Jacy Alpert is a costume designer from Boston, Massachusetts. She is currently working towards her BFA in Theatrical Design & Production with a concentration in costume design at Emerson College.

She began her costume design journey in Newton North High School’s TheatreInk costume department. In the costume shop, she learned how to sew, upcycle, break down scripts, and be a member and leader of a team. She was part of the costumes crew on over 15 productions, with roles as a crew member, dresser, wardrobe manager, assistant designer, and lead designer. Following her high school career, she attended the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising, where she spent one year in the fashion design program. There, she gained deeper technical knowledge of sewing, draping, pattern drafting, technical flat sketching, fashion sketching and rendering, in addition to Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. 

Jacy has worked on short and feature length films, TV pilots, commercials, and theatrical productions as costume designer, wardrobe stylist, and wardrobe manager. 

Outside of her costume design work, Jacy loves spending time in nature, writing, and reading.
