Makers name: Maggie Hofmann
Rococo Winifred Sanderson is an original redesign of the classic costume from the movie Hocus Pocus imagining the character set in a late 18th century robe a la polonaise. While creative license was taken with the historical time period, the costume was patterned and constructed with couture costume techniques and is custom fit to the maker’s measurements, including all the underpinnings and understructures. The wig was also created with a custom hairline and internal Fosshape structure to support the accessories.
