Hi tuhitu-ga,
I have found several costume designers for you below, as well as a
few stock costume merchants. You don't mention prices or quality but
I'm quite sure custom costumes will be rather costly.

design from scratch, or can work as a contract shop, building your own

This is a directory of freelance costume makers (theatrical). You may
have a lot of luck here:

====================================================
I realize you asked for costume designers and makers, but these sites
seems to have a lot of pre-made costumes that may interest you.

Other Ideas
====================================================
Since most of the custom costume makers I found APEAR to be somewhat
expensive, I suggest you go to Google and search local businesses and
tailors, for better prices. If you?d like to post your city here, as
an Answer Clarification, I?d be happy to perform the search for you.
://www.google.com and select LOCAL
Enter custom made costumes in the ?What? box, and your city in the ?Where? box.
You could try the terms custom Halloween costumes as well, or
custom made clothing or dressmakers
Consider calling a local college Theatrical Arts department, or if
you have a small theater group, call them and ask for local
recommendations.
?It was important to me that the dress be unique and not store-bought,
so I let her choose the dress color (green). I also suggested that we
split the costs to make it: I'd pay for the fabric if she'd pay the
dressmaker. She agreed and we headed to the fabric store.
I spent $90 on fabric (lace and satin), $20 on buttons, and $10 on
muslin (a cheap fabric the dressmaker would need to make a mock-up of
the dress). My mom paid the dressmaker (and included two fittings?one
with the muslin mock-up and one with the actual dress). We had enough
fabric left over for my mom to make me a purse and matching tie for my
date?

If this is not the answer you were hoping for, please do not close
this question by rating. Please request an Answer Clarification first.
This will allow me to work with you to find the answer you want. I
will say that costume designers and makers is a hard topic to locate!
