In the  final scene it had one of the most inventive costumes I've seen
in a long  time. 


*******************
 
 
In the musical "Dream Girls"...a story of a 60s girl group like the  
Supremes...there's a number called "I'm Changing". The solo singer alone on  
stage 
starts out in a 60's poncho dress...y'know a dress with a matching  poncho.... 
A 
style kinda popular in the 60s. As she sings the spot light focuses  closer 
and closer on her face until that's all you can see. Then, as the song  
progresses, the spot light spreads back out and she, having not moved, is  in a 
long 
beaded gown! Whoa...she really IS changing!
 
Obviously the gown is on the back of and under the poncho part of the 1st  
outfit, but what a great special effect.
 
Like in "Sunday in the Park with George" where Dot's bustle gown opens up  
and she steps out of it in her under things and dances while the gown just  
stands there by itself. Then it opens up again and she steps back into  it.
