Description For the first project in my costume design class, I had to design garb for characters from "The Importance of Being Earnest" by Oscar Wilde. It was an interesting challenge, cuz we were supposed to try to stay historical with our garments (mine based on the 1860s-ish styles) and I've not done many doodles of garb from this era.

I also had to design for the following characters:

Gwendolyn [link]
Lady Bracknell [link]
Miss Prism [link]
Jack [link]
Algernon [link]


Design and doodle (c) me!

It's nice but the dress is a bit too flowy for this era.

Well the designs aren't supposed to be 100% historical (it's as if I were designing things for a play, rather than a reenactment).

Very voluminous. Since this is a costume, I can't say it's not modern.
