I love picking out outfits for people so I decided to take advantage of that and do this option and design costumes for a play that I love. I decided to design costumes for the main characters of Grease, which includes Danny, Sandy, The T-Birds, and The Pink Ladies. I am very excited to create the costumes for these characters in Grease because there are so many pictures on the internet that are going to help me.
Grease is a 1978 American musical directed by Randal Kleiser. Grease takes place in the fifties. The main characters are Danny, Sandy, members of the T-Birds and the Pink Ladies. In the summer Danny and Sandy meet on a beach and fall in love. When summer ends they part for school and hope that their relationship will continue. Sandy ends up going to the same school as Danny and they meet again. Danny and Sandy talk but the love does not seem to be there anymore because Danny is around his friends. At the end, Danny and Sandy decide to change and they are in love again.
For Sandy, at the beginning she is a very conservative young woman so I chose a conservative outfit for her. I would have Sandy wear these dresses at the beginning of the play. Sandy’s hair and makeup would be very nice and neat to go along with the costume. These Costumes show that Sandy is a very nice and sweet young lady.
For Sandy, at the end she changes and become wilder. She is no longer the conservative good girl anymore. Her hair and makeup will be wilder for this costume. She lets herself go and wears this wild costume.
For Danny, he is a member of the T-Birds and he dresses pretty much the same through the play. I designed his costume so that he wears a black shirt and pants and his T-Bird jacket most of the time.
The T-Birds is the groups that Danny hangs out with. They are a wild crowd and they smoke. They all dress alike. They wear jeans with a white shirt with their T-Bird Jackets.
The Pink Ladies is the group the Sandy gets into and they all wear dresses and pink coats. They are also a little on the wild side, but Sandy does not let them persuade her into doing stuff. The Pink Ladies wear dresses and pink coats that have their group name on them. At the end The Pink Ladies are the ones that help Sandy transition into the wilder women she becomes.
