Flo Foxworthy has been pursuing her childhood dream of making elaborate costumes for almost 30 years, and has worked on a variety of projects ranging from superhero suits for blockbuster films to heavily embellished stage costumes for some of the world's most notorious showgirls.

 

Flo is the former head of the Costume department at the Academy Award-winning special effects company Wētā Workshop, where she and her team made specialty costumes for films such as Avatar: The Way of Water, Ghost in the Shell, The Hobbit Trilogy, Thor: Love & Thunder and more.

​​

Flo currently works as a freelance costumer in New Zealand and around the world, with particular interests in pattern cutting for specialty costumes and the costume cross-over between physical and digital worlds.

​

Outside of the costume workroom, Flo's interests include weaving, travel, visiting museums and learning about textile-focused handcrafts.
