About the Program

ADSNY is delighted to welcome costume designer Charlotte Mitchell whose assignments have taken her from major historical periods to the present. She will discuss how a character’s apparel is of major importance in period productions. It is paramount that the costumes are relevant to the audience, catching their attention and bringing the story to life. When designing period costumes this becomes even more crucial, especially when that period is set in the twentieth century, a time when silhouettes presaged how we look and dress today.
