Costume Designer
Nadia is an award-winning costume designer with over twenty-five years in film and television and a sharp, instinctive eye for character. Trained at London College of Fashion, she began in fashion editorial, honing her sense of colour, texture and silhouette, before becoming one of London's leading commercials designers and winning Best Costume at the British Television Advertising Craft Awards. Her design work spans features, television and short films across comedy, period and drama, and she brings a deep understanding of contemporary and historical dress, actors and budgets. Having worked at every level of the costume department, she runs a calm, well-organised team. Based in the South East with UK and EU passports, Nadia is ready to work wherever the project takes her.
