While the costumes are pretty complex, Toybina says the production only has about three-to-four months to design them.
Then, its a month and a half of construction.
That becomes the most challenging creative part for me, Toybina said.
Egg
This, as Toybina puts it, is one of the most interesting ones.
Tree
As with Egg, this extremely happy tree is one of the seasons most surprising concepts.
It was hands-on experiments and following our gut instincts, Toybina said.
What can we do thats different?
What can we do that hasnt been done before?
What can fabric do?
Those are the key details that really pushed us over the edge with season two, she said.
I wanted to create something that was Victorian and was vintage and did have this big presence onstage.
We venture to be as experimental as possible, Toybina said.
What hasnt been done?
What would we like to see thats very different for this character?
The jewelry is inspired by gumball machines, while the clothing is meant to have a Japanese-inspired fashion feeling.
Its a Chinese animal, but its veryHarajuku-ish as far as clothing, Toybina said.
Butterfly
With this one, we go from goofy to skintight.
I decided to hand-bead and hand-stone the entire costume, Toybina said.
The character comes with a crown-like head, as well as a collection of spider legs.
Youre looking at somebody you know thats possible six inches taller, she said.
It becomes even more of a guessing game.
Skeleton
Im very much inspired by Tim Burton, Toybina said.
The mask sits inside a theatrical environment, as Toybina puts it, made up of petals.
