Freelance Event Dressers available now

A Dresser is the backstage professional who makes sure costumes, outfits, or wardrobe changes happen smoothly and on time.

They’re the ones ensuring performers, presenters or talent look exactly as they should when they step onto stage, whether that’s a simple jacket swap or a full costume change in under 30 seconds.

What They Do

Dressers prepare wardrobes before the show – steaming clothes, checking sizes, repairing buttons, and laying everything out ready for quick changes.

During the live event, they assist talent with dressing, help them into complicated costumes, and make sure every piece is ready in the wings. They’re also responsible for keeping wardrobe areas tidy, labelled and organised.

When something goes wrong – a broken zip, a missing accessory – a Dresser is the one with safety pins, tape or spares at the ready. Their work is fast, discreet and often invisible to the audience.

Skills They Bring

  • Speed – quick changes without panic
  • Attention to detail – every outfit perfect on stage
  • Organisation – wardrobe areas kept tidy and prepared
  • Problem-solving – fixing issues instantly backstage

Why You Need a Dresser

Without a Dresser, costume changes can become chaotic and stressful. With one, presenters and performers feel supported, confident and ready to go.

If you have any events coming up that have multiple costume or outfit changes, you may want to consider the peace of mind a Dresser would bring you. 

In short: a Dresser keeps your talent looking flawless under pressure.
