For Romeo and Juliet I chose to make the costumes based off what they wore in the movies during the balcony scene where Romeo is watching juliet and Juliet is talking to herself, asking why Romeo is Romeo, and so on. I picked this scene for my Costumes because I believe it was the main stepping stone for the rest of the story it pretty much determined the rest of their fate in the whole movie. For Romeo I chose to make just a plain shirt because what he wore always looked simple but put together. I also dressed him in a pair of tights for the bottoms. For juliets costume I looked at what was worn throughout both the 1968 movie and the 1996 movie. I also looked through what was worn in the Victorian era which is what Romeo and Juliet is said to have taken place in. I ended up making a dress which looks like what you would averagely seen during that era. For Juliet’s mother I did the same thing I just used a pattern that was just a bit different and a different material. I based her costume off what she would have worn at the party since she wasn’t present during the balcony scene which I had used for both Romeo and Juliet’s
