The following were some of my costume projects in the show.
One piece velvet and nude power net leotard using negative appliques and embellished with Swarovski crystals. I designed the artwork, and did the draping, patterning, and fitting of the costumes for the twelve synchro swimmers of the show.
One piece leotard with a skirt attached. It used the negative applique technique and was embellished with Swarovski crystals. I did the artwork of the costume, the draping and the patterning.
One piece unitard in stretch lace fabric and a bra attached to it. Appliques were hand sewn and machine stitched on the neckline and sleeves. A gator and a head dress completed the look. I did the illustration, patterning, cutting, and fitting the performers.
The bra top was covered with strips of bias-cut distressed fabrics and the skirt was layers of Czarine fabrics stitched to a basque to give an organic look to the costume. I did the illustration, the patterning, the draping, fitting, and alteration.
Custom dye-sub print on Czarine fabric. The same creation process as the

The Koi fish design, a hand painting and foiling printing on a nude power net fabric, was an done by Jeff Fender. The patterns were laid on the nude power mesh fabric, sent out for the printing, and sewn together after. I did the illustration, patterning, and fittings on this costume.

Chiffon and chiffon lace fabrics in bustier top, handkerchief skirt, and built-in shorts. This was one of the few costumes that did not go in the water as it was an aerial act. I did the illustration, draping, patterning, and fitting on these costumes.
Made of nude power mesh, this costume had intricate leaves appliques allover the leotard. A detachable skirt made with leaf shaped cut fabrics all sewn on a waistband attached on the drop waist. This was another one of the few costumes that did not go in the water as much as the others as it was an aerial act. I did the illustration, patterning, draping, and fitting on this costume.
