  • Great question! The name Pickle Boss is simple—Pickle is my nickname, and, well… I’m the boss! (LOL!) 

    But what truly makes Pickle Boss special isn’t just the name—it’s the handmade craftsmanship behind every single piece. No mass production, no factory lines—just high-quality, one-of-a-kind designs made with passion and precision.

    From show-stopping stage costumes to dazzling dancewear, custom bikinis, and even adorable pet outfits, each creation is crafted by me, myself, and I. I’m always pushing my designs, materials, and techniques to bring you stunning, durable, and uniquely YOU pieces.

    So when you wear Pickle Boss, you’re not just rocking a brand—you’re wearing art, creativity, and a whole lotta love!

  • At Pickle Boss, nearly every piece is a one-of-a-kind creation, designed and handcrafted with passion, precision, and a whole lot of Canadian pride!

    • No mass production – Just high-quality craftsmanship with a personal touch.

    • Exclusive designs – Orders over $300 come with a never-duplicated piece.

    • Custom & creative – From stage costumes to dancewear and bikinis, tailored to you.

    • Made in Canada – Supporting local talent with top-quality materials.

    • Client-focused – Your vision, your style, your perfect outfit.

    Since 2018, Pickle Boss has been all about originality, durability, and self-expression. Ready to stand out? Let’s create something amazing!

  • At Pickle Boss, we create exotic wear for the club, stage, and beach, as well as custom costumes for performance, Halloween, and even the occasional pet hoodie, jacket, or costume! 

    Your imagination is our only limitation—whether you have a bold vision or need some inspiration, we’re here to help. Check out our Look Book / Collections Gallery or chat with our designer to bring your dream outfit to life!


  • Yes! While most Pickle Boss designs are custom-made, we often have a few select, ready-to-buy pieces available. These are typically bikinis, but sometimes we get inspired to create a one-of-a-kind piece just waiting for the perfect owner.

  • Yes, Yes, and Yes!  We’re happy to recommend options, but ultimately, you’re in control. Whether you have a specific vision or need a little guidance, we’ll work with you to create a piece that’s uniquely yours!

  • Most of the fabric I use for bikinis, costumes, exotic dancewear, and stage attire would typically be stretch fabric to allow for comfort, flexibility, and a great fit. Common types include:

    • Spandex/Lycra – Perfect for swimwear and form-fitting costumes.

    • Four-Way Stretch Fabric – Moves in all directions for maximum flexibility.

    • Mesh & Power Mesh – Adds breathability and a sleek look.

    • Stretch Velvet – Great for luxurious, eye-catching pieces.

    • Leather – Durable and stylish, often used for bold, structured looks but lacks stretch.

    • Pleather – A flexible, stretch-friendly alternative to leather, offering a sleek look with added comfort.

    • Vinyl – High-shine and eye-catching, perfect for creating dramatic, statement-making pieces.

  • We offer an extensive palette, from classic primary colours like red, blue, and yellow to more customised hues and special finishes such as metallics, glitter, and unique blends. We work with you to achieve the perfect shade for your design.

  • For garments designed for people, we typically require measurements for neck circumference, shoulder width, bust/chest, waist, hips, sleeve length, arm circumference, back length, and inseam or leg length. 

    For pet costumes, we ask for measurements such as neck circumference, chest circumference, and back length, plus any additional dimensions if needed.


  • We recommend using a flexible tape measure and following our measurement guidelines closely. For the best fit, measure each area snugly but comfortably. Detailed instructions are provided on our Custom Order form to help ensure accuracy.

  • Since every design is custom-made, production times vary. Typically, once your design is finalised and full payment is received, your piece is completed within 2-4 weeks. 

    However, please note that seasonal increases in orders may delay the start of your order. In such cases, your designer will inform you if there is a delay and provide an estimated timeline for when we can begin work on your piece. 

    We serve customers on a first-come, first-served basis, but we also offer a rush service for those who need their order within a specific timeframe. Please be aware that rush orders incur an extra cost, as they often require overtime work to complete on schedule.


  • Costs depend on your customisations and design complexity. Many items are priced within a range, while a small selection of ready-made pieces have fixed prices. 

    • Bikinis typically range in price between $100 and $500

    • Costumes for People range in price between $200 and $2500

    • Costumes for Pets range in price between $50 and $350

    • Exotic Dancewear range in price between $80 and $500

    • Stage & Show Attire range in price between $600 and $2500

  • A standard custom order is a unique, handcrafted piece made just for you, but similar styles or designs may be created for other clients.

    An exclusive one of a kind design (available for orders over $500) is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece—once it’s made for you, it will never be recreated for anyone else. It’s truly 100% yours, ensuring a completely original look that no one else will ever have!

  • For custom orders over $500, your design is exclusively created just for you. We work closely with you through every step of the process, ensuring that every detail is tailored to your vision—so no two pieces are ever alike.

  • The sky’s the limit! We encourage you to be as imaginative and bold as you’d like. Whether you have intricate ideas, unconventional elements, or specific themes in mind, our designer is excited to collaborate with you to bring your vision to life.

  • Absolutely! Whether you need a show-stopping stage costume, a competition outfit, or something bold for a special event, we’ve got you covered. Every piece is designed to stand out, move with you, and make a statement!

  • Yes!  If your dance team, performance group, or squad wants a cohesive, custom look, we can create matching or coordinated designs that reflect your style while keeping each piece unique. Let’s bring your team’s vision to life!

  • You bet!  We can create a custom look so your furry friend can match your outfit in style. From fun and playful designs to bold statement pieces, we love bringing pet fashion to the next level!

    Every pet outfit is designed with comfort, fit, and personality in mind, ensuring your four-legged companion looks adorable and feels great. Whether it’s for a photo shoot, event, Halloween, or just everyday fun, we’ll make sure your pet’s look is as fabulous as yours!

  • Absolutely. We welcome in-person consultations in Edmonton by appointment. Please contact us to schedule a meeting and discuss your ideas further.

  • We proudly ship across Canada using Canada Post. Local pickup is also available in Edmonton, Alberta if that suits your preference.

  • Each custom order requires a 50% deposit (which includes taxes and shipping) to begin work. The remaining 50% is due upon completion, prior to shipping or pickup.

  • Absolutely! Pickle Boss bikinis are safe to wear in both the pool and ocean. To keep them looking their best, rinse them with fresh water after use to help prevent colour fading.

  • You betcha! Pickle Boss is 100% Canadian-owned, and our clothing line is proudly Made in Canada. From the first sketch to the final stitch, we bring true Canadian craftsmanship, quality, and innovation to every piece.

    I’m a proud Canadian clothing designer who grew up in Ontario and now calls Edmonton, Alberta home. Pickle Boss is all about embracing that bold, sexy, unapologetic, and fun-loving Canadian spirit—because why settle for anything less than the best, eh?

    When you wear Pickle Boss, you're not just repping a brand—you're repping Canadian excellence and pride.
