Thinking themes

After I have finished my current project I will be starting my FMP(final major project) and in this we can choose any theme we want to get inspiration. I've been thinking about what I could use as my theme over christmas and I have thought about a couple and here they are.

Burlesque

When looking into Burlesque I really loved all the extreme costumes, the bustles, and corsets. I feel choosing a theme like this will be a massive challenge when creating garments but its something i can really 'sink my teeth into' and create something that is outrages and exhilarating. These two images I have added show some great silhouettes for designs.

Flappers

I have also considered looking into the flapper scene of the 20s-30s as I love all the fantastic dresses, and would enjoy looking into the famous dancers of the time who had a massive in pact on fashion as it was seen as such an outrages dance of the 20s(the Charleston). But as Ive already explored these eras on a previous project I dont think i'll be using this theme.
