Imagination... life is your creation

ZIEGFELD FOLLIES
the personification of sexy eclectic, electric energy!




The Ziegfeld Follies were a series of elaborate theatrical productions on Broadway in New York City from 1907 through 1931, inspired by Folies Bergere of Paris. The Follies were lavish revues... like an elaborate high class vaudeville show. Many of the top entertainers include Will Rogers, Helen Morgan, W.C. Fields, Eve Arden, and Gilda Gray.

The girls were usually decked in elaborate costumes by couture designers Erte, Lady Duff Gordon, or Ali Ben Hagan.

Which leads me to my second inspiration in life... the great legend himself, Erte. Known as the illustrator behind the early Vogue covers.
