Costume Designs

Kat enjoys all parts of the design process, from researching, to collaborating, to traditional and digital drawings, to purchasing, and building from scratch. Her designs are bold and larger than life, but always take into account the comfort and performance of the actors. Below you will find selected galleries of recent work.

Orlando

Spanning over six centuries of time and meeting a colorful cast of fictional and historical characters, Orlando was Kat's senior thesis where she explored gender through historical research and juxtaposed elements with modern fashion. Kat received highest honors for her work as well as the Fisher Award for Achievement in the arts.
