Costume Designer & Costume Technician

  • Pattern Drafting
  • Hand & Machine Sewing
  • Fabric Dying & Painting
  • Garment Alteration

To complement the Leading Player's costume design, which stuck between a 1400s jester and a 1920s Emcee with a contemporary flair, I drafted and sewed the whole suit out of stretch velvet and stuffed the tails and collar. The cumberbund was also made from scratch. I also tackled a host of other tasks like combining two shirts into one, making several skirts and shirts, sewing a lace ruff, sewing sleeves onto and reworking the neckline of a dress, and tacking a lot of ribbon in place.
