Costume during our Production

Our  costume fits that of our demographic, young girls.
We don't clad out our artist in the narrative in designer glamorous clothes for a reason we wanted to relate with our audience.
Therefore for our narrative we decided on casual clothes that a young women would wear, for example jeans an a top. We particulary used checked shirts on Emma as we felt it was connotated with Taylor Swift genre, country, which is also why she was wearing the cowboy hat in some of the scenes as we were making a direct reference to the genre of the song (country pop) and Taylor Swift. Nothing that our artist in the narrative wore is particulary hard to come by and would be in a teenagers everyday wardrobe.
Another piece of costume to comment on is her makeup, we particularly focused on this in some scenes as we wanted to make her look like a mess and slightly mad with anger upset, so some scenes are the audience being shown that she's putting her make up on all over her face to reflect the emotional state she is in. When however she is shown during the flashbacks, whilst she was in a romantic relationship the make up is normal of what a teenage girl would wear, not to much.
The costume in the performance is a little different, this is slightly more glamorous as to make a clear contrast to her as a character in the narrative and her as an artist in the performance. We wanted a more glamorous image of her as here we want the audience to look up to her style, as musicians these days are often talked about for their fashion style.
