Fair Pricing for Rentals & Purchases

At Studio M, we believe every performance costume should be accessible, transparent, and fairly priced.

That’s why we use a dynamic pricing system based on usage and condition — ensuring you always know the value of each piece.

Renting & Purchasing

Many of our designs are available for both rental and purchase.

If a costume has been rented, its purchase price adjusts accordingly, ensuring fair pricing for everyone.

You may also choose to purchase a costume after renting — our team will advise on the current price at that time.


How It Works

Brand New Pieces

  • Never worn
  • Priced at full value

 

Lightly Used Pieces

  • Previously rented
  • Professionally cleaned, inspected, and competition-ready
  • Priced lower to reflect prior use

 

Studio Archive Pieces

  • Well-maintained, used pieces
  • Reserved for rentals, showcases, or training
  • Not for sale

 

Every costume is individually assessed so pricing reflects actual condition, not just age.
