GRUESOME PLAYGROUND INJURIES: 1980's Dance Dress

A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY: 1930s Dress

This silk 1930s dress for A BRIGHT ROOM CALLED DAY required lots of patients and careful stitching especially for the 6 godets on the skirt! The original ground of the fabric was off white and the flowers were a slightly brighter green. I dipped the fabric teal which darkened the ground and deepened the tone of the flowers.

Draped in Muslin

MARISOL: Wings

The Angel's wings for MARISOL are constructed from dyed muslin, rigilene boning, steel boning, flexible ethafoam rod, sheer fabrics and feathers. The shoulder pads of the harness have a Fosshape base covered with shoulder pads and then brown vinyl. The harness straps are the same brown vinyl backed with nylon web belting. To keep the wings from bending backwards I also added a few secretly placed plastic buckles.

IN THE NEXT ROOM or THE VIBRATOR PLAY

This is one of Mrs. Daltry's looks for IN THE NEXT ROOM or THE VIBRATOR PLAY. We decided to use both the right and wrong side of the jacket fabric to achieve the contrast from front to side front pieces. The original ground of the fabric was off white but I dyed it green. The skirt and over skirt are made from many many yards of taffeta.

EURYDICE Distressing

For EURYDICE our designer found some fantastic old garments from stock that were modified for Little Stone's costume. To achieve this look, I used a serious amount of fabric dye to distress the garments and added some lace to the overdress and the underdress.

ROUGH MAGIC Drag Queens

The tulle Drag Queens dresses were built to hide armor worn underneath. On stage the Drag Queens transform into sword wielding Furries! The yards and yards of tulle covered the armor until the big reveal.
