Having been sent the designs 3 days ago, it is now all go on the production in a mass of online sourcing research. As part of my role I have been finding a selection of online option for each costume garment, everything from hats and shoes to dresses and coats, spreadsheeting them and passing them on to designer Eleanor and supervisor, Emilie Cox.
Today, the task was finding hire houses and arranging appointments for our designer, Eleanor Bull, to go and look to hire costumes, mainly the suits as we need 10 of them. So far we have contacted eight hire companies altogether with Eleanor arranging one appointment, and I have arranged two appointments and contacted seven myself and am awaiting contact. Six are in London for our designer to get to, but as we are both AUB graduates and know the costume store there well we have contacted them in the hopes that we will be able to hire from the University and I have found another hire company formed by AUB costume Alumni.
Now while waiting to hear back from hire companies, the task is searching out more of the costume elements!
