''The Firebird'' is a ballet and orchestral concert work by the Russian composer Igor Stravinsky. It was written for the 1910 Paris season of Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes company; the original choreography was by Michel Fokine. A key aspect of the ballet's success and its enduring legacy is the visual component, particularly the costumes designed by Léon Samoilovitch Bakst.

Léon Bakst was a Russian painter and scene and costume designer of Belarusian origin. He was a member of the Sergei Diaghilev circle and the Ballets Russes, where he was known for his exotic, richly colored designs and a revolutionary approach to costume and stage design that contributed to the company's reputation. Bakst's work for ''The Firebird'' is among his most celebrated contributions to the art of ballet.

The ballet costume for ''The Firebird'' reflects Bakst's innovative approach to design and his flair for vibrant colors and dramatic effect. Bakst's costume for the titular character, the Firebird, is particularly notable. It typically features a fitted bodice and a short, layered skirt designed to give the impression of feathers. The color palette usually includes fiery shades of red, orange, and gold, evoking the mystical and magical qualities of the bird in Slavic folklore. The costume often includes elaborate headpieces and accessories that enhance the otherworldly appearance of the Firebird on stage.

Bakst's designs for ''The Firebird'' were not only visually striking but also functional, allowing the dancers freedom of movement while maintaining the aesthetic integrity of the characters they portrayed. His work on this ballet, as well as on other productions for the Ballets Russes, had a significant influence on the future of costume design in ballet and beyond, inspiring a generation of designers and changing the visual expectations of audiences.

The costumes for ''The Firebird'' have been recreated and reinterpreted numerous times since the ballet's premiere, with designers drawing inspiration from Bakst's original concepts. These costumes continue to be a critical element in performances of ''The Firebird,'' contributing to the overall impact of the ballet and its place as a masterpiece of early 20th-century art.
