Professional Portfolio
My name is Emily, and I am a professional costumer with a 20+ year background in stage, clubs, and custom private costumes. My approach blends craftsmanship with innovation, often using my own engineered materials, practical effects, and unexpected methods to achieve striking results. Whether I’m constructing items for a magic act, clothes that tear away, or a screen-accurate Star Wars costume, I bring both technical expertise and creative problem-solving to every project.
