'The Picture of Dorian Gray' Designs (Personal Interpretation-Dream World)
These designs are from my collection for my personal interpretation of The Picture of Dorian Gray. These costumes are for the scenes in the production that are seen through the eyes of Dorian's imagination.
I am a Costume Designer and Embroiderer and I'm currently between both Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire and Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. This blog is a showcase of my work, showing the different elements of my processes from sketchbook, through to design and final constructed costume. My main aim in creating a costume is the portrayal of character. I am particularly passionate about taking characters from historical productions such as the works of Shakespeare and putting a completely new twist on the character. Due to my embroidery background, I also enjoy working with contemporary embroidery to embellish my costumes.
"Costume can say things that words cannot, and can create effects that a speaker would never equal." -David Mayer
