The Marriage of Figaro - Conceptual Project
The Marriage of Figaro
Composer - Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Librettist - Lorenzo Da Ponte
A conceptual design project with a setting of Regency-era France.
Exploring the Setting
Exploring the architecture, interiors and paintings of the era to give context for my design process.
Researching the Fashions
Initial Design Ideas
Exploring character and costume shaping through sketches.
Developing the Designs for Countess Rosina Almaviva
Out of the characters, I chose the Countess to develop and try out different ideas, exploring how different garment features and colours worked with the character. The final design was developed into a realised costume.
