7/5/22 - a message to our customers

We're writing to update you on a challenging decision we've made, one that impacts our sales process and solo orders.

We’ve made the decision to focus our business on group sales of 5 or more garments in the same style and fabric color. As of August 1st, 2022, the general public will no longer be able to purchase 1-4 garments online, except for those with a registered Studio Business Account page, or those reordering garments to match a past order.

I realize this is a huge change, especially for all the studio and professional dancers who helped us grow into the company we have become. For you we are immensely grateful! However, we believe this change is necessary for us to progress to the next chapter in our story, as well as continue to serve you with the passion, quality, and dedication to on-time delivery that you’ve come to expect.

If there are any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us. Our team is ready and available to chat!

Best,
Deb Erickson, Owner & Creative Director
