Emilie Flöge (1874-1952), reformist fashion designer and one of the Flöge Sisters ran a hugely successful fashion salon; she was also life companion to Gustav Klimt and an integral part of Vienna’s cultural scene. Those are the facts, but who was Emilie Flöge really? Beloved Muse re-imagines the part of Emilie’s life that she deliberately burnt, and rescues a radical and extraordinary woman from the ashes. Written by Penny Black, this piece imagines the life and loves of an extraordinary woman.
