Costume

Ottilie’s award winning costumes and wearable art deliver a beautiful, often humorous and analytical treatment to clothing and theatrical artifacts. For example, an ordinary baseball glove is decked out with lace, ribbons and frills. Crowns and headdresses are made for imaginary kings and queens. Royal gowns and cloaks are de-mystified and then re-mystified.
