Burlesque

Burlesque collection poster in a theatrical cabaret style. Red velvet curtains frame a Blind Ant Design Fiction Collections marquee on the left, with the title Burlesque in illuminated red letters. The right side presents six numbered collection elements with sepia and red-tinted images: a military case with pink underwear, antique lingerie, a factory of yellow shoes, a magic wand beside a petticoat, a fashion label called The Hemline, and four silhouetted performers. A woman in burlesque costume and a typewriter appear along the bottom.

A collection of six design-fiction objects that use domestic surfaces to expose assumptions about identity, technology and bodily sovereignty.
