Covering all aspects of costume and clothing, Wendy can provide a variety of services from costume production, right through to costume sourcing and styling, wardrobe supervision, on set alterations, bridal wear, and bespoke dressmaking and tailoring. Having graduated with a BA Degree in ‘Costume for the Screen and Stage’ from Bournemouth Arts Institute in 2006, Wendy has worked hard to establish
herself as a reliable and dedicated Costumer. Specialising in period and theatrical costume, with an emphasis on corsetry, Wendy is a skilled seamstress and can apply her expertise to all aspects of costume making. She has a comprehensive understanding for how costumes often need to provide a specific working function, and can work to almost any budget, finding ways to keep costs down for smaller production requirements. Whether you need a costume realised from a design, a recreation of a piece from a photo or a film, or if you have an idea in your mind about what you need, but want to work through a design process to create a concept, Wendy can produce costumes to suit any need, with skill and attention to detail. Based in her working studio in South East London
, Wendy is happy to travel anywhere in the London or surrounding area to provide her services, and can also work remotely from instructions to produce garments to be delivered to your door. With an excellent understanding of period, character, design and look, Wendy can also be available to style and source costumes to create the perfect look for any theatre production, TV show, or feature film. With insider knowledge on where to source vintage or specialised garments, and a knack for being able to characterise a role through clothing, Wendy can use her talents to create a wardrobe for a production on any scale. Examples of a selection of Wendy’s work can be found in the portfolio section.
