A costume designer or wardrobe stylist in New York transforms the words of a script into visual imagery by designing costumes. Costume designers and wardrobe stylists work with the director, scenic & lighting, and hair/wig/makeup designers in enhancing a character's presence as the story unfolds. Costume designing involves designing garments that will match historical periods, while working with fabrics that will withstand lighting and scenic action demands if stunts are required.
