Could you be a . . . Theatre Costumer?

Do you love going to movies and plays especially to see the costumes? Are you always on the support crew of your school's theatre productions? Do you enjoy collaborating on projects? If so, you could be Theatre Costume material.

A Theatre Costumer creates the costumes for the stage as well as film and television. What's needed? An artistic sensibility, "outside the box" thinking, and the ability to problem-solve.

Look at some of the great careers you can have with a degree in Theatre Costume from FIDM:

A Theatre Costumer/Wardrober creates the costumes used in theatre, film, and television. You'll work closely with the director and producer to create convincing wardrobes for characters, and do historical research to ensure authenticity.

Head of Wardrobe works with the designer to plot out where and when costume changes take place, oversee a staff of dressers who assist the actors, make emergency costume repairs, and oversee costume maintenance.

Shoppers are employed by costume shops or designers to shop for selections of fabric, trims, clothing, and accessories for a theatre production.
