Costume Pick-up

What Should I Expect At  Costume Pick-up....

We ask for your PATIENCE as our staff is working so hard to be sure every family has what they need before they leave the building. We will do our best to be thorough and note any concerns. Thank you for your understanding in advance. 

Please be prepared to fill out a sheet and sign these costumes out. ALL COSTUMES MUST BE SIGNED OUT BY AN ADULT. Dancers will NOT be trying them on in class this year, but please try it on at home immediately to verify that you have all accessories and that it fits properly. 

Each costume should be sent home with a small sheet called the "Costume Info Sheet". This will notify you of any accessories and what their placement should be. These sheets are beneficial to store with your recital costume on recital day.

Also included with our female dancer's recital costume will be one pair of tights. All female dancers need to wear tights with their costumes! As there is a special lining in the dance tights, students should not wear underwear with their tights due to the cut of some of their costumes. 

Please Note: Accounts MUST be in good standing to take your costume home. This includes: Recital Fee, Costume Fees, and Tuition. Thank you for your understanding. As always, contact Miss Shari for any questions or concerns at 260-1787! 

Once You Get Home...

TRY YOUR CHILD'S COSTUMES ON IMMEDIATELY TO ENSURE THERE ARE NOT ANY ISSUES. Also please compare your accessories with the included Costume Info Sheet to note any inconsistencies that we may be able to help clear up. (Contact us at 716-260-1787  with any issues.)

PLEASE STORE YOUR COSTUMES IN A SAFE PLACE. Students should not wear their costumes to play or anything of that nature prior to their picture day, dress rehearsal or the recital. 

DO NOT WASH COSTUMES IN THE WASHING MACHINE. 

Costume Alterations may be necessary as the sizing is not custom to each build and height. We do recommend trying your child's costume on once more before picture day to ensure no alterations are needed. For all costumes ordered in your requested size, JCDA is not responsible for any alterations. However, we do have the information for several seamstresses if any of our families are interested in their services. Please contact Miss Shari directly at 716-260-1787.

Please Note: JCDA has done everything possible to honor each of our dancers sizes as indicated on the measurement sheet you submitted to the front desk in November. In the event a costume was not available in the original size noted on your golden measurement sheet, JCDA will make any needed alterations to your child's costume if needed. JCDA is NOT fiscally responsible for any alterations or exchanges for correctly ordered and processed costumes, as per your Costume Measurement sheet.
