About me

Hi, my name is Abi! I'm a recent graduate of the Performance Design and Film Costume course at Arts University Bournemouth. I'm passionate about creating characters and storytelling, as well as innovative costume design and experimenting with new and unusual materials. My main focus while at university has been costume design and illustration, but I enjoy all areas of the costuming process from garment construction and cosprops and shoe making, to costume breakdown and working on set as a standby.
