Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know I will get a suit that fits?

Proper measurements are the key to a great fitting suit, so please take time and care when taking your measurements. We recommend going to a professional seamstress or tailor to have them measure you. Or, if you have a web cam, we can guide you through taking your measurements through a pre-scheduled on-line video session at no cost.

We send a costume shell to you for a fitting once you give us your measurements. You can fine tune the fit to your personal taste at that time. Once again, you can choose to go to your local seamstress or tailor, or use our on-line fitting service.

How long will it take until I get my finished jumpsuit?

Most orders can be completed within 8 weeks. Please note that we will only start your order once we receive your first payment and your measurement sheet.

We can sometimes accommodate rush orders in as little as 5 weeks, depending on workload. But any rush orders (less than 8 weeks) are subject to a 15% surcharge to cover overtime costs.

Please let us know when you place your order if there is a specific deadline that you have in mind, and we will do our best to accommodate your schedule.

What is the cost of the jumpsuit?

You can find the prices on the specific page for the suit you are interested in. Or you can contact us for a full price list. We reserve the right to change prices.

Prices are quoted in US funds. For customers in Canada and other countries we use the currency conversion rates on the day that you make your order.

Shipping charges will be calculated when you make your order, and the cost will be added to the price of your suit.

6% Goods and Service Tax will added to the price for Canadian customers. North American customers pay no customs and excise tax due to NAFTA. Customers from other countries should contact your Customs office to find out about applicable taxes and duties.

How do I pay for my jumpsuit?

We accept money orders, Paypal, or email money transfers. Sorry, no cheques or credit cards.

One half of the price of your suit is due when you place your order. The second half is due before we mail you your suit. There will be no exceptions.

We will email you a receipt immediately after we receive each of your payments.

Are your jumpsuits authentic reproductions?

The patterns we use were developed from careful study of the original Elvis stage costumes. They are close to the original designs, but not exact. Not all of the studs used on Elvis’ suits are currently available, so where necessary we use studs that look similar.

Each suit we make has slight variations in the pattern of decoration to accommodate the proportions of each different person’s body.

How do I care for my jumpsuit?

Each jumpsuit we ship out comes with care instructions. Jumpsuits are very easy to care for. Just hand wash with a gentle soap for fine washables (such as Zero) in a large tub and drip dry. Laundry detergents are too harsh for the studs, so do not use Tide or any other regular laundry soap, and do not dry clean. Do not agitate your suit in a washing machine, as this can dislodge studs over time.

Do you offer a guarantee?

Talk to us within a month of receiving your suit if you are not completely satisfied. We stand behind our work and will do whatever we can to remedy any problem, within reason.

Who can I talk with to discuss my costume needs?

Feel free to call the phone number on the contact page at any time. We may not answer your call immediately, but leave a message including a good time to reach you and Eleanor will get back to you.

We prefer to correspond with customers via email when possible. We check email several times a day, so you can be assured that we will get back to you as quickly as if you leave a phone message.

Can I buy an undecorated jumpsuit?

Yes, we currently sell them for $350 plus shipping and taxes.

Can I buy the belt separately?

Yes, contact us for pricing.
