Costumes for 'Time's Up'

Harriet

Harriet had two outfits to wear during the opening scene. The first being her pyjamas which consisted of  red tartan pyjama bottoms with a darker red sports tee. These items were not meant to be put together as a set but we wanted to portray Harriet as a typical teenager that doesn't really care. However both items being red could symbolize the movies theme as romance, as red is seen as the colour of passion and lust. The second outfit which Harriet wears is her everyday wear which is a red plaid shirt over the top of a simple white t-shirt with some writing on with black skinny jeans and black boots. Both outfits would be considered warm with the long bottoms and sleeves, we choose to do this so that the audience would be aware that this was meant to be set during winter/spring time.

Louise

The character Louise, although only in the scene for a few seconds also had a specific outfit and hers consisted of, light skinny jeans and a light coloured t-shirt. These light colours were trying to portray Louise as more of a girly-girl compared to Harruet which would follow the saying of 'opposites attract' as Harriet is seen wearing very dark colours.

Waitress
For the waitress we decided on the usual waitress outfit of dark clothes under an apron as this is simple and would help the audience to understand who this character is as if it weren't for the apron it would be difficult to understand who this person was meant to be.
