Headbands in Michael Grandage's A Midsummer Night's dream

The gorgeous new production of A Midsummer Night's Dream, the fourth production in Michael Grandage's  season at the Noel Coward theatre, St Martins Lane, starring David Walliams and Sheridan Smith.

Set and Costume design by Christopher Oram, A Midsummer Night's Dream is sensual, sensitive, classy and romantic. Love love love Christopher's designs, having worked with him on Evita in 2006 and the Donmar Westend season in 2009, I was lucky enough to work on A Midsummer Night's Dream during tech week, with the costume supervisor Poppy Hall and Wardrobe Master Tim Gradwell. 

Two of my headbands made the play, worn by Helena played by Katherine Kingsley and Hermia played by Susannah Fielding. Helena wearing a cappuccino headpiece with sequin flower embellishment and Hermia wearing a satin headband with an off-white vintage fabric flower with sequins.

Here's a little clip of the play Watch Here

It's a fabulous production, go see it if you get the chance.
