My week at Cosprop
It was the second time I had done work experience at Cosprop, and it didn’t disappoint this time either. Cosprop provides costumes for TV, Film and Theatre and has around 45,000 costumes in the archive. Genuine costumes of the particular era they are working on are used as inspiration by the designer and the costume team then makes them to fit the actor. Lots of couture skills are required and beautiful results follow. I was fortunate enough to be able to assist with the costumes for the next series of Mr Selfridge, no images to show you though due to Copyright. I learned yet more skills that I have since been able to put into practice for my final college project.
