About me ...

Hi, I'm a Cornish chap who after school ran away to University to study Drama; it was there i discovered the joys of design. Those endless Sunday afternoons being dragged around Cornwall's stately homes had finally paid off, and my love of history had found its niche.

I've worked solidly as a designer all my life...and hope to for many more years to come. I still hold a passion for Cornwall and can think of no happier time, or more beautiful place, than standing at the top of a cliff staring out to sea watching seals bob around whilst breathing in that glorious sea air. I have many friends still in Cornwall, many are artists and I envy their life there...maybe one day.

I hope you enjoy my site and my work.

My work in Theatre ...

My theatre work has focussed mainly on costume, but as previously mentioned I do design sets as well. I move freely from the fringe to the West End, from Youth and Community projects to Broadway.

Costume, for me, is a clear illustration of the melding of character and concept. My work is closely linked to that of the actor, and as with any endeavour should be an act of collaboration and artistry. As well as my theatre work I have undertaken many high profile corporate events and exhibitions. From BA and Harrods to private fancy dress parties for Coca Cola in the south of France, as well as creating outfits for Elton John birthday parties and his celebrity guests.

I truly love my work and the people that I'm lucky enough to work with.

My work in Film ...

My film work has been as senior costumier working closely with the designer to bring their concept to the screen. An extensive knowledge of period, an attention to detail, fabric choice, cut and fit and finish and appropriateness to character are areas that are vital in the execution of my role.

I have been lucky enough to have worked with many great designers in the film industry; many are listed in my credits section. I have been lucky enough to have worked with some truly great actors on some amazing projects.

From both actors and designers I have learnt much and I value the experiences that both have brought me.

Welcome to Tim Heywood Costume Design

Thank you for looking at my site.

Here you can find selected images from my portfolio and credits from my theatre and film work.

In the theatre I work as a costume designer, but I do design sets as well, it’s just not many people know that!

The film and television credits are from my role as senior costumier with a London based costume house, where I was lucky enough to work with some of the world’s leading costume designers and actors.

I have a passion for Youth and Community theatre, and I’m a visiting tutor in costume design at a couple of Universities.

There is also a page where you will find my contact details.

I hope you enjoy looking at my work, I love doing it.

All the best,

Tim Heywood
