Brian Froud’s Costume Sketches from Labyrinth

Brian Froud -Woman Ballroom Costume Design I Labyrinth, 1984 Graphite, ink 16 x 20″

I ran across this a few weeks ago, a gallery in NYC is showing the Froud’s work. Including sketches from The Good and Bad Fairy Book, Dark Crystal, a few things I don’t recognize and of course Labyrinth.

I am not located in NYC, nor am I heading up there any time soon.  So I’m quite happy to see the collection is online and even better the costume designs for the ballroom dancers are included, along with Jareth’s armor/coat, goblins, and other assorted puppets.

This will making coming up with my own inspired version easier. Time to break out my pencils and water-color.
