Tracie L. Arnold, Designer
How does a former administrator for a "Fortune 500" company become a fashion and costume designer?
My passion has always been creating, and I have enjoyed making reproduction costumes from both movies as well as Historically accurate garments for over 20 years now. When I was laid off from my corporate job not too long ago, I suddenly found myself a stay at home mom. I wanted a career that would allow me to stay home with my boys, but also to do something creative. I decided to start up a business that offers couture quality garments inspired by the historical and movie designs I've loved and reproduced for years.
I am a one woman operation, and everything is hand-crafted by me. Do expect your custom creation to take some time. Still, it is well worth the wait. I only take a limited number of commissions throughout the year, so be sure and check with me early if you want order something special!
