Header image description: An imposing central figure is dressed in an extravagant back and white costume. She has a black top hat and a floor-length cloak with large, pointed shoulders. Around her are four other figures – two dressed in blue, one in red and one in yellow. They show a range of characteristics, from sneaky and standoffish to joyous. Behind them is a white runway stage.
