I saw something like this on the British version of the show. It's amazing how they do it. With other kinds of magic tricks, you can suggest pretty plausible ways as to how the things are done, but in this I've really got no idea.

There are a lot of different things they can use to do this - bascially things like velcro and quick release fastenings. Most of the clothing will be really thin so it can be 'bundled' easily without disrupting the look of the clothing (hence why she can go from long to short dresses etc). Some of the clothes can also be 'flipped' so they'll look different but are just double sided.

The glitter bit right at the end is pretty damn awesome and I'll bet it took a lot of practice to get that one right! The glitter also sort of shows how they do it - watch the change of position in her hands from before the glitter falls to after.

I really wish I could remember important stuff rather than useless trivia

you can see at 0:41 with the hoop, you can see the dress drop down from within the hoop

I was also thinking the costumes had velcro but daym they are quick, I guess practice makes perfect especially this time. Amazing stuff I enjoyed the show a great deal. :thumbup:

I actually don't care how they do it . . . . was just amazing to watch! :clap:
