{Costume Design: Mrs. Potts & Chip from Beauty and the Beast}

April 3, 2018 by kelerr

For whatever reason, two of the most challenging costumes came to me immediately. Mrs. Potts was one of those. As soon as I knew we were doing Beauty and the Beast I knew I wanted to fashion a oblong teapot, and I knew I could do it with hoop skirts.
