After our delve into the Elizabethan ages yesterday, today we move to life in the fast lane. After a fairly exciting Grand Prix season, the Formula 1 action has returned to American soil this weekend after several years’ absence. The race, held at the Circuit of the Americas, Austin, Texas is the penultimate event of the season, and the occasion inspires us to think of ideas for a ‘Need for Speed’ theme. Racing drivers are an obvious starting point, although it is noticeable that, unlike other areas of sport, this is not an area where the girls have made too much progress since the pioneering days of Davina Galitza in the 1970s – where are the real-life Penelope Pitstops? There are, however, many fields where ladies have shown themselves to be quick off the mark, and even if you ignore the sporting context, there are other potential areas to work with, from those involved in fast transit transport, through superheroes to gaming greats such as Sonic the Hedgehog. If you want to go for it, zip down to us here at Props & Frocks and we will have you fixed up in a Flash (or any other character that suits you).
