Creating the Best Costume for your Act
I use my experience of over a decade of making clothing and costumes to discuss the important things to consider when creating the right costume for your act, including functionality, durability, materials, and building methods. I share some of the unique pieces I've created for myself in a show-and-tell format for inspiration and hands-on learning.
