If you would like help deciding on the perfect color, I am more than happy to help.
Think about colors you like to wear. If you choose a color you LOVE, it will show in your confidence on stage.
Jewel tones are most popular and look great on a variety of skin tones and hair colors.
Consider that you will have a dark tan on show date in your color choice.
Be careful of light colors. Tanning products could soil a light colored suit.
CRYSTAL DESIGNS
Once you choose the base style of your suit, then choose a crystals design to fit your budget. The crystal design is the majority of the cost of your suit. I offer many crystal design options across all price ranges.
Custom crystal designs are more than welcome.
If you would like something different than what is shown, contact me for a design consultation.
WHEN TO ORDER
The best time to order your suit is 10-12 weeks or more out from your contest. Some athletes order their suit 6+ months ahead of time. This ensures a “place in line” as it is very busy and it is first come, first serve. Placing your order as early as possible, ensures your spot is saved. Also, ordering ahead of time gives more time if you are planning a payment plan to pay for your suit. If you are close to your competition, contact me to check availability.
