Silver Leaf Costumes, an artist-run company, started with the dreams of a fantasy-obsessed young girl as she visited the boutique stores with her grandmother. As she grew older, Laura Elliott, the owner and fashion designer, traveled to Europe and was inspired by the art, architecture, and history around her. She started Silver Leaf Costumes as a Renaissance Festival booth in 2001 and quickly expanded to faires and conventions around the US.

Silver Leaf provides quality, historically-inspired clothing, with corsets, full and high low skirts, men's ware, and a host of other items. Through custom designs, they take great pride in their products, handmade from start to finish. Using designer fabrics and hand-tooled leather, they have created a look that is highly recognizable and synonymous with quality and creativity.

"Everything fits perfectly and looks exactly as I was hoping it would. Excellent craftsmanship. I'll definitely be ordering again!" - Seth Wood on Apr 28, 2018, 5 out of 5 stars

"So grateful for this custom order! Silver Leaf was a pleasure to work with! They were always quick to respond and made this custom order an absolute pleasure to coordinate! I love the finished product I received! The fabric is light and breathable while having great colors that pop. I love the versatility of this skirt, it lends itself to several different looks! Cannot recommend this shop enough!" - Elaine Weyrick on Apr 22, 2018, 5 out of 5 stars

Cover Image

REQUIRED. Select one image to be used as your cover image, which will appear on the category and location pages. Square images work best. Important: Until you add a cover image, your listing will not appear on category or location pages.

Highlighted Images

Please select up to three images to be highlighted in the header of your portfolio. Note that our templates are designed to be responsive, which means that these images will crop differently depending on the viewer's browser size and orientation -- on mobile, images map crop horizontally. On huge desktops, they may crop vertically. That's as intended, although it may result in some headless couples depending on your photo composition.

How I cater to offbeat weddings

This is one of the most important fields on your vendor listing! Our readers love to feel special and like you understand the issues that are important to them -- stuff like LGBTQ support, gender-neutral contracts, and inclusive sizing. They also love hearing about how offbeat YOU are, so be sure to mention any of your own quirks as a way to relate to folks.
