Wicked at Apollo, Victoria

Wicked was adapted from the 1995 book by Gregory Maguire and tells the stories of Glinda the Good and The Wicked Witch of the West and how they earned their names.

This is a good image showing the ensemble cast of Wicked wearing their Emerald City outfits.  Nearly all of these costumes appear to have been made asymmetrically and all using various shades of greens and yellows.  I think that this choice of asymmetrical design was done to show the quirkiness of The Land of Oz and how different they are to us.

In this image both Glinda and The Wicked Witch, Elphaba's costumes can be seen clearly.  Glinda's costume resemble a princess' dress with the sequins and sparkles and the use of pure, pale colours are used to show the goodness in her character.  On the other hand, Elphaba's costume is much darker to represent her wickedness.  When looking up closely at the detail the design look like leaves and bark to show her seperation to the people of Oz.
