She has built up a broad network of contacts within the fashion retail industry, design houses and PR companies, and is able to borrow or obtain clothing and accessories at vastly reduced costs.
If required, she can provide a trusted, first class costume crew, and she has the facilities to design and produce specific pieces of clothing to order – as with Trapped and Relic. In addition, she has a stock of interesting pieces of contemporary and vintage clothing that is available to use on projects, which always helps with the budget.
