The bigger the better: 80's hair and clothing styles
This week for lab hours we had the actor playing the role of Travis Yorgason come in for a fitting. I came closer to the end of his fitting, but we were able to find him a few options. After he left, Taimi and I started to work with Ingrid on what her look could be. It was a lot of fun. We weren't satisfied with just clothes though so we also started to look at some accessory and hair options. Big hair options. We got some good teases in her hair and found two outfits that really look good for her character. We decided she looks good in blues and we wanted something comfortable since her character had been waiting in a hospital for quite some time. One of the looks was a cream colored shirt with a navy blue cardigan that had a floral pattern on the shoulders and elbows and some nicerish navy blue comfortable pants. The other look consisted of the same pants, but a large, oversized, light blue sweater instead of the cardigan. We got her hair really big, gave her a ring, and gave her some nice giant hoop earrings. It was quite a lovely sight. After finishing our fun with Ingrid, the actor playing the role of Blaine came in. He is quite the character himself. It was fun to work with him. He was full of energy and excitement and was willing to try anything we handed him. We weren't able to find him quite as much as we would have liked, but we did find him some things. After all was said and done, I feel I had a very successful and productive lab hour session.
