“On Broadway, even in the best seats, an orchestra pit separates you from the finery. At “Showstoppers!,” you can stand close enough to make out individual threads.”

- New York Times

Formerly the home of Modell’s, world-renown design firm, Thinc Design, has transformed the Times Square space into an immersive maze featuring more than 100 of the industry’s most beautiful and complex garments. As guests make their way through the exhibit, they will get to see up close the detail and craftsmanship typically only seen far away on stage or screen. Costume makers and experts will be on-site demonstrating their techniques and skills and interacting with guests, and multimedia elements will provide a rare opportunity to get a behind-the-scenes look at the process. This one-of-a-kind, immersive exhibition can only be seen in New York City’s vital Theatre District. All proceeds from the exhibition will raise money for the Costume Industry Coalition Recovery Fund, which continues to support one of the hardest hit sectors of the entertainment industry.

About the Costume Industry Coalition

United to advocate for the survival of the New York City custom costume industry.

Who We Are

● We are over 50 small, unique, independent businesses and artisans--in and around New York City--that create and supply costumes for the entertainment industry.  Standing alongside us are costuming colleagues from major NYC arts institutions.  

● We transform the Costume Designer’s two dimensional designs into custom, one-of-a-kind costumes for theatre, dance, opera, concerts, theme parks, cruise ships, ice shows, live entertainments and on television and film worldwide.

What We Do

● We employ hundreds of specialty artisans: pattern makers, cutters, stitchers, hand finishers, tailors, painters, sculptors, crafters and more.

● We infuse millions of dollars into the New York City economy (rent, payroll, taxes and other expenses).

● We support the Historic Garment District by buying materials—fabrics, trims, notions, equipment—from local vendors.
