Multi-color ombre effects, or "How do Angels dress in Heaven?"

Happy new year! First post of 2011!

At PlayMakers, we're well into production on Tony Kushner's epic two-part Angels in America, which we're running in repertory soon. I've got a ton of cool projects to share, the first of which being the costumes we're creating for the Angels of the Principalities, which appear in a convocation scene in Perestroika, Part 2.

Costume Designer Jan Chambers and Director Brendan Fox have a photosets of inspiration images that you can page through on flickr, to see some of the artwork that has informed the Angels' attire.

Angel Robes photoset - This includes haute couture runway images and photoshoots, garment research, and textile art including the landscape kimonos of Itchiku Kubota.
