Adeline Santello is a New York based costumer. She graduated from Syracuse University, with a BFA in theatre design and technology and a concentration in costumes. Afterwards she moved to the city and completed the costume design apprenticeship at The Juilliard School.

She grew up outside of Boston and has always had a love for theatre and creating clothes. That merged into a path in costume design. She has long been interested in the psychological aspects of costumes. One of her favorite parts of the process is breaking down a character’s backstory.

She has worked in New York and regionally in theatre, dance, and opera. Places she’s worked include The Glimmerglass Festival, The Williamstown Theatre Festival, The Fisher Center at Bard, and on Broadway productions.

If she’s not knee deep in a costume stock you can find her listening to Agatha Christie books and thrifting DVDs.
