What kinds of research does a costume design do? Where does he/she look for inspiration?
What will be an ideal response?
A costume designer does research on three levels: the world of the play text, the director's concept, and the search for inspirational images that stimulate new ways of thinking about the production's look or visual motifs. Designers consult books on period style, artworks, magazines, and other visual resources. Today, a lot of research may be done on the Internet. They also may visit museums.
