The Uniform Department at Western Costume now resides next door in the Annex, a newly renovated 20,000 square-foot space dedicated exclusively to uniforms. Visit the Annex to find any uniform to meet your needs; we specialize in military, police, and federal uniforms, and you can find uniforms to outfit fire departments, prisons, post offices, restaurants, and more. Our stock is continually updated to reflect uniform changes, and our staff strives to ensure that every uniform rented from Western Costume, whether period or contemporary, is accurate from head to toe.

The Collection

Dating from the 1820s to the 1980s, The Collection is Western Costume’s premiere collection of costumes. This incredible asset has been curated over many years by combining a number of celebrated private collections into a single space. The collections of Dorothy Weaver, Patty Norris, Helen Larson, and most recently, the Dykeman-Young Collection, all reside in The Collection, in a dedicated climate-controlled area separate from our main stock. Both men’s and women’s clothing and accessories are available in The Collection and have been seen in countless award-winning films and television shows, including CHICAGO (2002) and MAD MEN (2007-2015).

Western Costume Company may be best known for costuming film and television, but we have been a major source for theaters since our founding. Western Costume provided costumes for nearly every season of the Los Angeles Civic Light Opera from its opening in 1938, costumed productions at the Mayan Theater, and academic productions for USC and other schools. This legacy of theatrical costuming continues, from Broadway to your local high school. Whatever your theater costuming needs, Western has you covered.
