Biography
Shuna Harwood (born Essex, 1940) is a British costume designer. She was nominated for an Academy Award in the category Best Costume Design for the film Richard III (1995). In addition to film costume design, Harwood also worked as a fashion illustrator and a writer/illustrator of children's books.
Harwood designed the costumes for Ian McKellen's 1995 film production of Richard III, which was set in a fictional version of England in 1934. McKellen noted that Harwood's approach to using original vintage clothing was beneficial: "It’s very helpful to put people in clothes which tell something about their personalities, their professions, and their social standing". Later critics have commented on the "beautiful 1930s look" of the costumes, including slinky evening gowns and military detailing.
Harwood received the BAFTA award for Best Costume Design for her work on Richard III.
