Fashion Design : Sketches

Various quick fashion studies, exploring athletic cut-and-sew lines, colors, textural variants and proportional shifts. Intended for a bold and confident woman who is not afraid to explore unusual silhouettes.


Costumes : Turandot

Inspired by the Design Studio Press’ The Skillful Huntsman, the Turandot costume sketches show few examples of visual brainstorming, attempting to figure out an overall silhouette that Turandot should embody: imposing? Intimidating? Feminine? Adrogynous?  What kind of statement should she make with her presence? Overall, the goal was to create Turandot and her presence to be so awe-inspiring, shocking and somewhat over-the-top to relate to her attitude, stubborn mind and disregard for the pain she causes to others. As she eventually accepts/understands love, her costume would transform as well into a much simpler and eloquent statement.


Sets + Environments : La Traviata

This proposal for La Traviata set, focuses on simplicity and modernism, thus allowing the key elements of the environment to make an instant and clear impact. Instead of overwhelming the stage, this set would provide a visually quiet environment, thus allowing the focus to be fully devoted to the aural experience.
