Does anyone have any costume ideas for Bianca in Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew?
I saw a film version of The Taming of the Shrew where all the costumes were a mix of red-orange, white, and khaki. Bianca wore a white dress with a pale sash. Katherine wore a white dress with a red satin corset. (This would be the American Conservatory Theatre's production in 1976) I saw a stage version set in the 1970s where Kate was a punk rocker and Bianca was the girl next door. Basically, you want Bianca to be dressed conventionally, in contrast to Kate's more idiosyncratic look. This will underline their characters.

What are some modern adaptations of at least three of Shakespeare's plays?
If by this you mean screen adaptations of Shakespeare's plays which have a modern setting, but use Shakespeare's words, you might want to watch Romeo+Juliet, directed by Baz Luhrmann with Leonardo diCaprio and Claire Danes, 1996; Hamlet with Patrick Stewart and David Tennant, 2010; Macbeth directed by Geoffrey Wright and starring Sam Worthington, 2006; and Richard Loncraine's adaptation of Richard III set in the 1930's and starring Sir Ian McKellen, 1995. If you mean screenplays which use plot elements of Shakespeare's plays but create new dialogue for them, the BBC adapted Macbeth, The Taming of the Shrew, Much Ado About Nothing and A Midsummer Night's Dream with new dialogue and settings as a series called Shakespeare Retold in 2007. Even further removed from Shakespeare are films inspired by Shakespearean plots such as 10 Things I Hate About You (inspired by Taming of the Shrew) or O (inspired by Othello)

Where can I buy costume for bianca in Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew?
There is no set costume for any Shakespearean character so you probably have a Bianca costume in your closet. Bianca was a girl who conformed to all social norms and to the stereotype of a well-behaved modest girl in contrast to her sister. What that looks like depends on the context of the way the director is approaching the play. A nice drab shapeless Muslim dress and a hijab might work if you want to set it in Afghanistan. So might a letter-sweater, kilt and knee socks if you want to set it in 1950s USA.
