Wardrobe

The OUDS Wardrobe is located in the Old Observatory in the University Science Parks opposite Keble College, i.e. the U-shaped building adjacent to building 26.

As the biggest student drama wardrobe in the country, the OUDS wardrobe is a fantastic resource for anybody involved in Oxford drama. It has thousands of items for hire ranging from a vast amount of ex-RSC medieval costume to a large modern selection, along with items from the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. All items are available to hire for between £1-5 per week, along with a deposit. Unfortunately, CHEQUES are the ONLY acceptable method of payment. If you do not have a chequebook, you will not be able to hire costumes.

During term, the wardrobe is open at the following times:

  • Tuesday – 1pm to 2pm
  • Wednesday – 1pm to 2pm (Bop Shop)
  • Thursday – 1pm to 2pm

Bop Shop

Costumes may also be hired for Fancy Dress occasions – such as Bops, parties and even Medieval Banquets . The cost is £5 per costume with a £10 deposit against damage.

The Bop Shop is open from 1pm to 2pm every Wednesday during term time and costumes must be returned on the following Monday to avoid incurring late fees.

Costume Group

Interested in costume? Signed up at the Fresher's Fair but not sure where to go from there? Maybe you've been in Oxford for a while already and never really got involved.

If so, now's your chance. The wardrobe team are in the process of creating a costume group as a source of help, advice and support for all those wanting to get involved. If you think it's something you'd be interested in joining, please email wardrobe@ouds.org

Hiring costumes

Please note that CHEQUES are the ONLY method of payment accepted. If you forget your chequebook, you will not be able to remove items from the wardrobe. In addition to the hire fee, you will also be required to leave a deposit against damages. Items that are returned late will also incur additional charges.

For full details of our terms and conditions or to arrange a meeting with one of the Wardrobe team, please contact us at wardrobe@ouds.org

We look forward to seeing you soon.
