Drawing, design for a costume for a faun by Vincente Minnelli. The costume consists of a golden leotard and tight, yellow leggings with white fur and silver trimmings, paired with high-heeled, pointed-toe, white boots with silver embellishments. A large cape, also in yellow with white fur trimmings, and with silver and yellow embellishments hangs from the back and is wrapped around the right arm. A sort of scarf, with white fur trimmings and silver embellishments, is wrapped around the left arm, its long points hanging towards the floor. An armband, also of white, silver and yellow colors, is tied around the left arm. A white fur and golden faun headpiece and golden gloves complete the outfit.
