Amy Orner
Costume Designer
Amy Orner (she/her) is a New York based interdisciplinary theatre artist with a focus in costume design and puppetry originally from Philadelphia. She is currently completing her studies at Fordham University for Costume Design and has also studied Fashion Design and Couture Craftsmanship at the Paris College of Art.
Amy designs with a focus on collaboration and actor comfort. She lives off the philosophy that in order to perform our best we have to feel our best and much of that can come from a warm environment open to conversation.
The mix of her love for historical research, fashion knowledge, and people watching skills combine to make her design style filled with attention to detail. She also loves some good and organized paperwork and will never be caught with an un-updated costume pieces list! Above all, she sees herself as a storyteller through clothing and is never afraid to incorporate color, high fashion elements, and her personal closet staples, ribbons and bows into her designs!
