COSTUMES
We are so proud of our bespoke costume collection. It felt wrong not having a page dedicated especially to them. Designers William F Henderson and Liz Gurney have handmade and designed works of art that leave our clients in awe.
​
This is just the beginning.
The Making of 'The Showgirl'
British designer William F Henderson created this truly exquisite masterpiece especially for POISE. We told him our vision and he created everything we could imagine and more.
He created beautiful sketches and talked us through fabric options. We were inspired by Art Nouveau posters, Ballet and Burlesque.
We adored his sketches but we knew we wanted more sparkle and drama. Will certainly did not disappoint.
When we received this sketch we knew 'THIS IS IT' it felt as If Will had created a fairytale character that embodied POISE and everything we had imagined for the brand.
Then came THE FITTINGS.
Inside What felt like the personification of Will's brain his workshop is truly one of a kind (Just like him) We discussed a lot of finer details, including how to ensure the costume worked on multiple bodies as we are an event company and also how to make the costume a whole performance piece.
