Scene one of Work Mates Episode One – ‘The Call Centre’, takes place at Tom and Nathan’s graduation ceremony, and therefore a couple of gowns are needed as costumes. In scene two, Nathan is again seen wearing his gown in the scene where they are sat at home. Due to the fact that robes are very expensive to hire I decided to call on a couple of friends who study Fashion Design to make them for me. Over the last couple of days the main gowns have been created, only leaving the coloured sashes to be completed.
The garments have turned out brilliantly and I owe the two girls a big favour. They have gone out of their way to help me out and I have saved a lot of money!
Below are a few shots of the robes being made, from initial template design to the finished product:
