Arwen White

I am a Costume Designer and Tailor with over 20 years of experience designing for theatre, opera, and dance. I have developed a reputation for innovative, detailed designs that support actors in embodying their characters while aligning with the director’s vision. I bring a unique blend of fine art sensibility and practical, high-quality garment construction.

My background in fabric dyeing and distressing, period and fantasy design, and wig styling ensures I can adapt to a variety of productions while maintaining exceptional standards. I thrive in environments where the costume shop, actors, and creative teams work together to bring productions to life.
