Witness for the Prosecution

I was thrilled to extend my assistance to a community theater that needed some sewing help! Working with this group was so much fun and I hope that I get to work with them more in the future!

The play was set in England in the late 40's to early 50's. So we had some fun silhouettes to play with. The judge, contrary to what is usually seen, in this time and place wears red and white. The lawyers, also wear judges robes, but in black. All of which have these interesting white collars, which I was excited to make.

The characters I created or altered pieces for are:
  • Mr. Justice Wainwright - created a red capelet and white collar
  • Other Lawyers - created the white collars they wear during the trial
  • Greta - brought up in the shoulders and shortened hem
  • Inspector Hearne - shortened the hem of the sleeves and took in extra fabric along the sides
  • The Other Girl - shortened the hem and brought up in the shoulders

More pictures to come!

Custom Pieces:
