The first three I would say are almost definately ripped off(notices they dont move the rings of fabric off the floor), they fourth I would say the straps release and it falls down either side, the bloke (6th) again ripped off, the seventh i'd say releases and folds down again and the same with the eighth and the ninth.
If you notice the first three get shorter and thinner and the next 5 get longer and puffier at the bottom anf if you compare her chest size(at the end) with that at the beginning its larger at the beginning.
I studied magic a lot so I can spot things that most wouldn't.

Not sure how most of them are done. But the blonde woman in the green dress that has a fringed hoop placed over her head and changes into a purple dress, I think it works like this.
Watch the guy, whose right hand is behind the woman. I think he undoes a clip or loose bow at the neck of the green dress, the top of the dress then falls forwards and backwards (like a tabbard), and is lined with purple material. If you freeze it often on the media player, you see the shoulder area change first and then the skirt area change colour.
So the top of the green dress falls forwards away from her shoulders, but is restrained at the waist, so what was the inside of the top of the green dress, now becomes the outside of her purple skirt. If you notice, you don't see the back of the dress for very long, she walks backwards to hide any possible clue.

"So how is the trick done? Slate.com reports that:
the trick dates back to the 19th century, and the first English-language manual to describe the art was published in 1911. Back then, magicians connected the various layers via hook-and-eye fasteners; today, the literature describes no fewer than 15 different methods of pulling off the trick, using such devices as Velcro, magnets, and "fish bone pull fasteners."
In other words, it relies on special clothing and a lot of practice. If you watch the video closely, the moment when she has the hoop around her and changes from a green into a purple dress is the one time you can almost see the costume change occurring. I have no idea how she pulls off the trick at the end in which she changes clothes as glitter falls around her. "
