Our choice of costumes need to be representative of our genre, Pop!. Typically costumes within pop tend to sexualise the artist and that is what we will do, through the use of tight fitting and revealing costumes.

This costume first appears in the chorus of the song, "Bless your soul you got your...". The dancers wear this costume when dancing against the "fiery background" we replace the green screen with, and so we wanted the costume to be rebellious and sexy, as both red and orange have connotations such as anger, passion, love and sex. The costume is a simple black leotard with a mesh strip, teamed with a pair of ripped black tights. The dancers will then either wear a leather or denim cut off jacket for a rock chick look. To complete the look the dancers will wear either bows made from Newspaper or an old fashioned phone hand set .... IN THEIR HAIR. Very Gagaesque. Make-up will include Black Lipstick and dark heavy makeup.

This costume first appears in the introduction to the song. The artist will be in her bedroom "talking" on the phone. We wanted this costume to look similar to sexy lingerie. We decided on a leopard print leotard as its sexy but also very animalistic, representing our artists bitchy side when it comes to the rumours. The leotard also looks like underwear without being too innapropriate for our age. The artists make-upis scene will include big eyeliner and red lips!

This costume is introduced during the bridge of the song. Its a very simple costume as the background will be busy. The costume is the simple black leotard with the mesh stripe used earlier. Make up will again be very dark and smoky with black lipstick. Hair may remain the same dependent on decisions made later, and we may add an element of floaty fabric that will move to the soft music.

This is the final costume that appears in our music video. Dancers will dance against a white background so we wanted a costume that would stand out. We decided on a polo neck long sleeved lipstick red leotard. The popping colour is typical within the pop genre but also carries connotations such as sex and anger which are huge themes throughout the song. The leotard isn't as revealing as the other costumes and has a unique look to it. Make Up for this section will be bright red lipstick and eye make up will be fiery streaks of orange and red.
