Paloma Young (born 1979) is an American costume designer.

A native of California, Young received a bachelor's degree in social history from University of California, Berkeley in 2000, and continued her education with a Master of Fine Arts in costume design from the graduate theatre program at University of California, San Diego.[1] She has design credits for shows at the La Jolla Playhouse, Old Globe, South Coast Repertory, New York Theatre Workshop, Second Stage Theatre, and Berkeley Repertory Theater amongst others.[2]

She is known for using found materials such as thrift-store garments and reworking them to achieve a "tactile" effect. She has said that costume is one of the most relatable elements of a production and that it helps make a strong connection with audiences.[3]

Nominations and awards

At the 66th Tony Awards, she won a Tony Award for Best Costume Design in a Play for her work on Peter and the Starcatcher.[4]

She was also nominated for a Tony Award for Best Costume Design in a Musical for her work on Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 in 2017.[5][6]

At the 44th Laurence Olivier Awards, Young was nominated for Best Costume Design for her work in a 2019 musical & Juliet and received another Tony nomination for the Broadway production.[7]
