While all ‘our’ Minnesota High School dance teams are deep into your winter competitive season, culminating in Sectionals and then the big MSHSL tournament at Target Center in downtown Minneapolis, Satin Stitches continues to design and create unique team uniforms for other teams across the country. And we also continue to design new and exciting customizable Web Styles that can be purchased immediately by local or national teams.
At Satin Stitches, we thrive on the performance accomplishments of our clients. We hope to see all of your fabulous routines this season. We know that you keep improving your moves, in hopes of making the final cut in February. Sequins, rhinestones and lace are everywhere, along with uniquely themed costumes. Of course we have our favorites, but we still want to see every team’s routine, so please send us photos and links to videos!
As you strive for better and better performances, we know you have your eye towards your competitors and continue to take mental notes on what you like and what you don’t like, in order to incorporate new ideas into your themed costumes for NEXT season. In addition to keeping tabs on Minnesota state HS costumes, I personally travel around the country and meet with other High School teams to see what costume features are currently ‘in vogue’ in their location. Yes, every location has their ‘own’ style in choreography and in their costuming.
At Satin Stitches, we know that budgets are ALWAYS a huge consideration when designing and ordering new team costumes and uniforms. Many of you know that Satin Stitches offers the best pricing (biggest discounts) of our season when you are just ending your season.
We have offered our ‘Early Bird Discounts’ that start in February and continue until mid-May for many years. Hopefully you are planning to take advantage of these HUGE discounts that are always applied ON TOP OF our year-round Quantity and Prepayment Discounts. If you are hosting a successful invitational, you may have already earned the funds for your next year’s uniforms. Ordering NOW gets you so much more bang for your buck!
We offer our ‘Early Bird Discounts’ to promote costume ordering when you aren’t thinking about ordering, so that we can keep our talented sewing staff employed year round. What’s in it for you? You can get the jump on next year’s season, AND save lots of money on your uniforms!
Our Satin Stitches team, here in suburban Coon Rapids, includes myself (Deborah Nelson) and two additional professional costume/fashion designers who work directly with you to develop your perfect new look. We offer advice on what can work the best for your team, based on decades of custom dance team design experience. And based on what we are seeing this season. Besides the design, we feel that the fit and construction are very important to insure the best results for your team’s performance. Our tagline is ‘Designed for a Sensational Performance!’ and this is what we strive for.
With decades of experience with dance team costumes (we will be starting our 40th season this spring) we know nothing in the dance world is static. We continue to update our construction methods and modify our sizing for the best results for our dance teams. We challenge you to discover the ‘Satin Stitches difference’ in our design, fit and workmanship of our team uniforms and solo costumes.
We strive to fit all of our client’s needs, sizes and now especially your budgets with our pre-designed styles (which are all totally customizable) offered in our Web Store at http://shop.satinstitches.com. We continue to update these styles which can be ordered in virtually any fabric combination. And yes, they can be ordered in all of our sizes (available in Short, Medium and Long lengths), including child sizes and extended Plus sizes). A special Online option is that we offer sketches (where we can fill in the fabric color choices that you are thinking of, so you can ‘see’ your choices).
Enjoy the remainder of your 2016-2017 competitive season and strive to be your best!
