Giving (and getting) Props

I am the Barber of Sevilllllllllllle! Wow, it's awesome you can't here
me singing. Sometimes I boo myself, even in the shower.

Thought you'd get a kick out of seeing our stuff in action. We supply many, many TV shows, movie sets, theater groups, opera's, etc. and have done so for decades. If you ever thought you recognized our stuff some where there's probably something to that. Credit for the photos shown here go to photographer Rod Millington.

Uniforms, boots, belts, helmets, etc. can all be seen in the Sarasota Opera's latest production, Verdi's Giovanna d'Arco (Joan of Arc). Artistic Director Maestro Victor DeRenzi, Stage Director Martha Collins, Set Designer Jeff Dean, Wig and Make-Up Designer Georgianne Eberhard, Costumes Howard Tsvi Kaplan, Lighting Designer Ken Yunker.

Get cultured - Sarasota Opera you won't regret it.

Robin Hood - coming soon!


Rise and rise again, until lambs become lions!
Wish I thought of that. Now this is the version we've been waiting for- Robin Hood at his grittiest best and actors who look the part. Click here to see the latest trailer and try not to get excited, go on, we dare ya.

Our first wave of props and clothing will center around the obvious - Robin and Marian, plus a few wrinkles thrown in. Then we'll see what happens, but the pieces we've had the good fortune to work with are magnificent and we're proud to bring them to you as seen and used on screen.

Now all you men in tights get moving looting King John, you'll want what we're bringing and coin of the Realm would be appreciated.

Happy Halloween Early!

So you want to be a Civil War soldier, pirate, assassin, the Phantom, Spartan warrior, Roman soldier or just plain royalty for Halloween? Something else? Not a problem. We have a full line of outfits for men and women, even kids. We know how hard it is to get geared up right for a special themed event and not look too dorky doing it. Whether it be Halloween, a Ren Faire, wedding, Con, you name it, we've got you covered right down to the boots.

You deserve real outfits made of leather, wool, silk, cotton and poly/cotton blends so that you not only look the part, but feel the part of who ever you decide to become. Plus we ship worldwide (most items anyway, Customs gets funny about some of our "toys") so no excuses this year or any other for not looking awesome.

Heck I'm even going to be a...you know what, I'll let you guess. And if you nail it I'll send you 2 gift cards worth from $10-$100 each. Go ahead and leave your guess in comments (keep it relatively clean, I'm not that kind of boy so no Little Bo Peep references). First one to nail the theme wins, either way I'll end the suspense Sept 18. I may even drop hints along the way. A little bio to help you out- I like puppies, long walks on the beach, sunsets, oh wait not that bio...

Our items sell out quickly heading into the fall so don't wait too long or that dorky thing you want to avoid may come true.

Off to Comic Con!

Luuuke, I am your tailor...

"Nooooooooooooooooo!" It's true, and we're so proud we could pull the ears off a Gundar.

Excited isn't the word, we can't wait for you to see the Star Wars world come to life like never before. Add in Hyboria and the Marvel Universe and you've got a pretty lethal combination. Speaking of lethal our Terminator jacket will be there too. The best part about our costumes and props are that they are REAL and you can wear most of the items for total immersion. Yep, we think it's cool too. I'll try to give updates while we're at the show, but you know how it is once there, nothing but work, work, work. =)

Well we're off to SDCC to show the world the galaxy has a new tailor.

Pirate Camp is in...are you arrrrgh enough?



We've recently finished working on another feature length movie that's not all blood and guts, you can actually show it to your kids (in fact, that's who it's for). Pirate Camp from Antibody Films stars Corbin Bernson and will be available soon on DVD. It's a fun, adventurous romp for the whole family! We hope you enjoy the costumes especially, they're ours and show what we can't in our catalogs and websites- they look good and hold up no matter how they're used.

You can't go wrong with a little swashbuckling, light hearted humor and Blackbeard can you?
