About Me

My photo
London
I am a recent graduate with a degree in Fashion Design. I have now pursued into costume design and creation, with consideration into make-up and (maybe) wig-work. A costume has a whole life story behind it. I aim to portray entirely accurate historical and cultural references and develop these details into personal characters all of which the audience can understand and in some cases relate to. The importance of costume is simply inexplicable.

"I do hope we will be seeing Hamlet's sensational tennis outfit, complete with ruff, on the Wimbledon courts next summer."
Sarah Hemming, Financial Times 2011


Finally the professional photos are out...
In this photo I was responsible for the making of the tennis outfit, pretty happy with the outcome :)

This project was great fun, very intense and hectic but I certainly learnt a hell of a lot about theatre and how it's all done. I was a costume assistant for this production of which I worked very closely with the costume supervisor Sukie Kirk. She was fantastic and idyllic to work for and provided me with so much support and encouragement, I can't thank her enough.
