The Visit Costume Designs

I pitched successfully for the role of Costume Designer after a competitive design process. I then worked from the script adapted by the Director, David O’Shea, and conducted my research through moodboards creation, character analysis, and exploring Surrealist, Bauhaus and German expressionist art. I considered colour palette, silhouette, and fabric. To help curate this story world, I discussed ideas with Eve Stewart, who was selected as Set Designer, as we had visions that worked well together in terms of style, mood and colour. As it was a sourced show, I investigated ways that costumes could be made to look eerie and match the tone of the play by looking at designers including Nakamachi, Rei Kawakubo (who use flat assemblage techniques challenging notions of traditional ‘western’ construction), Martin Margeila (who breaks apart garments to expose their inner workings), and Yohji Yamamoto who also explores this ‘Deconstruction Style’.
