    It's only after you see all the work and heart put into things like costume design that you start appreciating it (or at least in my case) sometimes things you take for granted are such a complex and beautiful part of an all.

      Totally agree, Juan. I have an entirely new level of respect for how many artists work behind and in front of the stage to make this show happen. LOTS of creativity in one place!

      They sell costume pieces at the Broadway Flea Market each September, if you wanted some memorabilia? :) I have one bow and one headband that have some of the flowers from the Il Muto sylphide costumes on them.

    I'm going to go to college for costume design I hope. I really love it, and it seems the most amazing of all the parts of a production because your art is put into another amazing art and no one ever has to know it's you who made the visuals complete:) (unless they really, really care, I guess)

    • @artrageousnate
      @artrageousnate  6 років тому +4

      B Spencer That’s awesome to hear! I say go for it. I will tell you this much, I have so much respect for the designers of these costumes. I was amazed how everything is taken into consideration such as light, color, contrast, weight, and so much more. What these artists do is absolutely amazing.

    • @greylarkspur
      @greylarkspur 6 років тому

    All broadway costumes are in a sense practically custom Coutoure garments. And what’s even more crazy is how much collaboration, and evolving goes into costuming a show. It’s a huge part of a show because costumes are one of the many cogs in the machine of bringing a show from idea to reality.

    As someone who has recreated the Think of Me dress from both the movie and broadway versions, the Broadway version weighs so much because the weight of the fabric plus the beads and the lace and details weigh it down so much that its basically a workout just trying to get from one end of the convention hall to another in 4 inch heels and a corset and heavy petticoats underneath and still be able to sing opera for the contest is just hard work.

    • @artrageousnate
      @artrageousnate  Рік тому

      That's incredible that you have recreated that dress! I still can't believe how much these dresses weighed. Combine that with trying to sing and move on the stage and I have no idea how they do it each night! Super appreciate you watching and for the great feedback.

    As much as I don't like handful of US costumes and choices of design (minimal variation in Slavegirls tiaras and chestplates or Black color in Il Muto)
    I still really enjoy this costume porn! The costumes overall are stunning, Maria Björnson was really talented lady! She's one who inspired me to design!
