Visual Research

I love Pinterest, it is massively helpful to me for research starting points and inspirations. I think this is  because I have found I relate well to words and on Pinterest the images are categorised by associated words. My starting inspirational words I typed into Pinterest for 'Showtime' are:

Sparkle
Glamour
Glitter
Silhouette
Ornate
Burlesque

The images I loved:
