PLANNING: production of mine-en-scène - Elton John costume
From my mood-board and watching Rocketman, I decided to go with this iconic Elton John look:
Since Elton John's looks were very extravagant and expensive, I thought it would be easier and cheaper to create the look myself. However, I needed some help and ideas on how to start this look. I tried to look on Instagram to see whether anyone has recreated the look for Halloween and found a lady who did. I messaged her on Instagram for any tips and tricks:
From her advice, I bought a white leather jacket from PrettyLittleThing, silver gems, hot glue and lots of white ostrich feathers.

I bought some large 80's pink tinted glasses from ASOS, small stick on pearls and fabric glitter glue. I filmed parts of the process when making the glasses as I thought it would be good audio visual and 'my readers' may want to know how to make the glasses which could create a relationship with the readership. This was the result:
