I'm looking for someone who can do a custom costume for around $300
for a convention?

Does anyone know someone who can do a custom costume anywhere close to
that price range?

Depends a lot on *where* in the world *you* are, this is an
internation forum. If your posting IP is close, then try
searching the database of the Professional Association of Custom
Clothiers in your area of Virginia:

You might also check local fabric stores, lots of professional
sewists leave contact information with them.

HTH,

I realise there are several variations in meaning of words and vocabulary
each side of the Atlantic, is 'sewist' a common expression in the US? It
just doesn't look - or sound - right to me!

As may be, but "sewer" looks awful to me...stinks, too! ;-)

There have been several discussions on this newsgroup for an
alternative to "sewer" for "a person (of either gender) who
sews". Since "seamstress" seems sexist, and "tailor" is mostly
used to refer to males, what do you suggest?
