The Philadelphia Costume Co. shut its doors on May 1, 1998, ending an era on Walnut Street. Benjamin Morelli shows off a crown made for the Good Witch of the North in a production of "The Wizard of Oz" in 1998.and adorning them with puffed-up sleeves only saw tragedy.
, when the 70-year-old costume designer hung up his tape measure and closed the Philadelphia Costume Co. for good, he told The Inquirer: “It’s a dying art. ” Morelli wed his sweetheart, Tina, after serving in the Army in World War II. They moved into her mother’s West Philly basement, and during the day he designed window displays at Lit Bros. department store. But at night, he studied hat-making and pattern design and tinkered with cutting tables and sewing machines.
Morelli partnered with his new brother-in-law, Bob Oranzi , and won over string bands by cleverly adding working clocks and functional carousels to polished suits. As Jimmy Carter moved into the White House, the duo moved to Walnut Street and joined the real costume party. Those glory years would be defined by the shops clustered around 11th and Walnut Streets, including Waas Costume, Neubauer’s Formal Wear, Pierre’s Uniforms, and Miller Costumier.
This group also includes Van Horn’s , which grew out of a Walnut Street embroidery business, and is counted as the first theatrical costume firm in the United States.on Broadway and Euro Disney productions in Paris. Everything from showstopper gowns for posh ballrooms, to frock suits for opera’s Luciano Pavarotti .
By the mid-1980s, the shop was working with half a dozen string bands, accounting for at least half of its yearly revenue. The standard mummer’s costume, consisting of hat, shirt, jacket, vest, trousers, and possibly a cape, ranged from $150 to $800 . The shop employed designers, cutters, drapers, tailors, and seamstresses, counting 17 employees in its heyday.
But by the 1990s, he was the only shop left on Walnut, and most of his workers had died or retired. And Morelli couldn’t take on the extra work himself. I am a programming editor who helps oversee The Inquirer's homepage, alert notifications, and social media channels. You'll also see me regularly writing about cheesesteaks, Philly history, and the Jersey Shore.
