Duchess of Malfi- 1910

Production

A theatre performance of The Duchess of Malfi, by playwright John Webster, 1614

Setting

1910

Brief

To reconceptualize the 17th century play within a randomly assigned decade, demonstrating historical costume, adhering to a strict colour pallet of red.

Concept

I have re-designed the two characters The Duchess and Antonio as a Chauffeur and his female client. Using the invention of Edwardian motor cars to inform my period research and design ideas. To the left is a 1910 Argyll car which informed the textiles and fabric swatches of the chauffeurs jacket, using statement crochet seams to replicate seat upholstery
