Custom 1840s Sweeney Todd Dress for Jen (Non-refundable Downpayment)
This is a custom listing reserved for Jen and is the first payment of three.
As a custom piece, this item is professionally handmade at my Texas (USA) studio and will be completed and shipped by November 31, 2024, provided the downpayment is made by May 27, 2024, and the final payment is made by November 15, 2024.

ALL THE DETAILS
Purchase of this listing includes the first several steps for creating an 1840s dress based on the dress seen in the listing photo from the Broadway Sweeney Todd production.
These steps are:
- finding and purchasing the dress fabrics and buttons (with feedback from the client)
- assisting the client, if needed, in taking accurate measurements via a video-conferencing platform (the measurement worksheet will be sent to your email 48 hours after this purchase and you can let me know if you are confident taking the measurements yourself or if you need help)
- a mock-up (mailed) and virtual fitting of the dress bodice in August 2024
The dress will be created to replicate the one seen in the photos, as provided by the client, as closely as possible
Once these steps have been completed, the next payment will be due. The total due (over two payments: one in September and one in November) will be between $699-$849; I will let you know the exact amount that will be due once the supplies have been purchased and the fitting completed (by August 31, 2024). After that payment, work on the dress will commence.
