Costume



This is a picture of the considered costume for our main character laid out. We will be conforming to our research into the outfits of young females in British dramas by styling our character in shorts and a loose top. 
Frayed denim shorts: denim is a common material worn by most people; this shows how 'normal' she really is the frays around the edges suggest rebellious undertones, reflecting her personality and foreboding her actions later in the film.
T-shirt: a loose fitting t-shirt would be a common item to be worn by a teenager. The print of a unicorn on this particular tshirt would be related with fantasy and childness, suggesting her innocence.
Boots: These show she is young and edgy. Also, chunky boots may be associated with being rebellious but could also be seen as fashionable and are a common item worn by teenagers, again showing her normality.
Hoody:The hoody that the character puts on about half way through shows that she is trying to hide her identity. For this, we are conforming to the
'hoody culture' of rioters and styling the main character in a dark, plain typical kind of hoody. Using a branded hoody may suggest that she is better off than others even when taking bad actions and being part of a group.
