What is it about?
The article is devoted to the actual problem of design-projecting of the costumes for children`s choreographic team based on bionics, using a bionic creative source. The method of analysis is used to identify the scope of the use of vegetables as a creative source during the creation of fashion collections. It has been found that designers use vegetables as the materials for making clothes; as the materials for sketching the models of the clothes; as the source of inspiration for the form, decoration, and color decision. A figurative and stylistic analysis of the bionic creative source and the transformation of the plant images into the fashion designs of the stage costumes for children`s choreographic team have been carried out.

Why is it important?
As a result of the analysis and the transformation of the creative source ‘Vegetables’, the models of the stage costumes for children`s choreographic team have been designed. The following principles have been used in the design of the costume, namely: imitation of bioform in separate elements of the costume; analogousness of silhouette solutions and general form of the costume to the natural bioforms; bionic design-projection with the identification of functionality and figurative and associative expressiveness of the costume. In the process of designing the collection of the children`s stage costumes, the scenario of the performance, as well as the requirements to the children`s clothes and the creative source, have been considered.
Perspectives
The review of scientific publications shows that the use of bionic direction and the principles of bioforms transformations during the creation of sewing products promotes the discovery of new color solutions, forms, methods of processing, functions of the clothes, etc. It is determined that the designers widely use bionic objects as a source of inspiration to create the models of the clothes for both podiums and everyday use. Edible plants, in particular vegetables, are used by the designers as the materials for making clothes; as the materials for sketching the models of the clothes; as the source of inspiration for shape, decoration, and color decision. As a result of the analysis and transformation of the creative source ‘vegetables’, the models of the stage costumes for children`s choreographic team are designed. In the process of designing a collection of the children`s stage costumes, the scenario of the performance, as well as the requirements to the children`s clothes and the creative source, have been considered. In particular, the movements of actors during the dance ‘Funny Vegetables’ have been analyzed.
