"I'm going to make everything around me beautiful- that will be my life." - Elsie de Wolfe.

“On-Set Dressers are good relationship builders by nature. They become trusted allies of Directors and Directors of Photography and call to confer with the Production Designer and Set Decorator when an unexpected change is requested. This position calls for a special skill set, which includes: a good eye, attention to detail, a friendly, cooperative personality who can also stand up for the Set Dec Department when called upon, strong rigging skills, matched with the mind of someone who anticipates sudden changes and can read a situation.” - S.D.S.A.
