Episode 14: 

During this episode, we sit down to talk to Catherine Zehr.  Catherine is the Costume Designer for Ballet’s with a Twist.  She talks to us about her inspiration for some of the costumes to Ballet’s with a Twists show Cocktail Hour.  We also discuss some ways we work to reduce landfill waste by supporting our local resale, thrift, and consignment shops as well as stores like Fab Scrap (New York, NY and Philadelphia, PA) and working in our local community to organize fabric swaps.

We ask Catherine some of our signature questions including how she got started in ballet costuming. We compare how ballet costuming is very different from working in the garment industry.  

I really loved hearing about her full circle moment at Designing For Dance at FIT.

Just a warning that in this episode, we talk about alcoholic cocktails (briefly).
