Costume Solutions was founded in 2004 by company director Jo Woodcroft. With a degree in set and costume design Jo started her career as a designer in London in the mid 90’s. This eventually led to a reputation for designing and creating special effects costume for film, television, pop promos, theatre and live events both in the UK and Australia.
Today Costume Solutions is based at the Mary Street Studios, St Peters, in Sydney’s Inner West. Close to the city and the airport, the workshop is part of a thriving visual arts and design community with many other companies operating within the entertainment industry located in this complex.
