The Actor's Wardrobe
Early in your career you'll work on lower-budget projects without a wardrobe department. Keep these pieces on hand and you'll be ready for most roles, from self-tapes to indie sets.
- No logos, ever. Solid colors read best on camera.
- Fit matters more than price. Tailor what you own.
- If a role needs something specific, or will ruin your clothes, production should cover it.
