Costume Research

I ecentially have to create a bird costume, as that is what the youngest sister has disguised herself as to escape Fitcher. So to give me inspiration I have researched different types of bird costume.

Swan Lake:

This particular Swan Lake costume is from a 1905 production, it was designed by Leon Bakst and worn by Anna Pavlova.

Below is an interesting image of an old theatrical bird costume:


Emily Gustafson creates fantastic cardboard bird costumes which look much more realistic, although I can't imagine they're easy to move/perform in:
