Check this video out:

It features all kinds of interesting things. Even has chest/breast inflation around 1:50, with hand pumps! Whoever designed the show for this MUST have been into inflation. The inflatable costumes at the end are just awesome!
I love the part where the girl looks like she's being engulfed by her dress at around 2:55.
I just wish there was more in the video because it looks like the show has a lot more in it that was cut out.

Here's the site for the performance group: http://www.bedlamoz.com/
It has some more videos on it that you can download.

Ah, performance art! Reminds me of the Mummenschanz stuff from the 70s a bit...but with pumps. :)

There are some stills in the photo gallery on the site, including some large ones of the end dresses. Alas, just one small one of the BE scene -- but there is more of the inflatable stuff, including the chest/breast stuff, in the Catwalk in Singapore video on their site.

Funky find, thanks!

Interesting. Sparks a lot of ideas in the head. Nice find.

Still, I was hoping to see a full body inflatable suit. It felt like a missed opportunity. Such a tease! Nonetheless, the dresses were neat and I agree the engulfing part was amusing.

(Did any other previous WoW addicts think of plagueworms when they saw the yellow inflatable cylinders? :P )

Yea I would have also liked it if the dress was more of a full body suit, that would have really made it an awesome video. Another thing I would like to see is the cut out parts of the costumes inflating. And if you notice it looks like those giant yellow worm costumes are double layered or sided, which is odd.

One big thing though is that on their webpage it says the actual performance time is 30 minutes. With the youtube video only being a little over 3 minutes, that leaves A LOT cut out that could potentially be very interesting.

If anyone can find more videos or photos of their catwalk performance that would be excellent. As I believe there might be a lot more to it. They are based out of the UK but most of their shows seem to be all in Europe or Asia though. So if there are videos they're probably all in different languages...
