Maid
The maid's costume looks simple and plain. This is to suggest her status within society. Her costume consists of a plain white t-shirt, a dark brown apron, a brown skirt, and a mop hat.
Elizabeth's costume needed to portray her higher class. We dressed her in a black dress, with a white, decorative lace collar, which was joined with a black jewel. The sleeves had lace cuffs to add a more expensive feel to the costume.
Billy
Billy's costume will consist of black trousers, a white, regency styled shirt, and a brown waistcoat. We have decided to use brown colours, to show his background as a farm boy, and to imply warmth and the safety of home for Elizabeth. We decided that this brown waistcoat would suit the period of the film more. We wanted to imply Billy's farm background, but we also wanted to suggest that he is continually trying to impress Elizabeth throughout the film.
