I had decided to wear a white shirt, school tie, blazer, black skirt, tights and dc martin boots. All of these costume items I have, accept for the tie.
At school every student always has the same coloured tie, we decided to make our own ties and paint them black and purple so that everyone was matching and we looked like a school group on the mischief. We made the ties from paper and double sided up the sides so that we make them as sturdy and strong as possible so they don't rip. We painted the ties and left them to rest overnight. When we studyed them in the morning they had cracked from where the paint had been. They were still really flimsy and didnt look suitable for the production. So i decided i would buy my very own tie that would look nice and last for the production.
Before i bought the tie i did suggest making them ourselves again out of fabric i was inspired by this original idea from a previous production i was part if. No one agreed on this idea as it involved more money and time.
