On Sourcing Materials For the Costumes

"We're talking about a story that happened 30 and 40 years ago — most of the materials don't even exist anymore. Before fashion [trends] change, the textile industry changes. Today, finding a plastic fabric used in the '90s is really hard. For example, I couldn't find sequins that I liked for the outfit Selena wore during the Matamoros show. One day we were in San Diego, and I suddenly saw something sparkly in the back of a truck. I asked them if I could get in the truck, they said yes, and that's how I found them!"
