ABOUT US
Wesley Tang Designs
Wesley Tang Designs is a dancewear and dance costume brand founded by Wesley Tang. He has been trained by many industry professionals and has been fortunate to work for a handful of dance costume designers in his past. As a younger designer in the dance costume industry, he constantly brings new ideas through the analyzed adoption of current runway trends in both high fashion and sportswear. A wealth of experience is brought from his dance performance background, both live on stage and in front of the camera in TV shows, movies, and commercials. These performance experiences have made him realize how greatly a costume can affect the overall quality, and feeling that a performance offers. This is a brand created by a dancer for dancers to enjoy for generations to come.
Dancewear
Wesley noticed a gap in the market for fashion oriented dancewear garments that were crafted specifically for dancers. By addressing the dancer’s needs and offering the most flattering cuts available, our brand hopes to make strides in the market based upon our dedication to the highest quality of production, fabric selection, design aesthetic, and most importantly the fit.
As a dancer and fashion designer, he brings his first hand experience into creating garments that stand out. Even when working with a monochromatic palate, interest is created through textures, cutouts, and fabric manipulations to produce stunning pieces that will be sure to set a dancer apart in any classroom or dance convention. By keeping production local in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, we made sure our products are manufactured in a sustainable manner, promoting Canadian design and craftsmanship.
Costume Design
Our costume design department is dedicated to innovation and creativity. By combining premium fabrics, impeccable craftsmanship, and a timely completion to follow any given deadline, we make sure to bring any choreographer or dancer’s vision to life. We consistently deliver a product that not only accentuates, but also flatters each individual dancer impeccably. All the designs that are created strive to elevate the dancer’s overall performance on stage, crafting suitable and original designs that push the boundaries of fashion. We offer services in hand painting both matte and with sparkles, rhinestonining, airbrushing, and custom fabric dyeing/ombre. Attention to detail is one of our company’s most important core values, making sure that everything from the design to the construction of the garments is done with absolute precision. We are able to carry out any costume design that can possibly be envisioned, thus the boundaries are the lengths of one’s imagination and creativity. We have been extremely privileged to costume dancers set by award winning choreographers such as: Travis Wall, Sonya Tayeh, Stacey Tookey, Nick Lazzarini, Jason Parsons, Lauren Adams, Hani Abaza and Jaci Royal just to name a few!
