Madonna in Steven Klein Video - "Beast"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykcgpvDw-G8

I found this short fashion film very inspirational. It features the singer/actress/entrepeneur posing on a stage, next to a burning dress. I have previously said that I would like to burn a dress and see what is left, to potentially use in the photoshoot/ as the final outfit, but this video has inspired me to record the process of burning the dress... perhaps this could be incorporated into a fashion film, or I could get my photographer to take a series of photographs to show the progressive decaying of the dress. The best way of doing this, in my opinion would be to hang it from fishing wire, (which will simply melt instead of catch fire, therefore avoiding potential hazards), and hang it from the branches of a tree (unintentionally in the style of Tim Walker).
