The above photos are from The Match Girl's Gift: A Christmas Story. I designed and my mother built the three girl's dresses. Two fancy ones and the Match Girl's poor ones. The mother, father, streetchildren, and grandmother costumes were borrowed but fit the Victorian time period the play was set in. The chimney sweep and dance costumes I designed and pieced together to be flames and snowflakes.
I designed The Lead Girl and her friend's costumes for a ballet of Andrew Byrd's The Red Shoes.
These were bought leotards that had various forms of lace and eyelet sewn to them. Some of the lace came directly from our director's mother who bought it in the Ukraine.
The other dance costumes I picked out.
