." The "Standard Collection" is comprised of quality costumes from every era including fantasy and animal costumes. Our "Private Collection" costumes are beautifully detailed and made from the highest quality materials. The difference in workmanship is reflected in the rental price.
In general, we rent individual costumes. Although complete show "packages" are not available, designers have costumed entire shows out of our stock with marvelous results. Many costumers have used our collection to "round out" their designs, finding the perfect pieces to make their production spectacular.
We invite you to take a look at selections from our costume inventory.
