Hey thought i'd start posting some non picture/work posts..
At the moment i'm in my second year at the university of Huddersfield. Costume design is such a wide scope as we combine it with textiles, which gives us an even wider branch. But what i'm particularly interested in is costumes for dance and musical theatre. I think they are so beautiful and amazing, then when they move it just creates this beautiful picture.
I'm due to do a placement year next year, which my course offers luckily, and i am so excited to get out there and work in the industry. I would love to be apart of a touring company or a dance program, but anything would help build my skills.
I am currently still working on my Gormenghast project, but this term we get to make our chosen design. Which is going to be so much fun, but so much hard work. I'm looking forward to seeing my design come to life and think it will be a good challenge to run away with. I will post pictures of the final costume when i've finished it in april!
Thanks and hope you are enjoying my work so far!

Construction (year 2) 3 week project based on circles.
We were told to make anything with circles in it, so i made a dress with a circle in the back, circle shoulders and a full circle skirt.

Project: Temple Newsam Farm
We were given a live project to make costumes (for children) for Temple Newsam Farm in Leeds. We were each given a different costume item to make, i had to make a 19th century dairy workers long skirt and full apron. I then made two mens scarfs.
