Hugh Durrant | Conversations on Dress | Costume Society of America

Emmy-winning costume designer Hugh Durrant talks about his illustrious career as he’s interviewed by Lloyd Cracknell, Professor of Costume Design at the University of Oklahoma. Durrant established himself designing sets and costumes in London’s West End for productions ranging from Shakespeare to Spamalot, but he is also responsible for creating over-the-top pantomime costumes. While Americans might be less familiar with his theatre work, many will recognize the numerous and memorable concert looks Durrant designed for the one-and-only Cher. Through original illustrations and photographs, Durrant and Cracknell will discuss the beautiful and the technical, taking us inside the costumier’s studio. Did you enjoy this video?
