    A doll’s house Costume I think the costumes used in ‘A doll’s house’ were quite symbolic and symbolized the characters various roles in society. When we first see Nora she is wearing a shiny blue dress which shows she is well off which gives the audience the idea that she has a degree of elegance about her. In those times women dressed modestly and this was an example of the types of clothes they were supposed to wear while around the house. They were expected to cook‚ clean and look after
