Nurse :: Silent Hill Movie
Inspiration
I felt the overwhelming need for something completely disgusting since all of my costumes are “cute”. I’ve also always wanted a costume with a full mask. Daguru, whose work I admire profusely and is amazing with sculpting and casting, offered to do this joint project with me.
Construction
I sewed the dress and hat. I altered a front-close dress to make it a velcro wrap and drafted the lapels. I patterned the hat myself because it was going over a giant latex head, and has a distinct shape. Luckily I didn’t have to sew any hems because they were just going to be destroyed! Daguru distressed the uniform using latex, mixed media, and paint. He sculpted and cast the impressive mask. I love the textural quality this outfit has. I took movie screenshots for reference, so if you’re undertaking this project, email me for the shots.
