We have worked with many local and international film and theatre productions, providing them with the best FX and props in the industry.

If you are looking for professional and stage make-up, we have you covered. We have a large selection of Kryolan products, the world’s leading brand of professional make-up. We can help you achieve any look, from natural to dramatic, from glamorous to gory, from fantasy to sci-fi. We also offer make-up services and workshops, where you can learn how to apply make-up like a pro.

For all your ballet and dance needs, we have a dedicated section where you can find shoes, hosiery, and accessories. We have a variety of styles and sizes to suit any dancer, from beginner to professional. We also have a collection of beautiful tutus and leotards that will make you shine on stage.

We love working with schools and helping them with their plays and year-end functions. We have the widest selection of school play costumes in the country, from animals to pirates, from princesses to astronauts, from nursery rhymes to Shakespeare. We also offer discounts and delivery services for schools.

We are proud to have our own film and photography studio, where we have hosted many exciting projects. We have a huge variety of backdrops and props and all the costumes you need for your shoot. We have worked on music videos, adverts, feature films, magazine covers and articles, family shoots, and many more!
