Pantomime Dame

For a project in second year I had to design and make a pantomime dame costume with Katherine Barry, a fellow costume student. We designed Widow Miller's costume from Puss in Boots.

She's going to the ball get it?!



We had to make body padding to make our male model look like a woman. we did this with wadding and bird seed (to give it weight). We padded a bra and made a big bum by attaching lots of wadding to some big knickers and covering it all in flesh coloured fabric.





For the hood we had to make a football shape out of octagonal and pentagon shapes of foam and glue them together, then I covered it in PVC to make it look like a football.



Final Costume...69 is Widow Miller's lucky number!
