Costume Renderings

In this image, I have sketched a green dress with the signature bow in the bak that I have incorporated in most of the characters dresses to portray that they are apart of the same play. This dress particularly will be the same for Frances, Irma, Kathy and May in different colors. Orange for Irma, baby pink for Kathy and a royal blue for Irma. The dress itself is a solid color except for the apron, sleeve details and neck design. The apron is simply an orange silk material with black lace. That same material is on the sleeve as well as the neck. This dress should fluffed using a tulle lining. The black surrounding the neck however is the same colored orange material frilled around the neck with a muslin material. The swatches for this dress is down below:

The apron and sleeve of the dress is inspired by a late 1800s tablecloth and the dress itself is a baby pink silk. The dress should be lined with a tulle in order for an addition puff.

The top portion and apron match, with a bow in the back. The neck is a scowl neck with buttons running down the bottom with the same orange silk material in the back. 

Rachel Brayton plays a girly quiet character throughout the script. For that reason being I have made her dress extra girly. The bottom portion is a picture of a baby pink silk material which is carried on the top portion as well. The top portion also incorporates a so to say half corset with should be made using a darker pink silk material and the buttons should be black. The apron is frilled with the same darker pink material and it has orange and baby pink shapes.   

This dress uses the similar material for the dress made for Rachel. The bottom portion is striped with purple and baby pink silk. The top has a purple corset with pink sleeves and baby pink top portion. The buttons are made out of the same darker pink silk used top frill the apron. The neck is a fitted turtle neck with a pink silk material.

 

The two outfits above is a simple outfit that men wore in the late 1800's. The color of the vests and suits got lighter as the time evolved. This is a simple white formal shirt with a gray vest and black/ brown dress pants. I kept it simple. Here are the swatches:
