General info :
Jane Petrie (born ca. 1967) is a Scottish costume designer.
She has been working as a costume designer for over fifteen years.

Her career began as a wardrobe mistress on films such as Notting Hill, Star Wars: Phantom Menace and Elizabeth but she says she got into the business quite late.

Jane left school at 16 and did not really know where her future lay.

She did a two-year art foundation course then her Highers at college rather than school.

She worked as a youth worker while she tried to find a creative path she might settle on.

"I had some sort of vague notion that I would like to get to art college at some point but I had not found the one thing I wanted to do," she says.

In the mid-80s, she moved to London with a group of friends who had graduated from art college.
"They were watching the Clothes Show with Caryn Franklin doing an insert about Wimbledon School of Art and the costume design course there and I said 'that's what I want to do'."
Three decades later she is at the top of her field and is sent scripts for all sorts of projects.

Jane Petrie was the costume designer for season two of the landmark series about the Queen.
Jane has worked as costume designer on projects as diverse as TV series Black Mirror and Top Boy and films such as Suffragette, Fish Tank, Moon and 28 Weeks Later.
She won an Emmy for her costumes on The Crown.
