Title: Wolfon's Costumes
Post by: Drudonn on June 02, 2010, 11:32:35 PM
After seeing "Wolfon's" mentioned somewhere in the garbing section, I decided to go and swing by--Wolfon's is a costume shop in Houston.  

It is *amazing* and if you are in the Houston area (or are willing to drive here), it's a great place to go for garb.

HOWEVER...

The owner, Robert Powell, told me that he's about to close the doors at that location, due to high cost of rent. He says he'll still be making garments, only he'll be working out of his house.  When I told him that I'd heard of him from this forum, he gave me his name, phone number, and email address for anyone who will be wanting his services (any advertising is good advertising).

Can you send msg me the email addy? He gave it to me the other day (so that I could come home and email him the link to the forum, but by the time I'd made it home from our crazy day, the kiddo had hidden the paper goodness-knows-where :(

It's too bad about the building, although as I was leaving the other day, i WAS thinking that it seemed like an awfully large space for what was in it-- costumes need a shop, imo, but not quite such a big one.

Oh how sad! I live right outside Houston, only about 30 minutes away, but I've never heard of this place. Do you know when he's closing?

He said probably by the middle of this next week.
