This article discusses the creation of costumes as a field of design, highlighting their similarities and differences in relation to fashion. It is a theoretical analysis with practical application, linking design elements and principles with the objectives of creation of costumes. The methodology is based on a bibliographic review using contributions from authors such as Dondis (1991), Jones (2011), and Lupton and Philips (2008), correlating basic design theories with the practice of costume design. The study emphasizes the application of visual elements and principles, such as line, shape, color, and harmony, in the development of stage costumes, connecting with the author’s experiences. At the end, a practical class proposal is presented to integrate the discussed concepts, aiming at the training of new professionals in the costume field. The results highlight the importance of understanding costume design as a design field, capable of communicating concepts and meeting the specific needs of a stage production.
