Emily Gunshor is a New York based Costume Designer who works with filmmakers and actors to create costumes that tell a story, and convey the psychology of characters. Emily believes that costumes is one of the first stops in developing the anatomy of a story. A former classical ballet dancer, she has always had an eye for nuance and, when an injury sidelined her dancing career, building costumes for the company was the organic next step. She quickly fell in love with expressing personality, individuality and emotion through wardrobe.

Over the last 12 years, Emily has honed her craft working with role models such as Ann Roth, Sandy Powell, Colleen Atwood, Leesa Evans and Sarah Edwards. She has had the opportunity to work on many types projects from drama to comedy to period both in New York and on location. After making her debut as a co-costume designer on NEIGHBORS 2, Gunshor subsequently worked on a number of projects for Jax Media, designing the New York units for DANCE ACADEMY: THE MOVIE, and the Stephon Marbury biopic MY OTHER HOME and the Louis C.K. movie I LOVE YOU DADDY. Her television credits include the pilot episode for Frankie Shaw’s Showtime series S.M.I.L.F., Season 3 of Bravo’s ODD MOM OUT, Tracy Morgan’s THE LAST O.G for TBS, and the upcoming Hasan Minaj GOATFACE special for Comedy Central. Gunshor designed the costumes for HALLOWEEN and HALLOWEEN KILLS directed by David Gordon Green for Blumhouse/Miramax and is currently wrapping up STARGIRL for DC/WB.
