Thank
you for checking out my site. I'm
Brad, and Outrageous Outfits is my
dream.
I love superheroes,
and ever since my first pair of
Superman
under-roos. I've loved to dress up.
When I was a kid, I cut up my bed
sheets to make capes for all my
stuffed animals. My mom, of course,
was angry but my awesome Grandmother
started to give me scraps of fabric
and taught me to sew on her old
1950's singer sewing machine.
By high school I was
making full on superhero costumes
out of sweatsuits at first, then I
started to master spandex. In
college I was making costumes for
classmates for Halloween, The Rocky
Horror Picture Show, Renaissance
Festival, S.C.A., and Comic
Conventions. I earned my Bachelors
Degree in Graphic Design and always
thought I'd be a
Graphic
Artist, but I never lost my passion
for sewing; family and friends
always asked me why I didn't just do
the sewing full time.
When I met my partner
(who loves comics and Halloween as
much as I do), I really got into it
and started mastering the craft.
I've
made hundreds of costumes, though
sadly, never thought to get good
pictures of them until recently, and
three years ago started sewing
professionally as a seasonal job.
This year I am proud
to make the move to fulltime
year-round costume-making Guru!!
Enjoy the
pictures I do have (you'll see a
little of my Graphic Design flair)
and let me know what Outrageous
Outfits can make for you.
Thank you, and have
Fun!
