A great costume isn't created by chance—it's built through deep research. National Award-winning costume designer Pia Benegal shares how every project begins with the script. From understanding a character's backstory and relationships to researching fabrics, colors, textures, and even tailoring choices based on an actor's skin tone and body type, every detail helps bring a character to life. Costume design is storytelling through clothing—and the audience often never sees the countless hours of research behind it. ✨ What's one film or series where the costumes stayed with you long after watching? #PiaBenegal #CostumeDesign #FilmCostume #CharacterDesign #trending
