Masked Singer costumes made in Portslade on display at Brighton Museum

Costumes from television show The Masked Singer have gone on display in a new exhibition in Sussex.

Making the Masked Singer, at Brighton Museum, features 24 costumes and seven character heads from seven series of the programme.

Some of the outfits on display are Hedgehog, Fox, Tree, Badger, Mushroom, Pigeon, Phoenix, Pufferfish and Dressed Crab, all worn by celebrity contestants on the ITV show.

Tim Simpson, creative director of Portslade-based Plunge Creations, said he was “thrilled” that fans would get the opportunity to see the costumes up close.

“It would be a wonderful opportunity for people who love arts and crafts. I’ve never seen this many costumes together in one place,” he told BBC Radio Sussex.

Speaking about his team’s work in making the costumes, he said: “We have become more skilled in bringing these characters to life.

“We’re a small local team in Portslade, but so much talent and dedication goes into it.”
