Curtain call at Verdi’s La Traviata, The Metropolitan Opera, November 4, 2022
Starring Nadine Sierra (Violetta), Stephen Costello (Alfredo) and Lusa Salsi (Germont). Production created in 2018 by Michael Mayer, with sets by Christine Jones, costumes by Susan Hilferty, and lights by Kevin Adams.
Funny how the iPhone camera turns images into these artsy little painted shapes when you zoom in.

It's not easy being green
WICKED
Birmingham Hippodrome, Wednesday 6th March, 2024
One of the most successful musicals of all time is on the road again and it’s a real treat to be able to catch it during its stay at Birmingham’s Hippodrome. If you’ve seen it before, you’ll recall the emotional highs and lows of the story, and the green-faced one belting out ‘Defying Gravity’, but perhaps like me you’ll be reminded just…

A concept playbill and Gershwin Theater poster I made for a hypothetical Son of a Witch musical in honor of Pride month ;)
My take on a SOAW musical outline under the cut:
My idea for a SOAW musical is that it would take place eighteen years after Elphaba and Fiyero leave Oz and settle down in Ix, Ev or Fliaan. Liir would be the new protagonist and longs to be independent after being shielded away from the rest of the world by his parents. Like Elphaba, he inherits some of powers, but also has the ability to look into the past based on his location. When his best friend Nor is kidnapped and taken to Oz (Nor wouldn’t be related to him in this hypothetical musical) He escapes The Badlands and travels to Oz to find her. Once there he meets with Glinda for help, who has since taken over Oz and is in disbelief to learn that Elphaba left behind a son. However she’s later usurped by Sheltergod Thropp, Elphaba’s younger brother who seeks to abolish Animals from Oz just like the Wizard did. Liir joins the Loyal Oz Army and meets Trism who later becomes his accomplice and lover in taking down Shell, rescuing his friend and possibly all of Oz. With the help of Trism, Candle, and his Animal companion Iskinaary, he seeks to finish what his mother started.
I’m thinking much like the Wicked musical, this would adapt some parts from the book but would also include some changes. Though this version could be a bit darker and mature while still keeping the light heartedness Wicked has. Liir would have his “Defying Gravity” moment after he escapes the army and goes rogue, then towards the end he declares himself as the son of the witch of the west.
Idina Menzel, Kristen Chenoweth and Norbert Leo Butz would reprise their roles as Elphaba, Glinda, and Fiyero (and they’d probably be replaced with actors who have previously played the characters every season) Stephen Schwartz, Joe Mantello, and Winnie Holzman would come back to create the show with Susan Hilferty for costume design.
This will probably never happen but it was fun to come up with lol xD

September 6, 2022 | Funny Girl Opening Night
I am speechless after yesterday. Historic day for the fans. I don't have words to express how proud I am of this woman, and I am happy that she was able to prove again her incredible talent to the world. In all the world so far, she is the greatest star ⭐
We got so much content about yesterday but we couldn't get many photos of other Lea's outfits. The first outfit Lea wore it during Don't Rain On My Parade perfomance, a red pencil skirt, with a button double-breasted blazer and a white corset under it. This outfit is the same that previous Fannys (Beanie and Jojo) wore.
For the last performance, Lea wore another red embroidered fringe sleeveless knee-dress with detail v-neck. Very sparkly and shining. Beanie and Jojo wore similar dresses but with different details, so probably it has been altered for Lea.
Both outfits were design by the iconic Susan Hilferty, who designed previous Broadway outfits such as Hamlet and Wicked and even Speak Now World Tour costumes for Miss Taylor Swift 💖

hi sarah! if you were designing the eras merch and had to pick an outfit to represent each era which ones do you think you’d pick? i know for me i was somewhat underwhelmed by the one they picked for midnights but i would also totally pick the circus outfit from red!
Hi! I think the only ones I would swap (in addition to Midnights) would be the Speak Now look for the "Dear John" Susan Hilferty dress and the RED look to the "22" hat, heart-shaped glasses, Ashish shirt, and high waisted shorts.

What are the clothing styles of Elphaba and Glinda?
Even though I've only seen this musical once onstage so far, I've been looking through production photos and articles on the costuming just so I can answer this question well.
Elphaba clearly favors plain, conservative, dark-colored clothes at every stage in her life. But as she goes through her journey of becoming "wicked," her aesthetic changes from "drab, nerdy schoolgirl" into "sleek, sophisticated lady."
When she first appears in college, she wears a simple dark blue turtleneck sweater, calf-length skirt, blazer jacket, and knitted cap, with tall brown boots. The school colors of Shiz University are dark blue and white, so make Elphaba and Glinda stand out and highlight the contrast between them, Glinda wears all white, while Elphaba wears all blue. When she attends her first party at the Ozdust Ballroom, she wears a stark, sleeveless dark blue party dress, and the pointy black hat Glinda gave her which becomes her signature hat from then on. Back at school, after her makeover by Glinda, she replaces her heavy blue blazer with a form-fitting white jacket. When she first visits the Emerald City, she wears a high-necked, ankle-length, button-down black dress in an Edwardian design, very similar to the dress worn by Margaret Hamilton's Wicked Witch of the West. In "Defying Gravity," Glinda puts a black cloak around her to warm her, which completes the classic "Witch of the West" look. Throughout Act II, however, when she fully becomes the Witch of the West, she wears her most iconic dress. Black, floor-length, high-necked, long-sleeved, and still in a conservative Edwardian style, but much more glamorous than any of her earlier costumes, with a subtle yet wide assortment of patterns, textures, and colors woven into it (chiefly purple, red, and teal). The costume designer Susan Hilferty wrote that she meant for this dress to evoke the earth – raw, jagged, rocky earth, but with gemstones shining through it. At the very end, though, she wears a simple, low-cut, floor-length black dress when she leaves Oz with Fiyero after faking her death.
Glinda's costumes are just the opposite of Elphaba's – light, frilly, flouncy, and bubbly. Although one similarity (possibly symbolic?) is that in Act II, she favors the color blue like Elphaba did in Act I, just in a much lighter shade. Her aesthetic also changes from girlish and cute in Act I to more glamorous and womanly in Act II.
Her schoolgirl outfit is a short-sleeved white blouse and vest, a lacy knee-length white skirt, and white buckled high heels (she loves high heels), with a white travel jacket and white tam o'shanter hat at the beginning. To the Ozdust Ballroom party and in "Popular," she wears a frilly, sleeveless, knee-length pink dress and pink heels. In her first trip to the Emerald City, she wears a similar sleeveless, knee-length dress, but in yellow. Then in Act II, her costumes upgrade to reflect her new, high-status public role. Her "Thank Goodness" costume is an elegant yet conservative (although still slightly quirky and Oz-like) suit dress of ice blue and mint green silk, with a tiny white hat, inspired by the 1940s fashions worn by Eva Peron to evoke Glinda's similarity to Eva as a political figurehead. To her engagement ball, she wears a sleeveless, sequined, pale green ballgown with a full, 17th century-inspired skirt that looks like flower petals, and a silver tiara with a flower design. Finally, she wears her iconic, elaborate "bubble dress": a short-sleeved, bare-shouldered, large-skirted ice blue gown like that of a classic fairy princess, all covered in tiny crystal sequins, with another petal-like design for the skirt, and with a silver tiara shaped like glittering stars on her head.
The differences in Elphaba and Glinda's costumes is mirrored by the design of their college dorm room too, with Elphaba's plain patched-quilt bed and shelves of books vs. Glinda's frilly purple bed and shelves of designer shoes. By the way, that dorm room set reminds me of the difference between Margaret Hamilton's dressing room and Billie Burke's on the set of The Wizard of Oz. Allegedly, the studio treated them almost as if they really were the Witch of the West and Glinda; Billie Burke had a beautiful pink and blue dressing room, while Margaret Hamilton was just given a plain, ugly canvas tent.

FAS3003 - BLOG
For the final project of my fashion and textiles foundation year we have been tasked with creating either a sketchbook or 1xA3 folder containing research, samples, development ideas with a final range of ideas or large scale outcome. We have been asked to choose any topic of which we have a passionate personal interest.
I started by brainstorming potential topics that I am interested in, including film, fairy tales, nature, flowers and theatre. I then narrowed it down to film and theatre costume with an interpretive period theme and mind mapped some of my favourite pieces to get an idea of the type of samples and outcome I would like to create. Some of these included the costumes from films such as ‘Mirror Mirror’ (2012) by designer Eiko Ishioka, ‘Cinderella’ (2015) by designer Sandy Powell, ‘Alice in Wonderland’ (2010) by designer Colleen Atwood and ‘Emma’ (2020) by designer Alexandra Byrne. I also gathered some images from theatre productions and movie musicals such as ‘Moulin Rouge’ (2001) by designers Catherine Martin and Angus Strathie, ‘Wicked’ theatre costumes by designer Susan Hilferty and ‘Six’ theatre costumes by designer Gabriella Slade.
After some consideration I decided to focus on ‘Moulin Rouge’ due to my strong interest in set and costume in both film and theatre. I particularly like the use of materials, fabrics, embroidery, patterns and colour palette that are a strong element of all Moulin Rouge productions as well as the real Parisian location itself. I would also like to look into the history of the Moulin Rouge to gain a better understanding of how it has changed over time, and how it has become what it is today.

Esta comedia agridulce es la historia de la indomable Fanny Brice, una chica del Lower East Side que soñaba con una vida sobre el escenario. Todo el mundo le dijo que nunca sería una estrella, pero entonces ocurrió algo curioso: se convirtió en una de las intérpretes más queridas de la historia, brillando más que las luces más brillantes de Broadway. Con algunas de las canciones más emblemáticas de la historia del teatro, como "Don't Rain On My Parade", "I'm the Greatest Star" y "People", la nueva y audaz producción de Michael Mayer es la primera vez que FUNNY GIRL vuelve a Broadway desde su debut hace 58 años.
