Sherlock: Sarah Sawyer

Zoe Telford plays Dr. Sarah Sawyer, coworker and love interested of John Watson. Sarah Arthur the costume designer for Sherlock did a wonderful job at visually defining the character of Sarah Sawyer. To the credit of Sarah Arthur she defines Sawyer's image in only a few scenes and it is reinforced every time.

I loved the very feminine image of Sarah Sawyer, many of the pieces she wears have small details that make the costume designs exceptional. All the skirts worn by Sawyer have a pattern, worn with traditional blouses with small embellishments. What Sarah wears to work is classic with modern designs like a double collar and small pleats at the arms. Sarah’s color palette is mostly earth tones, similar to many of the other characters, and few wear bright colors.

Very feminine blouse, three buttons covering the shoulder, puff sleeves, pleats down the front, and with a peasant influence.
