Projects
- Heathers 1989 Costume Project (Part 2)This is Part 2 of my Costume Film Project. I decided to modernise Heather Duke’s co-ord outfit from the opening scene. I chose this outfit to update as I feel the piece could be very popular in line with current trends and summer fashion. I thoroughly enjoyed creating these pieces as it gave me the opportunity to pair my two favourite things, film and fashion.

- Heathers 1989 Costume Project (Part 1)This is Part 1 of my Costume Film Project. I chose the 1989 film Heathers. I decided to use this film for my project inspiration as I love the stylish attire and the fashion worn by the famous Heathers. My work includes the remaking of Heather Chandler’s iconic jacket from the cafeteria scene (03:51mins). This has been my favourite project to work on so far as I love incorporating fashion with film.
