Threadbanger: Parsons Costume Shop

This was fabulous to see!!! My mom used to design patterns. I sew as well, and my daughter does too. I'll have to tell her about this site!. She adores costumes!!

I love this episode. I'm very interested in costume design/shop and I thought this was very informative =]

Great episode! This was very interesting =P

It's so cool to see how this all works. Thank you for the behind the scenes look. I also appreciate how Parson's have a lot of plants in their creative space. Good feng shui.

uhhhh i like to do that too looks so great.... and if would be able to do this to i alway would come to school with those costumes!

Hey Threadbanger, it would be totally rad if you did a tutorial on how to turn your fashion drawings and ideas...into patterns. Seriously, I have trouble with that.

Seriously, please get a tripod. This video made me seasick.

Great episode. Loved the eye candy :) It also got methinking about draping. Ms. Parsons said it's one of the "skills" you must master. I thought that it only consisted of sort of wraping the fabric around the dress form and figuring out the way it should flow on it. How about an episode about draping? Or at least mentioning it? :)

I keep watching it try to figure out how the make that padded double to go over the dressform. I need something like that!

I loved this video! It's what I want to be doing sometime in the future and it really helped me get a good idea of what takes place. Thanks!

Man, this place owns my local theatre... you wouldn't believe how much we try to reuse stuff, so we don't have to spend more money than necessary... go Broadway!

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhAhA!!!!! I LOVE THREADBANGER!!! Even more than I did 10 minutes ago! I love it when you show costume shop tours and stuff!!! SO MUCH INSPIRATION!

i imagined myself doing what those people are doing.. and i kinda got some stars in my eyes. that must have been such a privledge to be there. you guys are so lucky to go behind the scenes like that

I love when you guys do episodes about Broadway!!! I was glued to my computer screen the entire time- this has to be one of the best episodes!!!

Wow great webisode!;) I felt like a kid in a candy store! I loved everything that goes into making custumes. I wished I had all those dress forms! LOL! Way to go Miss Sally P!!;)

I think that this was one of my favorite episode. Thank you!!

how come we hardly see corinne and rob anymore? i wanna see more corinne and rob!!!!!.. please :)

Crazy! I went to grad school with Christian @ the University of Illinois! He was the head hair/make up guy back in '86. You looked great Chrisserwhisser!

I loved this!!!!! I so want to work for them!!!!

WOW! Just Amazing! I think I need a cigarette...and I don't smoke.

That was so total wicked cool. I kept say no, no stop! ask more questions I want to know what and how they are doing that. I'm all giddy now!

my sister would love the pink dress and do they take sketches from up and coming designers

this is the best episode ever!! I am a Costume Design Major in Houston TX. It really takes a lot of work, but in the end it's always fun. I'm taking draping at the moment so this was just grea to watch. Thanks!

I had no idea how much work went into making those costumes. I can't believe they make the entire costume twice, once with cheaper material. WOW. Talk about dedication... great episode!

I think those ladies are older because they have been on that shop since it opened in 1980. Once you find a good seamstress you never let her get away.

Fabulous, Fabulous, Fabulous. That was wonderful. As for the comment on how old the people looked, you need a certain age and experience for this kind of work. Well done. Absolutely loved this episode. Thanks Threadbanger.

On a day to day basis this is grueling work. As a young person it might be a fun thought. Look at the tired out of shape tired women who are working there.

OMMGGG i love this stooff!!!! that was so cool i realy enjoyed it thanx agian guys

This episode made my eyes all wide and sparkly like a kid in a candy store. I loved it, thanks!!

Thank you for this episode! As a costumer at my university it is really nice to get a chance to see how things are done on a much larger scale. Loved this ep!
