About
Twilight Courant
Beautiful smoky blue skirts made of recycled bottles. Fabulous embroidery by Polly Kinney at Barbara Matera's like hoarfrost.

"The music, from Handel's keyboard suites, is based mainly on baroque dance forms, a period theme echoed in the bodices and doublets by Holly Hynes and in some of the figures of the choreography."
Lynn Garafola
The Dance Insider
"The simple, graceful costumes by Holly Hynes contribute to this effect( the women's sheer dresses feature airy puffed sleeves and sparkles at teh breast) as do the courtly arm positions and restrained, though not restrcted, scope of movement in the lower body."
