Into the Woods - Costumes

Description

Continuing my series of costume designs for 'Into the Woods.' This contains one of my - probably one of my best ideas for the costume design, which unfortunately I got *after* the competition for which I was designing costumes. I'm telling you, it haunts me.

Now, the theme that my group had decided on for this Into the Woods was 'in the modern day.' Moving on.

From left to right: Cinderella, with a gold and silver dress that has a leaf or feather motif, after her connection with birds and the fact that her mother's tree gave her the dress. I always picture Into the Woods' Cinderella as Chinese, in a Chinese house, and etc., because the earliest known version of Cinderella is from China. Yay for design inspiration!

The center is Cinderella's mother as the tree. Notice, first of all, the vaguely Chinese design of her dress, the fact that she is the tree, and the bird serving as a hat. The bird theoretically embodies her spirit; with it, the actress' head can (theoretically) remain invisible until she lifts it to sing.

Last, Little Red Riding Hood. We gave her a kind of aschoolgirl ensemble, which is actually my favorite costume that we put together. Cloak, little beret, plaid motifs. Yay.
