Spring Movie Wardrobe Sale

Save the Date!

CAFTCAD is excited to announce the much anticipated Spring Movie Wardrobe Sale for Saturday May 23rd,
(no, it's not the long weekend- we checked!)

As our last 2 successful events, there will be members of CAFTCAD, Costume Industry Businesses and Individuals, and Vintage Dealers selling clothing and items from past productions and other wares to the general public. Clothing, both contemporary and vintage, accessories, fabrics, books, and wardrobe supplies will be offered at this one day event.

PLEASE NOTE that the sale will NOT be taking place at 629 Eastern Ave as it has in the past. The location is still to be confirmed.

Vendor Packs will be sent out in the next few weeks so please let us know if you're interested in participating in this sale.

Can't wait to shop!

CAFTCADEMY

Our first CAFTCADEMY seminar series was a huge success!


Held at Filmport from March 6th to 8th, the seminars covered topics such as reserach, illustration, measurements and millinery. We kicked off the weekend with a presentation by world-renowned cinematographer Derek Vanlint (Alien, Dragonslayer) followed by a wine and cheese.

Please enjoy these photos from the weekend and stay tuned for the next CAFTCADEMY!
