Costume Network is a curated platform where costume makers, performers, vendors, and event producers come together to share their work, connect with others, and celebrate costume culture. Visitors can explore Member Profiles, shop Listings, hire artists to create something special, or find collaborators to help bring their own events to life.
Costume Network is for everyone who brings costume culture to life- from the makers of costumes and creators of events to the participants who embody them. This platform is for people who live creatively through costume.
Creative professionals can use the button at the top of the page to Apply now. Applications are reviewed by the Costume Network team, and invitations are sent out on a rolling basis. Be sure to tell us all about how awesome you are and include links to your work or anything else that shows how you contribute to costume culture.
If you’re just visiting, feel free to explore what these amazing artists are offering.
Your Member Profile is your foundation. It’s where you introduce yourself and share your role in costume culture. Once you create one, you can add Listings to share products, offer services, showcase DIY projects, or highlight the communities you’re part of. Each Member Profile is the core from which your Listings branch out to show what you are offering.
A Listing is like a sign hung outside your door, it’s inviting people to see what you’re offering, whether it’s a product, service, project, or community. Your Member Profile is the core, and each Listing branches off to showcase what you bring to costume culture.
Our vouching system builds trust through mutual recognition. When you collaborate, work together, or have a great experience with someone, you can vouch for each other. It’s a way to show appreciation, grow your reputation, and help others know who they can rely on.
We’re just getting started. Coming soon:
- A peer-to-peer resale marketplace where anyone can sell full costumes, pieces, and accessories
- Dedicated storefronts for Product Vendors
- Costume X: a visual inspiration tool to help dream up new ideas and characters
We’re here for you. If you have questions, run into tech issues, or want help figuring out the best way to participate, just reach out:
