Amazing Dance Amazing Costume

So I went to see a dance performance yesterday by the Martha Graham Dance Company and am always interested to see what kinds of costumes the dancers are wearing. At some performances the costumes are very distracting, but at this particular performance, the costumes were amazing. I just wanted to run on stage and take some of the costumes home with me. Here is a glimpse of some of the costumes that were worn at the show and some others that just remind me how interesting the art of movement and fabric is. Correction B/W photography shot by Albert Watson and color photography shot by John Deane.

  2. Beautiful movement...I love the costume in the first photo. I'd love to run errands in something so flowy and comfortable like that.
