Outdoor Narrative Costume

For the costume for the outdoor scenes in the forest, town and the beach, we further emphasised the theme of Levi Strauss' Binary opposites theory. Therefore, the costume decision outdoors contrasts in comparison to the costume for the indoor scenes. For the outdoor scenes, we wanted the actress to appear relatively innocent and presented in light colours to contrast against the dark colours of the costume worn indoors as she is finally feeling free and happy outdoors.








The actress will be presented in a white dress to portray a sense of innocence and freedom compared to the constraints of her indoor outfit. It is also white in colour which is light and, therefore, contrasts against the dark colours worn indoors conveying happiness.





She is also wearing wellies to add an enthusiastic and adventurous vibe to present her as being prepared to finally face the outdoors.

Her hair is down and flowing freely to show that she is free from the constraints of her home rather than being confined behind closed doors.

She is also wearing a necklace with a key on it as a hidden symbol. This is suggestive of the fact that it is the key she is using to escape from the confined location of her home. This is symbolic and a hidden message to suggest she is no longer trapped and has escaped into the outdoors.
