Northern Costume Hire was established in 1984 in the rural town of Skipton, North Yorkshire. Beginning life as a fancy dress shop, it has grown into one of the largest theatrical costumiers in the country. We provide costumes both for amateur and professional theatre, televisions, schools and colleges, and individual hire.
