Why nothing but Broadway and Hollywood?[edit]

I think it's rather odd that an entry on costume design presumes that the only two venues for it are Broadway/off-Broadway (and only of the past few decades), and Hollywood. What of costume designers for the stage outside of the US? Why no mention of such as Leon Bakst, Picasso and other designers for European stage productions? Why no historic references? Why no opera or ballet? Why no Ballet Russes? I don't have expertise in this subject, so it's not as appropriate for me to expand the entry, but _someone_ certainly ought to tackle it!

Agreed: this entry is too biased towards the USA and needs some work to make it more generic and relevant to those of us who are interested in the rest of the world. Nicole A. Jenkins (talk) 05:30, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Note to designers who want to be linked from this entry[edit]

Wikipedia is not an advertising forum. Do not add a link to your costume design website in the External Links section. It will be removed. If you revert it, you may be banned or the WP entry locked. The External Link section is intended for linking to academic sites, costume museums, etc. Bricology (talk) 19:17, 7 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Recommend removal of link to "Tentacle Studio" on these grounds. Nicole A. Jenkins (talk) 05:32, 17 July 2008 (UTC) theiwero dkjkei weweoisd wej[reply]

Complete rewrite[edit]

The article required a complete rewrite and reorganising. The page Costume designer had been redirected to this page but a mistype showed that the page Costume Designer has existed for some time. So I have moved all relevant information to that page and will be requesting a move to the proper title.--Amadscientist (talk) 13:30, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Self promotion verses context to prose, notability for inclusion[edit]

The use of work from those editing this page must comply with all guidelines and policies. No undue weight, self promotion etc. If you are stating that "you" yourself are notable enough for mention within this article, the claim must be sourced per MOS. Use of images for context is fine following procedures established by community consensus.--Amadscientist (talk) 04:59, 1 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Edits and Reconstruction[edit]

Over the next few months, as part of a Graduate class assignment, I will be adding/reorganizing this article by dividing it into several sections: 1) Introduction 2) Origin and history 3) Design Process 4) Production Process 5) Fields and types of costume design and how they relate or differ from one another

Review[edit]

The layout of the page is nice and gives a good overview of the craft, including some good pictures. The "see also" reference in brief history about Dionysus needs to be reformatted, but other than that it is relatively clear in its coverage. The large percentage of the history section devoted to James Planche makes the article feel somewhat unbalanced. Perhaps you might consider condensing it a bit, or expanding the other sections to provide an equal amount of discussion. The "Design process" and "Production process" sections are great and well-organized. I love all the external links provided. I feel like it might still be missing a section discussing the current state of the craft, perhaps expanding on the formation of some of the organizations listed in the external links, such as "The National Costumers Association" or the IDD, and maybe even some prominent or noteworthy designers or designs of the 21st century. Overall though, it is a great overview of the subject. Eparness (talk) 15:20, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

more focus on movie industry[edit]

I wish the article can somehow focus more on the movies industry and TV series since thats the majority of what people are watching nowadays. There aren't enough of source and some citations are needed. The History and the production process on designing the costume are good. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1012:B007:47D4:3179:8E26:137C:E991 (talk) 19:42, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
