Costume Maker

Costume Maker is an app by the Cleveland Play House that allows you to select an actor (or two) and place them against a backdrop and configure their costume in an almost infinite number of combinations. The final composition can be saved, emailed, and even shared across social media!

Please note: This this app was developed for iPad but also works on larger screen iOS devices - some smaller phones might require a stylus for selections.

-- Developed in Partnership with the United States Department of Education.

We don't exaggerate when we say an almost infinite number of combinations. For each piece of clothing there are 9 choices (plus an option not to have one), in addition to it's original color it can be colored in one of 24 different ways which creates the possibility of 226 options for each clothing layer.

With 6 different clothing layers that creates 133,244,912,166,976 (one hundred thirty-three trillion, two hundred forty-four billion, nine hundred twelve million, one hundred sixty-six thousand, nine hundred seventy-six) costume combinations for each gender!

These costumes (per gender) can be placed on an actor of one of 6 different races resulting in a possible 799,469,473,001,856 (seven hundred ninety-nine trillion, four hundred sixty-nine billion, four hundred seventy-three million, one thousand, eight hundred fifty-six) combinations of costumed actors per gender.

These actors can be placed on the stage in 6 different combinations (single or double) for a possible 4,796,816,838,011,136 (four quadrillion, seven hundred ninety-six trillion, eight hundred sixteen billion, eight hundred thirty-eight million, eleven thousand, one hundred thirty-six) stagings!

And with 11 different backdrops to choose from that means there are 52,764,985,218,122,496(fifty-two quadrillion, seven hundred sixty-four trillion, nine hundred eighty-five billion, two hundred eighteen million, one hundred twenty-two thousand, four hundred ninety-six) possible outcomes in the Costume Maker!*

*Some clothing items obscure other clothing items and not all combinations will be as exciting as others - but these are all the possible combinations possible in the app!
