'''June Hudson''' was the credited [[costumes|costumer]] on several stories of the later [[Tom Baker]] era on ''[[Doctor Who]]''. She was particularly closely associated with the costuming of the character of [[Romana]] — both in her [[Romana I|first]] and [[Romana II|second]] televised incarnations. She was responsible for both [[Mary Tamm]]'s iconic and introductory all-white floor-length dress and many of [[Lalla Ward]]'s eclectic outfits. She was so identified with Ward's ever-changing wardrobe that she was a featured interviewee of the documentary, ''[[Lalla's Wardrobe]]'', on the ''[[Warrior's Gate]]'' DVD release. | '''June Hudson''' was the credited [[costumes|costumer]] on several stories of the later [[Tom Baker]] era on ''[[Doctor Who]]''.

She also had profound impact on the [[Fourth Doctor]]'s look. She created his latter-day "plum" outfit and scarf, which was seen throughout [[Season 18]]. She was the first designer to employ the self-referential [[question mark]] on an item of [[the Doctor]]'s clothing — though she did so very reluctantly, at the behest of then [[producer]] [[John Nathan-Turner]].{{ | She also had profound impact on the [[Fourth Doctor]]'s look.

Although she never | Although she never finalised designs for anything in the [[Peter Davison]] era, specifically, her influence was directly felt until ''[[Time-Flight]]'', thanks to her design for [[Tegan Jovanka]]'s air hostess uniform. Also, she did some preliminary designs on the [[Fifth Doctor]]'s costume, and takes credit for putting [[Peter Davison|Davison]] in [[cricket]] whites. She is quick to point out, however, that she was not responsible for the "red edge on his coat" or the "ridiculous pyjama-striped trousers". ([[DWM 427|DWM #427]]) | ||
