In the next few days I am going to be interviewing a professional film costume designer from Europe for the upcoming Historical Costume Inspiration Festival. (needless to say - I'm so excited!!!!) Now, now. Don't ask who it is! That simply won't be revealed until the festival week! In the meantime....
I have an ongoing list of questions to ask - but I also wanted to know about you. What would you like to know? Do you have any questions for her? Let me know and I might include them in my interview!!
I might ask...
ReplyDeleteDo you consider it more important to get a costume historically accurate, or to get it to fit a character's personality? Where is the emphasis when choosing costumes?
I'm sure you can word it better than that, but you know what I mean.
I second Jane's Q and then, what would she do to make historically accurate (or at least look like) costumes when your pockets aren't very full? ;) In other words, does she have any tips/tricks to get around the expensive stuff without looking farby?
ReplyDeleteThanks!!! Is she from SA??
Love, Sarah
What's your favorite and least favorite: steps, costume pieces, etc... when creating costumes for movies.
ReplyDeleteEee! I'm so excited! :)
If you need paintings for sewing ideas, you can go to my other blog www.lovelywhatevers.blogspot.com. You might be able to type in "painting-inspired sewing," or "paining inspired dressing" on my www.homeliving.blogspot.com and see a series I did last year on using paintings of the 1800's as models for sewing.
