Welcome to Critiquing Costumes!

As the title suggests, this blog is dedicated to costume reviews and other topics touching on costuming and theatre/filmography. This blog will mainly be costume reviews, but I do also have articles on costuming theories and so much more to look through at your pleasure!

With my reviews, I tend to research what I talk about and then interweave this with my own opinions to create a well-rounded review. It goes without saying, these reviews are every much my own opinions and should therefore not be taken fully as fact. Feel free to disagree with what I present, and feel free to leave a comment! 

I tend to mostly review costumes in films, as I believe that film is more widely available to people throughout the world. However, I will also review stage costumes but these may be seen far less than my movie reviews. On top of this, I will also review the costume design for animated film. I think much of what can be said for live action film in the way of costuming contributing to character design and personality can be related to animated film too!

For my reviews, my analysis and other good stuff focuses more on the females costumes in movies, as that is both where my passion and the majority of my knowledge lie. I will try to talk about male's costumes if I can, but for the most part I will focus on the female's costumes.

I hope you enjoy seeing what I put together, this blog really is a labour of love!
