Custom Tango Dresses · Made-to-Measure by Mimi Pinzón
Your body. Your vision. Our hands. Made-to-measure Argentine tango dresses, handcrafted in Buenos Aires.
The Art of the Custom Tango Dress
A custom tango dress is more than a garment — it is a portrait. At Mimi Pinzón, every made-to-measure tango dress begins with you: your measurements, your story, your stage. Then it passes through the hands of Argentine artisans who have spent decades shaping silk, lace and lamé into pieces that move with their wearer.
Whether you need a one-of-a-kind stage tango dress for a tour, a salon dress tailored to your milonga style, or a competition piece designed for the world championship floor, our atelier can build it for you — from sketch to delivery.
Made-to-measure production time: 3–4 weeks. Shipping: FedEx International Priority, 5–9 business days door-to-door worldwide.
Three Ways to Order Made-to-Measure
1. Existing Design — Your Measurements
Choose any design from our Stage, Salon or Sexy Glam collections and we will make it to your exact measurements. You can adjust silhouette, neckline depth, hem length, sleeve style, embellishment placement and fabric color within the design's possibilities.
Best for: dancers who fell in love with a specific Mimi Pinzón design and want a perfect personal fit.
2. Customized Variation — Inspired by Our Design
Take one of our pieces as your starting point and let us redesign it with you. Different fabric, different embroidery, different cut. We co-design with you over WhatsApp, send fabric photos, sketches and previews until your dress is exactly what you imagined.
Best for: performers and soloists who need a unique piece nobody else will wear.
3. Original One-of-a-Kind — Designed With You From Zero
For tango companies, soloists, championship competitors and stage productions, we design original pieces from scratch. Send us your concept, your music, your choreography — we will craft a dress that becomes part of the performance.
Best for: professional productions, tango companies, championship competitors.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a made-to-measure tango dress take?
Standard production time is 3–4 weeks from confirmation of measurements. Express production (1–2 weeks) is available for an additional fee, depending on the design complexity.
How accurate is the fit if I send my own measurements?
Extremely accurate. We send a detailed measurements guide with photos showing exactly where to measure. Hundreds of dancers worldwide have ordered made-to-measure dresses without ever meeting us in person, and our fit success rate is very high.
Can you copy a dress I saw on Instagram or in a show?
If the dress is your own design (or a public-domain inspiration) we can design something inspired by it. We do not reproduce copyrighted designs from other ateliers, but we can co-design a piece that captures the same spirit with original Mimi Pinzón DNA.
How much does a custom tango dress cost?
Made-to-measure pricing depends on design, fabric and embellishments. Stage couture pieces range from premium to haute couture pricing. Salon dresses are more accessible. Contact us for a personalized quote.
Can I order a custom dress for the Tango World Championship?
Yes. Many competitors order their championship dresses from us. We are the Official Sponsor of the Festival y Mundial de Tango. Plan ahead — we recommend ordering at least 6–8 weeks before competition.
Do you ship custom dresses worldwide?
Yes, via FedEx International Priority. See full shipping details →
What if the dress doesn't fit when it arrives?
Made-to-measure dresses are non-returnable, but we work closely with you during measurements to ensure a perfect fit. In the rare case of significant fit issues, we work with you to find a solution — always.
