ABOUT

I am a costume designer. Whilst at work I see many things - fascinating and inspiring; the benefits of my profession.

Details not destined to make the cut.
Tools of the trade, research, materials.
Things out of context.
Things I collect and may use someday.
Fabrics, prints, articles of clothing.
Trimmings, equipment, workplaces.

An additional interest in workwear, the pleasure of being able to guess at a person's occupation or background by their dress. Recreating this, realistically or otherwise but always believably is, after all, the job.
