Titanic The Musical Costumes – Full Show Hire from Thespis
Available to Hire from May 2026

 

Launching May 2026, our complete Titanic The Musical costume collection delivers authentic 1912 Edwardian wardrobe for principals, crew and all passenger classes. From White Star Line officer uniforms to steerage realism and period life jackets, Thespis provides full-show continuity designed for impact, scale and choral staging. Built to the high production standards you expect from our studio.

 

 

We are currently building a complete large-scale Titanic: The Musical wardrobe package, crafted to the exceptional standards you expect from Thespis Theatrical Costumiers Ltd.

Although we have not yet supplied this production, we already hold an extensive collection of authentic early 1900s garments, including RMS Titanic officer uniforms, White Star Line peaked caps with accurate badges, period engineer and crew wear, and a wide range of Edwardian passenger costumes.

 

This is a work in progress and will be fully available by the end of May 2026. This page will be updated regularly as studio photography becomes available.

Authentic 1912 Period Detailing

Set aboard the RMS Titanic, which sank on 15 April 1912, the musical demands precision in period presentation.

Every costume in our Titanic collection reflects the Edwardian era (circa 1912), with meticulous attention to silhouette, tailoring, fabric selection, trims, rank braid and insignia, and the clear distinction between First, Second and Third Class.

 

 

When you hire from Thespis, you do not simply look the part — you achieve a cohesive, production-ready aesthetic across the entire cast.

Our reputation for quality, cleanliness and authenticity is second to none.

About Titanic: The Musical

With music and lyrics by Maury Yeston and a book by Peter Stone, Titanic opened on Broadway in 1997 and won five Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

Unlike the cinematic retelling, this production focuses on ambition, engineering achievement, social class divide and human sacrifice. The score draws on the English choral tradition of Elgar and Vaughan Williams, creating a sweeping, emotionally resonant soundscape that drives the narrative forward.

The musical leaves audiences with one haunting truth: over 1,500 people perished while 450 lifeboat seats remained empty.
