The reason that I am a costume designer is because it is everything that I am interested in, and did on my own as a kid, all put into one job. There’s the drawing and painting of sketches. There’s the fascination with the history of clothes. I was always into fabrics. Costume design is giving an external look to a character. It gives an indication of things unsaid.

That Oscar was earned. A most luscious wardrobe for both men and women, I gasped from the first scene. Spectacular!!!
