Smiffys Burger Costume

Product Information

A figure from Handles by Haegue Yang, which offers a contemporary perspective on Schlemmer’s preoccupation with humans as machines

During the May 2023 episode of My Singing Monsters Live, it was hinted that Perplexplore-themed Costumes could arrive in Perplexplore 2024, suggesting that all these events may receive Seasonal Costumes in the near future. The female costumes do all bear some resemblance to a traditional ballet tutu, however. Perhaps that’s not so much a surprise when one considers that Schlemmer saw himself not so much as a radical but someone updating historic tradition for the new age with new materials and ideas. From 2012 to 2020, Monsters only dressed up for the Halloween/Spooktacle and Yay/Christmas seasons. Costumes were applied to all monsters for free and disappeared after the seasonal event was over. The following costumes have yet to become part of the new costume mechanic. It is unknown if these will be seen in future seasons.In keeping with my tradition of sharing our group Halloween costumes the year AFTER we wear them, I hereby present to you, my favorite group Halloween costume ever: In-N-Out Burger!

So first! If you’re going for it, you’ve got to decide who’s going to be what. The bulkiest costume is the french fries, so we opted to have Maggie be fries. We figured it would be easier to have kid-sized fries than adult-sized fries. You could also get super creative and add a drink cup to your list if you have more people in your group. On October 30th, 2014, Spunge also put on a costume, dressing up as a vampire. This was the result of a contest in which game players sent in costume ideas, with the winner being used in the game. The drawing became Spunge's Vampiric Veneer costume, which is now used in game. All Seeing Belly, Growth Spur-ts, Infamous Mug Pot, Pad Hair Day, Bubble Whammy, Parasol-ing, Miner Key, In It To Fin It, Fantasy Wings, Tentacool, Bunny Ears, Drop the Myc, Petal Propeller, and Beach Bum are the only animated costumes. Since 2017’s Spooktacle until 2019’s Festival of Yay, all monsters that dressed up would dress up immediately on the day the corresponding celebration started. During Spooktacle 2015, some players experienced a glitch in which certain monster's costumes would be jumbled around, along with the Plant island.There is no costuming currently associated with Anniversary Month, Crescendo Moon, Cloverspell, Echoes of Eco, Perplexplore, Life-Formula, SkyPainting, or MindBoggle. Spunge did not change its appearance for the Yay season after 2013, until its costume was made purchasable in 2021. Mammott, Epic Mammott, Shrubb, Rare Shrubb, Furcorn, Rare Furcorn, Epic Furcorn, Epic Maw, Bowgart, Rare Bowgart, Epic Bowgart, Spunge, Pummel, Rare Pummel, the Thumpies, the Rare Thumpies, and the Dipsters are the only monsters which have changed their appearances for both Spooktacle and Yay. Sinthia Liz, now at the Wiener Staatsballett notes how it might not be about humans or fairy tales, “but still it has that abstract sensibility in its choreography the audience can emphasize with.” She adds, “It’s very exposing. You are onstage at most with two other dancers and no setting just lights. There is a fine place between the costume wearing you and you wearing the costume.”

Before Update 3.7.0, some Colossingum costumes in the Steam version had some differences from the mobile version. Schlemmer was mooting the idea of a gesamtkunstwerk, a bringing together of visual art, dance and costume design, as early as 1912 after meeting husband-and-wife dancers Albert Burger and Elsa Hötzel. In many ways, he was one of the first true interdisciplinary artists, agrees Susanne Kaufmann-Valet, curator of the Moved by Schlemmer exhibition at the Staatsgalerie, staged to mark the ballet’s centenary. The choreography itself was developed by Burger, Hötzel and Schlemmer in collaboration. Floor geometry and geometric shapes determined the paths of the dancers. The music was a collage by eight composers across three centuries. The programme for the opening night noted how the ballet flirted with comedy without being grotesque and brushed against conventions without becoming base. It also suggested that it might demonstrate the beginnings from which a particularly German ballet could be developed. The costumes certainly determined the movements of the dancers, who had to subordinate themselves to their rigid shapes, although, from his notes, it seems that restricting movement per se was not Schlemmer’s prime aim. Until October 2015, Ethereal Island was unaffected by Seasonal Events, as it initially had no event of its own, and none of the costumed Natural Monsters could reside there.Oh, hello, East Coasters and foreign friends! In case you’re not familiar, In-N-Out is a beloved burger chain on the West Coast of the U.S. I don’t know what it is, but there’s something magical about those delicious burgers. And they make the fries fresh (literally cut the potatoes right in front of you) so they’re beyond delicious. Add the red details. Cut out three of the classic In-N-Out palm trees, and four red strips. Use hot glue to attach them to the bottom of the fry bag. To mark the 100th anniversary of the premiere of the Triadic Ballet, the Staatsgalerie are staging a Moved by Schlemmer exhibition that considers Schlemmer and his ballet’s relevance to contemporary art and in which the figurines can be seen in motion on a revolving stage. It really is quite fascinating to be able to get so close to them.

During a Seasonal Event, a special set of costumes will be available, and these costumes will be part of their own seasonal series. Pummel, the Thumpies, Tawkerr, Parlsona, and the Dipsters are the only monsters who dress for three or more Seasonal Events. Today, while still remembered as a Bauhaus designer, painter and teacher, Oskar Schlemmer’s contribution to dance gets little more than a passing reference. With one exception. His designs for his Triadic Ballet, which premiered at the Wurtemburgische Landestheater in Stuttgart on September 30, 1922 remain among the most striking and unusual ever conceived. The ballet itself never received acclaim in Schlemmer’s lifetime, however, only doing so with Gerhard Bohner’s 1977 re-imagining, commissioned by the Academy of Arts in Berlin.

Psst — to get more holiday ideas and inspiration sent straight to ya, join our VIP group below! What’s In-N-Out Burger? Last year we were having lunch at our very favorite burger joint and tossing ideas around about what to be, when I casually tossed out the idea of us being In-N-Out. We all sort of laughed about it and then realized super fast that it would be insanely adorable. And it was!
