	Who is this Lara person anyway?
	I am a costume and wardrobe person from New York City and a member of the Theatrical Wardrobe Union Local #764, I.A.T.S.E. I have been obsessed with and sewing historic costume since childhood. Despite my Parents claim that "no-one makes any money playing with costumes", I have been "playing" professionally with costumes for over 14 years now. Most of my work has focused around Film & TV lately but I also work with Theatre, Opera and Print media as well. (A woman obsessed) I do have a dangerous weakness for yard sales, flea markets and E-Bay. (I am working on the whole self control thing). I collect (and covet): Antique corsets (pre-1915), anything related to antique corsets, period patterns (especially the early 1900s & 1930's!), Antique lace, fabrics, trims, period garments, costume history books and periodicals, and unusual antique keys. Lara's favorite escape from reality is to travel and scuba dive Oh, and I love all animals. Especially big mushy dogs, white ferrets and chubby red cats!
