I have to do a romeo and juliet project that relates to costumes that they might wear during the play and how those costumes affect the theatre. So, I picked a costume book and I have to draw costumes for some characters. Since I am bad at drawing I am doing it in photoshop. If anyone can help me it would be AMAZING! I need websites and or pictures where I can find pictures and those descriptions for the costumes. I am making this in a Renaissance setting.
Description – The setting of the play is fourteenth-century Italy, but actors in Shakespeare’s time would have worn Elizabethan costumes. Make a costume book for the actors of Romeo and Juliet by drawing a minimum of one authentic costume for Romeo, Juliet, Mercutio, Prince Escalus, Nurse, Friar Laurence, Lord Capulet, Lord Montague, Lady Capulet, and Lady Montague. Label each costume according to the character, act, and scene. In the costume book, include a one-paragraph caption explaining each costume. In a 500-750 word descriptive essay, explain Elizabethan costumes and their use in the theater.
So if you guys could give me any information regarding the costumes or the essays it would be great. THanks in advance.
