Costume Commitment

Actions we are committed to taking

*if any of these actions are not met, or you notice we have missed something to accommodate you, please contact the Costume Supervisor (kelsey.vidic@csulb.edu)

  • We believe that all bodies of every variety are beautiful. We take time and care to design and make/alter costumes that fit your individual body type.
  • We recognize that skin tones are many different shades.
  • We are committed to finding the best skin tone shade, with the performer's approval, for any costume that is attempting to be the color of your skin.
  • We are committed to labeling and categorizing the costume stock and materials in a way that is inclusive and denies stereotypes, racism, gender assumption, or culturally inappropriate terms.
  • We acknowledge that every person with a disability requires different accommodations. We are committed to adapting our costume space to any student that would like to work in the shop or is using the space for fittings or classes.
  • With every new dancer that is being fitted in the shop, we ask you fill out a 鈥淐ostume Boundary鈥 sheet to familiarize us with your preferred name, pronouns, and boundaries with clothing and hair.
  • We acknowledge that there are different products and increased time, and costs needed to achieve hairstyles for our Black students. The Shop Supervisor and Designer will collaborate in finding a style that works best with that dancer.
  • The Costume Supervisor will be attentive during fittings and dress rehearsals to recognize and point out to the Designer (Lighting or Costume) if a certain color choice is working against or not in favor with the color of the dancer鈥檚 skin.
