- show-off,
inc -- For
several years, I have been seeing the shows at Franklin Park. I am not only
amazed at the very good talent, but, also the very professional costume
designs. Your organization should be commended for the custom made costumes.
It is like watching a very professional show with the great designing. You
must have a very artistic staff. Costumes in any show are the great part of
it all. --Olga Lopienski, Bellwood, Illinois
- Just
a couple photos and a million “thank you’s!!” for the wonderful job
you did creating my daughter’s Arizona State University’s field costume!
It is gorgeous and, as you can see, fits her perfectly!!... She loves it and
has gotten so many compliments on it. Her coach and band director say it’s
the best costume ever. Thank you for all your care in design workmanship!!
You’re all the best!!! --Erine Kennedy and her Mom, Katy, Arizona
- Just
wanted to let you know that the lyrical dress you designed and made for
Kimberly won an award at a recent dance competition (award of distinction

We will definitely be ordering from you again next year. -- Larissa Cleckler, Rockette Sponsor

attached a couple of pictures of the girls in their uniforms. Let me
tell you, the pictures do not truly show the beauty & elegance of these

closely with me to come up with this design. They turned out just the
way we wanted them to. Thanks again for your help!! -- Angela Ray, Jemison High School Majorette Instructor

decision going with Show-Off! BROVO! -- Larrie, Plymouth, MI
- Just
wanted to let you know Jamie's costume was a hit. Jamie won the
talent in the Miss division and place 2nd runner up. Her interview
always hurts her, she is so quiet. But she can twirl. Everyone
thought her costume was absolutely gorgeous. Thank you so much for all
your help. -- Donna Barnhart, Jesup

terrific. It's always a pleasure to do business with people who care about
the product that they deliver.
Thanks again,
-- Sheri Rice, Frederick, MD
- Just
wanted to let you know that my 7 years old daughter Nicole Shumaker has been
wearing the two costumes that we ordered from you. She is a baton
twirler in the state of NC and we have received so many compliments on them.
People stop me and ask me where I got such beautiful costumes for my
daughter. --
Sandra Shumaker, Summerfield,
- Just
wanted to drop you a short email to tell you again how much Glenna and I
appreciate your help in getting her costume ordered last evening (even
after the fiasco with the measuring tape!). You have been so helpful
with information and ideas. Last year her costume was done by an
individual about an hour from us so that meant several trips for fittings
and we just didn't have the time to commit this year. I was uneasy
about ordering from on-line information but you made it a painless
experience. Please pass this note along to your superiors--you are truly an asset
for Show Off and take the words "customer service" to a new level.
I will recommend you and Show Off to the mothers of Glenna's twirling
friends. Thanks again,
-- Becky Hill, Bald Win, GA
-
I wanted to let you know that my daughter's costume arrived yesterday, and
it is absolutely exquisite! It is really beautiful, and you did an
amazing job. --Dea Lyn Ogata
- The
pom costumes were great. I am sorry, I should have written and let you
know. Things are crazy................ I know that the costumes
will be a big hit at nationals. The twirling team costume is very striking on the floor and it makes all of
the kids looks great, which is always a plus. …Thank You for everything
you do to make my life easier. Without people like you that I can
depend on - I don't know what I would do.-- Linda Alford, Lauel, MD
- Thank
you so much for making the most wonderful uniforms in the world. My students
love them, and they have held up through all the hassle we have put them
through. They are awesome.-- Annie Barker-McMurray, Director/Bootheel Twirling Academy of Missouri
- I
got the costume. It's lovely and perfect. Thank you so much. … The
costume sure is divine. … Love
you guys and love your costumes!
-- Nickie Rains, Another
Satisfied Customer! :-)
- Jamie's
costume arrived about a week ago and she wore it this past weekend for
a pageant. It is stunning- it looks awesome on the floor and especially
under the lights. Everyone on Red Stars loves it. The heart cutout on the
back really shows when she spins. Her show twirl music is a medley of love
songs-and the costume is perfect. Great job, thanks so much. -- Jan Kaseta, Woburn, MA
- As
we discussed this morning, we LOVE the dress! They fit perfectly too.
I cannot believe that after all these years of hassling and haggling with
dressmakers we found the best dress for the least amount of hassle and via
long distance. … I cannot tell you how thrilled the girls were who tried
on the prototypes!
-- Robin Pickett / Team del Sol, CA
- Please
disregard my earlier email. Our costume arrived today, as you said it
would when we ordered it. I should not have doubted you. THANK
YOU< THANK YOU< THANK YOU for such an awesome costume and the GREAT
customer service you have always provided me. This is our third
costume from you and each time I have worked with you I have been given
outstanding service. We have another parent in our group that tried
SHOWOFFS for the first time last fall with a rush order and came away with
the same satisfaction I have found. The costumes are high quality and
we always get comments from other competitors. We sing-your-praises to
everyone whenever we can. --Rita Hensley, TN
- Anyhow...wanted you to know that the costumes made it on time, fit
perfectly...no need for alterations (how did you do it?), and are just
gorgeous. The twirlers, band directors, and parents alike all loved
them...so Showoff definitely has made a hit here at WVU!! I am really
going to enjoy seeing these costumes in front of our band throughout the
season...they are beautiful, and very classy!
We will definitely look forward to working with you all again (but with much
more advance notice!!). If I can ever provide a recommendation, please
do not hesitate to call. And...again...thank you so much for helping
me out on this. -- Paula Jo Stout, PhD, WVU Bands
- I just wanted to give you a word for word account of the dialog that
ensued when my daughter saw the costumes: > Oh, my god>
<pause>> Oh, my god> <pause>> Oh, my god>
<pause>> Oh, my god Mum,> <pause>> Oh, my god>
<pause>> That is the most beautiful costume I ever saw....(the solo
one)> Oh, my god> Oh, I can't wait to see the purple one....>
<pause>> Oh, my god> <pause>> Oh, my god> Oh, my
god> I am going to have the most beautiful costume at the
competition....> Oh, my god> Thank you so much Mum....> I can't
wait to put them on> Can I try them on now?
> Alright, you get the picture.....!!! She is absolutely in love
with both of them. She also said that everybody at the competition
will be looking at her because she has the most beautiful costumes!> To
think that I was worried that she wouldn't like them!!!> I guess we did
alright huh???!!!
> Thank you so very much for your input and suggestions, you have made
one little girl very, very happy!!!!
> Once I get pictures, I will send them to you.
> I woke up my daughter Saturday morning (we received them Friday) and
she opened her eyes and said "I love my costumes soooo much Mum".
Now she can't wait for the competition to wear them! -- Lisa Comtois,
NH
- We finally had the entire team on the ice yesterday since five to six of
our skaters have been ill for the past three weeks with this virus/flu
thing. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that the dresses are absolutely
beautiful and I really don't think any adjustments need to be made. Is
that a first? ... Hope things are going well and I appreciate how well
everything came out - they have worn them on the 5th and the 21st so far to
great compliments from all. -- Diana Loutzenhiser, United Skates, CA
- Everything was great!!!!!!!!!!!!! The senior dresses were a HUGE
hit....for the skaters and the crowd! Thank you again...they're
spectacular. I have to tell you...this is the first time in 6 years
that I haven't had to finish the dresses--you are my ANGEL
BUDDY!!!! :) We decided that these dresses would have
landed one of our former dressmakers in the Betty Ford Center...ha! ...Thank
you so much for making our lives so wonderful...Team del Sol is your biggest
FAN! -- Robin Ruhwedel, Team del So, CA
- It is really great that the dresses were so well received at Pacific Coast
and everyone who has seen them have been so complimentary and impressed with
how beautiful the dresses are. The team really looks like angels
flowing across the ice and it gives them such a wonderful light and airy
lilt to their skating - just what the program needed. They are having
a great season with two first places at Pacific Coast and on to Nationals in
March. -- Diana Loutzenhiser, United Skates, CA
- Hello, my name is Leigh-ann Moore and I was wondering if you could add my
groups website to your page. Our group is called the Showstoppers
Dance and Twirl Teams, and we have been ordering costumes from Showoff's
for years!! A few of our girls have just received their solo and
fancy strut costumes and they are SO BEAUTIFUL! You can plan on
having many more calls from our students to order more costumes!
Thank you so much for providing such beautiful, and quality work!
It is rare to find such dedication. -- Leigh-ann Moore, Wickliffe,
OH
- THE SENIOR COSTUMES ARE BEAUTIFUL.... The girls put them on last
night at practice. They are unbelievable.. They fit beautifully
and they make the girls all look wonderful. The color combination is
perfect and I love the flower in their hair. I am so excited.
Thank you for your patience with me and for coming up with a magnificent
design that is PERFECT....
See you soon, -- Linda Alford, Lauel, MD
- Guess who won the pre-teen grand national this year? If you guessed Olivia
Lynch you are right. ... Her picture will be on the cover of Drum
Major magazine this year in that wonderful showoffs solo costume. She also
placed top 5 in the pageant. Thanks for fixing her dress and making those
great costumes. I will be looking forward to this coming year and more great
costumes. Thanks so much for everything, -- Mary Lynch, PA
- I'm looking forward to working with you again! Our choreographer
came to work with us from Canada last weekend. He told us he was
working with an east coast team and they told him our senior long dresses
were the best at Nationals! :) -- Robin,
Team del Sol, CA
- Hi, First of all I would like to tell you how wonderful your costumes are.
I have gone to many baton competitions over the last ten years, and you
costumes are so eye catching and stunning we can spot them across the gym
floor. I finally ask one of the more professional twirler where it was
purchased and she gave me your name. After a small web search I found you. I
am interested in purchasing some costumes from you. ...thank you, --
Lori
- I picked up my daughter's costume on Wednesday (I'm sure you will remember
the coral and blue) and she just loves it! She was speechless for a
number of minutes when she got home and looked at it. The colors
look perfect on her...she is so pale and the coral and blue do wonders!
Can't give all of you enough compliments. I wanted to pass this on and
please let those who were involved in its construction know how pleased we
are. She can't wait for her baton friends to see it. -- Maureen Jekot,
Round Lake, IL

absolutely GORGEOUS!!!!! The red velvet is beautiful on my daughter and
it sparkles, sparkles, sparkles with all those rhinestones!!! Kristina
LOVES IT!!! It turned out exactly how she wanted and it fits perfectly -
I don't even have to adjust the elastic on the legs!! You guys did a
great job!!! I am sooo happy that I decided to have you do the stones because you did such
a perfect job and I really would not have been able to do them like that and I
really would not have had the time. It was well worth the extra money -
you saved me a lot of stress! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!!!!!! -- Donna
Reppucci, Tybgsboro, MA
- Thank you all very much. I ordered 2 costumes for my daughter, they

be ordering from you again in the future. Once again, Thank You for
doing such a fantastic job. -- Vicki Witmer

daughter's costume. Her first competition produced huge

awesome finished product from my poor sketches ;)...Thanks again for all you
did to help make her first solo experience a great one! Sincerely, -- TJ Hayes

I'll have to send photos. -- Joy Kenerly, Jesup, GA
- Elizabeth's costume arrived yesterday, and it is absolutely perfect! It
fits her to a tee, and the design is exactly what we wanted! It is
flattering without being too "naked". The KNIGHTS lettering came
out great. I know her band director will love it. You did a great job, and
we thank you. We'll send you a photo when we get it all trimmed out!!
Thanks again for ANOTHER great job! -- Susan Dodson

could do to get my daughter to take it off! It is absolutely
gorgeous.--Sheri, Georgia

coordinated with our school's marching band uniforms and had ordered one in
the summer. ... My costume came in time and fits like a glove. I am " sold"
on purchasing costumes from your company. Thanks for getting it to me in
time. It needed no adjustments, as promised. Keep up the good work! --
