I've been wondering if there might be silk floss *under* the very shiny
heavier layer.
Today I was reading a book by the author that turned me onto this film
in the first place; the (fiction) book talks about the prior theater
production in the Hollywood Bowl, and mentions "fairies in cellophane."
In her Acknowledgments she cites help from the curator of the Reinhardt
Document Collection and the Director of the Hollywood Bowl Museum -- so
she's done some research. Possibly the cellophane is something they
told her, and possibly the costumer continued the use of it for the film.
Conjecture, but might be reliable.
The book, should anyone be curious, is _Rude Mechanicals_ by Kage Baker
