Venus in Fur

Costume Design by Caitlin Quinn
Directed by Rebecca Bailey
University of South Dakota

Production Details: This production was set in 2015 and was produced for the University of South Dakota's small black box theatre. The audience was very close to the actors onstage. 

Costume Details: The script had several costume requirements such as the "Victorian-style" dress and tailcoat that needed to fit into a gym bag. I designed the dress to be lightweight and sheer so her undergarments still showed through as she moved and the dress was able to fit easily in her bag. I purchased the lingerie pieces early so the actress was able to rehearse and get comfortable in the pieces before an audience was present.
