appearance of a character or performer. Costume may refer to
the style of dress particular to a nation, a class, or a period. In
many cases, it may contribute to the fullness of the artistic,
visual world which is unique to a particular theatrical or
cinematic production. The most basic designs are produced to
denote status, provide protection or modesty, or provide visual
interest to a character.Costumes may be for a theater, cinema,
or musical performance but may not be limited to such.
Costume design should not be confused with costume
coordination which merely involves altering existing clothing,
although both create stage clothes.
