Our Cheap Frills

Monday we went on a wee adventure with uni to Shakespeare's little village of Stratford upon Avon,which is beautifully quant at least the parts we explored were. Thanks to our course which surrounds fashion and costume we were given an opportunity to nose round the costume department at the royal Shakespeare company, we definitely underestimated the amount of people and work that  goes into a production, there was a whole building with all it's nooks and crannies that was crammed with fabrics,designs, equipment and specialists...I mean we had never even heard of a dyeing apartment where it's their responsibility to make an immaculate dress look shabby and bloodstained. It made for a really insightful and visually stimulating day,if you ever get the chance to visit the royal Shakespeare company we would definitely recommend it.
