Images below showcase costume technology that I collaborated on as a stitcher, draper, and cutter with UNCC Dance Designer Rachel Engstrom. Projects were completed as part of a collaborative process with costume shop staff and students. These projects included drafting patterns from designs, cutting fabric pieces, stitching pieces together, adding trim details, and alterations. All projects were constructed for dance performers to facilitate movement and comfort.
