This is the first time I've had a Costume Designer like Bart's Caitlin Ward -- someone sure, fine, high-strung, with an eye and sense for clothes that just won't quit. The looks Lara thinks of are so far beyond anything I would think of -- and they just work, and work, and work.
It was like fresh winds sweeping through a house, leaving it clean-scented.
Her work is delicate, strong, beautiful. The dominatrix costume is striking, unusual, and about to become more so with tailoring. It's like a spotlight that stays on that actress. Ruella's dressing gown is cut and draped of heavy satin, constructed to fall like a tailored evening gown, but with the soft slinkiness of bedwear. Your eye lingers on the actress, because the clothes and bearing are so beautiful.
Costumes are a blessing. Costumes are a portal. I am grateful for these costumes, and for Lara.
