I really am in awe. You have created costumes that are perfect for the books I’ve enjoyed for so many years. I really can’t wait to see the show. I want to see how they move and live in these clothes.
Thank you!! It is a labor of love. I have been out of the business for some time, and would only come back for Outlander (and my husband doing Outlander).
I saw a picture of Colum yesterday and wondered what kind of shoes he had on? They almost look like they were made from some sort of animal hoof-like material.
Thank you for sharing your work – it’s great to see how you have stayed so true to the eras whilst almost having a contemporary twist! Can’t wait to see your website!
I am interested in knowing if you still have need for craftspeople to work on costumes. I have sewn all my life, having my own custom home furnishings workroom for years. I also spin wool, knit and crochet. In college, I worked on costumes for the Theatre Department. I would love to get back into that work. Any openings?
Thank you Terry for sharing so much about your work on Outlander. Love the show and the costumes. I wanted to ask you why Dougal sometimes wears pants instead of a kilt? It seems that most of the other Highlanders wear kilts most times. Thanks!
Terry I admire your artistry greatly. I was wondering about the grey bonnet that Dougal MacKenzie wears. It appears larger than the typical modern tam one often sees. Is it what is referred to as a Highland Broad Bonnet? I would actually like to find one for my husband, in as much as he is a hunter and it appears warm. Any idea where I can purchase one or even a pattern to make one?
The costumes are all wonderful! I recently obtained a weathered family tartan (woven in Scotland) and would like to sew a costume much like Claire’s with the brown jacket (pictured above), stomacher, shift, petticoat, bum roll, and tartan skirt. I understand she has a handful of skirts and jackets to “mix and match.” Can you recommend a sewing pattern company or will you create patterns or offer sewing tips? I love them all!
Thank you, Barb

We are so grateful you have come back Terry. Your love of the books is evident in the care and thought put into the costumes. Thank you.

No, they are leather, but as his legs are deformed, we figured his feet would be affected too.

Totally awed here! I love your knowledge and expertise in making time appropriate costumes 😀
