Costume Designer

On Location: Western Costume

Founded in the movie biz’s earliest days, Western Costume is a one-stop shop for film, TV, commercial, digital media and theatre costumes. The 100-year old company got its start in downtown Los Angeles providing authentic cowboy and Indian wear for silent one-reel films (hence, the Western Costume name). Today, Western Costume’s 100,000-square-foot North Hollywood warehouse holds between three to five million pieces of clothing, accessories, and footwear. Topping it all off is an extensive research library–an invaluable resource for show designers and costumers.
