Audience comments

In order to test my costume and the audience reaction on it, I made a walk through the city center on it, asking people to share their thoughts and comments on the costume. Unfortunately I didn't manage to find an assistant to photograph me, so I can't provide any visuals of my research.
Here are some of the comment I managed to write down:

"Very interesting work, I didn't notice the recycled materials"

"I like the colors and the white dots"

"Very brave idea. I would dance ballet in this costume"

"It's nice for alternative theatre"

"Good costume. It looks simple but it's not if you look at it."

I also managed to contact some of my friends from the "Get Involved 17" group and here are the comments they made about my costume:

"It really looks like a snowflake costume. I think the white dots are essential"

"I think it will look better if you shorten the uper netting layer so the blue could be easily seen, because I didn't notice it at first and it's important."

"You look at it and can't really notice the unusual materials. It's a nice mixture. At first, when I hear "A costume made of a mixture of recylcled materials and fabric", I imagine an obvious difference between the type of material and You've found an effective way to remove that difference."

"I think the cellophane decoration makes the costume really alive and is a good refence to a real snowflake"

Looking at the comments I noticed that my risk referencing a costume with bad reviews, had become the most successful aspect of the costume and I had managed to turn a flaw into an effect. 
Another conclusion which could be made is that the comments are very similar to the reviews of Northern ballet's Nutcracker in terms of aliveness and realism in the costume. The audience relates it to the character.
The colors as a reference have also achieved their aims. The only negative comment conrcern the length of the white layer of the tutu in order to reveal the colors better. But thinking of that aspect, I also consider the fact that in actual performance during the movement of the dancer the blue layer of plastic bags will be revealed and will reach the audience.
