Do you get tired of seeing the same crappy selection of Halloween costumes year after year with bad construction, lack of fit, and variations on the same theme? Forget one-size-fits most and make your own! There are tons of options for a custom costume that shows off your creativity and flatters your body with a couture fit.<\/p>\n

Bodysuits are quick and easy to make with even the most novice crafter able to achieve excellent results.\u00a0 They also don’t require much fabric thereby keeping your costs down as well.\u00a0 The drawback of a bodysuit based design is that they show a lot of skin, which on October 31st in most places is probably a bit chilly.\u00a0 However, if you’re going to be indoors or if you are lucky enough to live in a climate where your trick-or-treating isn’t affected by the night air then a bodysuit will work for you.<\/p>\n

We offer a few different custom fit designs that are tailored to your body measurements and choice of fabric.\u00a0 We only recommend 4-way stretch for a bodysuit, but different materials have different amounts of stretch: 4-way stretch vinyl, .20mm latex, or .35mm latex is what you should use.\u00a0 Our patterns are as follows:<\/p>\n
