Have anyone stumbled across any commercial 1/6 tailors that take commission work? I know there's that one high-end Korean one - but they don't seem very open to new stuff. Any out there? Money is no object.
 
I went to a seamstress years ago, when figures were around $45, and the woman wanted A$100 to do the job. So I didn't worry about it. I expect it will be more these days. A$100 would have been around $75 of your dollars. I couldn't tell you why it was that much or how well fitting her work would have been. She may have just been pricing herself out of the equation because she didn't want the job. I guess you have to ask around.
 
I know D-Art Studios does some stuff. Robes and things like that. Not sure what you are looking for though.
They did a custom Geonosis Padme outfit for me. Turned out pretty good...
 
I would imagine the cost is quite high because it takes a lot more man hours to produce decently scaled clothing (that actually fits right) than one might think.
 
Gidget Earle who works for Sideshow quoted me recently on some Stargate Atlantis BDU's if monies no object Id get in touch with her. If you want her email shoot me a PM or alternatively look her up in the forums here

Any pics of that? I've got an awesome Darth Callous Padme head that's is way too nice to keep in my parts box.

OT, I've also been looking for a tailor/seamstress to do an Aayla Secura outfit commission. Was not pleased with Sideshow's offering.
