This is my first costume design, entitled Alice in Wonderland (Without Insurance). My professor wasn't too sure what assign me and so he directed me to try a Wonderland concept. This version, inspired by our current healthcare issues, doesn't have an actual script, yet.
Here is Alice, a young woman in her 20's who gets into a wreck and is hospitalized, soon thereafter it is learned she has no coverage, and so the adventure through our current American health care system begins. I wanted Alice to take on a new persona, not the cutesy and precocious icon we all know. She's the typical, cutesy, Wonderbread Alice. She's a struggling college student instead of a prim, fanciful, little girl. She does maintain the blue, but aside from her thin gown is naked to this strange world she has wound up in.
