For this production of The Learned Ladies, the design team wanted to emphasize the sexy side of learning. The concept was to take The Learned Ladies and put it in an "Real Housewives" setting. To that end, the team wanted to begin the show by depicting the characters using the books, or 'Knowledge,' to make themselves more attractive. Because it was the beginning of the show, there was artistic freedom to take the show into an unrealistic environment. Using high contrast from the side allowed the form of the bodies to exemplify the sexy feeling that the design team wanted to achieve.
