Atelier Spatz started in 2013 with Jo’s own kids growing up with vintage costumes that had been in her family for generations. Missing from the seafarer’s chest of costumes in her parents’ attic was a bird cape and so she made one. Over the past ten years, they have been joined by everything from snow queens, ringmasters and superheroes to sea horses, fairies and pirate costumes.

Jo has made costumes for children’s museums like the Young V&A in London as well as children’s theatre groups, ballet dancers and film. All costumes are made by hand in Luxembourg and ship to clients worldwide.

Did you know that costumes make fantastic Christmas gifts for children? They spark creativity, encourage imaginative play, and provide endless hours of entertainment. Unlike typical toys, costumes allow kids to step into the shoes of their favourite characters and great lifetime memories – whether it’s a pirate prince, a snow owl, or a beloved storybook hero. Or maybe you want your kids to be a band of nutcrackers and a sugar plum fairy dancing her way through the festive season.

A costume gift is more than just an outfit: it’s a gateway to adventure, self-expression, and fun memories your children will cherish for years.
