customer, costumer

Customer or customer means someone who buys goods or services, who spends money at a store or patronizes a business--
She's usually the first customer in line when there's a sale.
He's been a loyal customer for many years.

Costumer or costumer means someone who makes clothing for stage shows, movies, or masquerades--
Ask the costumer if she can make a hat to match the dress.
She works as a costumer, for one of the movie studios.

Now that you know that, you can say--
"A customer wants to know if our costumer can alter a gown for her."
