I am a costume designer from Poland, currently based in Dublin. With roots in historical costuming, my work has grown to focus on corsetry, combining technical craft with a passion for dramatic silhouette, period accuracy, and live performance. I have worked across television, film, and opera, and alongside my academic work, I take on private made-to-measure corsetry commissions.My major project places Oscar Wilde's "Salome" in a cabaret theatre, reimagining the Moon as a showgirl. Her costume is a beaded corset bodysuit with silk chiffon drapery, inspired by the theatrical glamour of Erté and the visual traditions of Old Hollywood showgirl costume.Alongside this, my minor project is a remake of Christine's Masquerade Gown from "The Phantom of the Opera" (2004), originally designed by Alexandra Byrne, realised in silver taffeta with a historical late 1860s silhouette. Stripped back from the original's ornate detailing, the gown features a double bustle skirt with a white cotton petticoat and white tulle overlay, supported by a corset and elliptical crinoline.
