‘Jean-Jacques Delmotte uses colour very selectively, and occasional “noble” fabrics like an echo from a more glamorous era’

Jean-Jacques Delmotte is a Paris-born costume designer whose work spans theatre and opera, with productions presented on many of the world's leading stages. Trained in architecture at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and fashion at La Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne, he brings a distinctive blend of structural precision and sartorial craftsmanship to his designs. His long-standing collaboration with director Laurent Pelly, alongside partnerships with other stage directors, reflects a highly collaborative approach and an ability to create costumes that respond closely to the dramatic and visual identity of each production.
