I have worked as a Costume Designer for film and television on period and contemporary productions, for the past thirty years.
Repeatedly reinstated with the same producers and directors, on their future projects.
Working from someones vision is hugely exciting and rewarding. Reading the script and presenting
ideas from that script to the writer director and producers and hence formatting the characters, are what makes every project a challenge.
The smallest detailing is key for the authenticity of the characters. Subtly and sensitivity, means the characters/actors
can find their own identities within their costumes.
It is essential not to over style, unless the script requires it, collaboration is an essential part of this process.
Costumes need to be realistic and work within the story lines to epitomize the characters in question, and be
adaptable to the many action scenes, which are often involved.
Using different fabrics/textiles, accessories and jewellery allows you to individualise and provide depth to each character.
One of the many challenges in television today is the lack of budget for the project in question.
Achievement is not compromising the look that is required because of the budget.
I have an extensive stock of high-end contemporary and period costumes including uniforms, lingerie, footwear, jewellery and accessories.

In 2012 I was nominated for an “EMMY” for Sherlock (A Scandal in Belgravia) Outstanding Costumes for a Miniseries, Movie.
I was awarded a Welsh Bafta for my Costume Design for the period film, “Treweryn” in 1996. I have done many interviews and press pieces promoting some of the programmes I have been involved with. Many aspects of Costume Design have been covered over the 30 years I have been designing including Light Entertainment and Current Affairs. I have styled many stars I have filmed with for promotional purposes -billboards magazines and newspapers. I love a challenge and strive to make a difference on every project I embark on.
