FAQ About The Impact of Bauhaus on Modern Dance

The Bauhaus movement significantly influenced dance costumes by promoting designs that emphasize form and function. Costumes were often made of simple, geometric shapes and designed to enhance the movement and visual impact of the dancers. This approach aligns with Bauhaus principles, as costumes became extensions of the choreography rather than mere embellishments, blending the boundaries between dancer, art, and space. Such innovations continue to inspire contemporary costume design in modern dance.
