AIDA

Textile design for High priest Ramfis from Verdi's Aida

For this project I wanted to make all the fabrics myself. 

The full costume consists of over 20 meters of fabric, and where originally white. I dyed all the fabrics in the colours I wanted, and then screen printed over them.

About 90% of this costume is hand-printed by me, and a small piece machine embroidered. In total there I designed 6 separate prints, for which I made 8 silk screens, spent 5 days printing, and 3 days dyeing.
