VERSAILLES

HELLO my name is KESTRA

performer proposal for Fox & Badge show on the 14th of September

I have this costume that seems to fit perfectly with your show, it’s based off pannier skirts but instead is an exaggeration of the “ideal” body shape back when I made it for a live/filmed piece in 2020. It was a commentary on the influence in pop culture of the Kardashian/Jenners.

But what I’m thinking is that it could be a walk about performance, moving through the the crowd ‘fully dressed’ then other performers come grab layers of my costume ‘ripping them off’ as I walk past, ultimately leaving me in just the pannier pieces.

We can do this rip off by using magnets which I have done before - think a campier version of Galliano S/S 94.
