Costume Designer for Sands of Purgatory

Sands of Purgatory is a post apocalyptic film set far in the future. We had the challege and prospect of making the majority of the costumes from scratch as most modern clothes would look out of place in this setting. This was my first time working on a film and orginially I had been invited to be part of a large sewing team organised to help make the costumes. Due to an unforseen set of circumstances I was given the opportunity to step up and be lead costume designer on this film.
This role included designing and making a full set of costumes for aproximately 20 cast members in around 2 months! With this tight turnaround I learnt good time management and how to delegate a team of makers. My designs were heavily influenced by considering what the characters would have access to and the ability to work with. This led to a mixture of layered and heavily draped pieces that build up the worn and textured aesthetic of the story.
