Autumn Bendall

Artist | Costume Designer

Autumn is an NYC based artist and costume designer originally from Orlando, Florida. She began her costuming career at Universal Studios Orlando as a Wardrobe Supervisor at Fear Factor Live and the SuperStar Parade. She studied Film and Art at the University of Central Florida where she found her calling as a costumer on student film productions. After fulfilling a lifelong dream of moving to New York in 2014, she began to work as a Dresser and Wardrobe Supervisor Off-Broadway. Eventually she was hired as the Assistant Costume Shop Manager at RWS Entertainment Group and is an award-winning Costume Designer. Her work can be seen on cruise ships and at theme parks worldwide.

In 2020 she began her art business, Pincushion Pinups, as a way to cultivate her passion for creating art. Though much of her focus is on pinups with a spooky or kitschy twist, she also creates cross stitch, rhinestone sculptures, paintings, and sewn crafts. She does the craft show circuit, some favorites being Dark Force Fest in Parsippany, NJ and Queens Craft Brigade in Astoria, Queens.

Autumn lives in NYC with her wonderful husband Chris and their Miniature Schnauzer, Winston.
