costume fitting
Trying garments on
A costume fitting is a session where garments are tried on and adjusted to fit the wearer properly.
The term belongs primarily to theater, film, and television production, where actors visit the costume department to have their outfits tailored: I have a costume fitting at two o'clock.
Fittings may involve multiple rounds of adjustments before a final look is achieved.
