So many shows, so little time ⏰

As we gear up for a new set of shows, we're taking a moment to remember some of our all-time favorites from the past few years. This is also a unique view on our behind the scenes organization - rack dividers! These little heroes help us organize each show, character, and garment, ensuring smooth operations at BJC. Efficiency is key in our craft, and these specific rack dividers play a significant role in maintaining our standards.

When regal elegance meets craftsmanship excellence β›ͺ️

We're excited to share one of our favorite builds from Henry VIII; Cardinal Campeggio, the papal legate. The Cardinal's attire is a testament to our unwavering commitment to detail and artistry. The gracefully flowing train is strategically secured to the base jacket using a combination of snaps and hooks, ensuring wardrobe changes are effortless and seamless. The fashion fabric of the jacket was beautiful on both sides, so the design team chose to use the "wrong side" for the cumberbund and for internal contrast. This costume demands attention and respect, like the Cardinal himself!

Interested what other tips and tricks were utilized in this build? Leave your questions in the comments!

We are live, live, live, living for this dress! πŸ’ƒ

Check out this exquisite blue floral organza dress we had the pleasure of making this summer! Inspired by a vintage 50's cocktail dress, this garment boasts delicate ruching on the bodice to create a luxurious texture that perfectly complements the fabulous print. 😍

Shoutout to Costume Designer, Jen Moeller, whose creative genius brought this enchanting ensemble to life. BJC has had the opportunity to work with Jen before, such as on this past spring and on . We always love working with Jen and her team, we look forward to sharing more exciting Jen Moeller/BJC collaborations in the future!

We’re sew ready for the Funny Girl tour!

The first step BJC takes when intaking a new show is to select color matched thread for each fabric and trim. Due to our meticulous record keeping on previous builds we were able to quickly prepare and get to work right away! One of the many benefits of reordering with BJC! Here's a glimpse of our prep work. Can you unravel the mystery of which character these spools of thread are for? Hint: we’ve built for this character before!

We continue celebrating our Tony nominees with none other than Micaela Diamond! BJC first met Micaela when Parade began its journey at the New York City Center. BJC made Micaela’s linen suit, and we were thrilled when the production moved to Broadway! Since then we have made several Lucille Frank blouses and linen suits for understudies/covers, in addition to new builds for other characters.

Furthermore, we need to shout out the fabulous Costume Designer Susan Hilferty, who has also been nominated for her work on Parade! BJC has had the honor of working with Susan extensively on Funny Girl, which was also nominated for Best Costume Design last year.

Break legs, ladies! We're cheering you on!
