Costumes are the first impression that you have of the character before they open their mouth-it really does establish who they are.

Sleepy Hollow had a lot of action in it, even though it was a fairy-tale movie.

If you want someone to feel warm, you dress them in a warm color and put a warm light on them and you get the picture. Sometimes, all that needs pushing a little bit to help tell the story.

I had to work out that it was something that could move, without having everybody in spray painted leotards.

In designing Supergirl, I wanted to embrace the past but more importantly, thrust her into the street-style action hero of today.

Every project starts with a story.

I don't design my own clothes. It's so not what I think about.
