#twirling

[Image ID: two gifs of the artist and dancer Eros Recio dancing with the disability flag they designed in 2017. The flag has three stripes in the colors of gold, silver & bronze (inspired by medals awarded in competitions such as the paralympics) and highlights the achievements and value of disabled people in society. Eros spins and twirls with the large material flag, a large outdoor pool visible behind them.]

[Image ID: two gifs of someone waling and spinning in a street next to rows of stores and a flowerbed. They are holding a large rainbow flag with the words "pride for all" printed on it in white font.]

[Image ID: two gifs of a person dancing and twirling their hair. They have a long braided wig in gradients of black and green and it's so long it is almost at their feet. In gif one they are facing the camera, spinning their head and body to whip their hair around. In gif tow they are facing away from the camera and sway their hair from side to side.]

[Image ID: two gifs of someone standing outside in a grassy space with trees in the background. They are wearing fox ears and a fox tail that swings side to side as they dance. They jump and twirl around, swaying and dancing so the tail wags.]

I mean, these are all very acrobatic dance forms that need free movement. Is this just artistic convergent evolution? I always thought that sequined/rhinestoned stretchy bodysuits like this were called "Vegas Style" but I'm digging into it and nothing is supporting any mutual influence.
