My Work Printer friendly CV

With over 18 years of experience as a costume designer and stylist both in the UK and in Brazil, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to every project. I've worked in various industries, including advertising, movies, theatre, and fashion, and in different roles, including costume supervisor. I have extensive experience with hiring costumes, managing budgets, communicating with all wardrobe departments, overseeing fittings, and helping on set when costumes are first worn. In addition, I have years of research creating mood boards, and helping directors and actors bring their characters to life under my belt.

I'm highly organized and efficient, with a keen attention to detail and familiarity with costume budgets and estimating costs. I understand the research processes and know how to source information. As a leader, I have good managerial skills when overseeing assistants and dailies during fittings and on set. I can cope with stress and maintain a positive attitude.

I'm flexible, creative, and experienced in the design process, with a good knowledge of fabric qualities, clothing cuts, fits, and techniques. I'm also familiar with period costumes and have a general knowledge of both costume history and contemporary fashion.
