Does anyone have a dress maker they can recommend?  I have an idea for a dress for the light entertainment category.  Need more than bodice + skirt.

I've used a gal named Tina for all my skating dresses...she's great to work with, and is fairly speedy (4-6 weeks.) She's been great with making customized dresses for me and has a very wide selection of catalogue dresses you can customize with colors, styles, addons, etc. very reasonable price wise too. Check her out, tinaskating.com :-)
Good luck finding a dress maker!

Stephanie Handler in NYC can make anything - but she's pricy and detailed costumes require fittings.  I know several adults who are willing to fly to NYC for a few days, though, to meet with her.  She's that good.
