Question

Colour in costume is mainly used to express:

• A. Weather
• B. Emotions and mood of the character
• C. Stage decor
• D. Audience reaction

Hint:

Costume colours tell the audience about the nature and feelings of a character.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Step 1: Ask what a costume belongs to.
A costume is worn by a character. So whatever colour expresses must be about that character.

Step 2: Use this idea on each option.
Weather belongs to the setting. Stage decor belongs to the set. Audience reaction belongs to the viewers. Only emotion and mood belong to the character.

Step 3: Support with examples.
A queen in deep red may seem strong or angry. A widow in white shows sorrow. A villain in dark colours looks threatening. In each case the colour tells us about the person's feelings or nature.

Final Answer:
The answer is option (2), emotions and mood of the character.
