Quick Change Artists on America’s Got Talent

Okay, this may have been around for a while, but I had not seen it, and I’m amazed. This is a performance by a couple named David and Dania on “America’s Got Talent”. Even in one change, you can kind of see the dress change while it’s on her, but I can not for the life of me figure out how it’s done.

Apparently this is a trick that goes back hundreds of years. Quick-change is a performance style where a performer or magician changes quickly within seconds from one costume into another costume in front of the audience. Origins of this can be found in a book dated 1600 describing the performance of Giovanni Gabrielli, performing different change of costumes and characters in the public square of Bologna. But this couple take it to a whole new level.
