"The costumes are a kaleidoscope of full skirted whirls, patterned flowers, tight jeans and shirts."
- Rita Clarke, The Australian
"And then there are the costumes. . . . The costumes of the friends are a stand out, the girls in bright frothy pastels embellished with bold splashes of red and emerald, and the boys in high-waisted dark denims or dungarees, paired with plaids and stripes. The female chorus members dresses are also a delight - full skirted dresses featuring bold florals in one act and cherry blossoms in another."

"Lexi De Silva's costumes are appropriately oddball and add delicious flavour to each of the characters."
K. E. Weber, www.theatrepeople.com.au
". . . the costumes might have been my favourite character. All forties lines, jaunty hats and big hair, all the characters were enormously visually appealing."

". . . paper-clad bodies appear as flattened cutouts."
- Lesley Graham, www.danceaustralia.com.au
". . . tearing the off and discarding them on the floor. . . It appeared as if the humans had been converted to cold, steel machines."
- Amy Jackett, www.amyjackett.com
"The costumes, lighting and set pull together to form an intimate, moody work that is full of memorable, almost filmic images. Six dancers frozen in formless, laser cut paper shifts, backlit like translucent lamps."
