You never know what can influence you to change your whole life! Mine was a Halloween Costume contest!
As a child born in England and raised in Florida I knew life can be strange and unusual. After graduating high school I never expected my life to turn out this way. I was never going to go to college, I was determined to not join the military like the rest of my family, and I didn’t know what I wanted to do. Then one Halloween I won a costume contest, talked to the host of the party about theater and in that spring I applied to college and changed my life forever. I’ve become and addict to telling stories through clothing ever since. Now I have a Graduate Masters in Costume technology and get to bring other people’s designs to life.
Still to this day!
I created this Queen Elizabeth while I was at UWF. Still to this day it is one of my most favorite projects. The Smocking, The creating of the Whisk, and the Bejeweled chest. This piece is currently in stock at Wardrobe Witchery and get rented out through Glenn.
