Flowers serve as costume here, with the women dressed as blossoms in a poster for the Hurly-Burly Extravaganza and Refined Vaudeville. Posters like this were printed in bold color to draw crowds to playhouses and variety stages, where spectacle often mattered as much as the plot. Stage designers of the period frequently used floral and botanical costumes for chorus lines, so the image also reflects the taste for lavish, decorative display in popular entertainment. Look closely at how the figures are arranged around the lettering, since the layout was meant to catch the eye from across a street.
