Cinderella: Transforming Dress Construction

The College Light Opera Company (2022)

This dress was one of the three fully built transforming dress in Rogers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella. Construction of the gold and pink dress were done by me, and engineering of the transformation was aided by the costume designer, and draper Anna Light.
