About This Project

I only designed the principal couple. The rest we borrowed from Milwaukee Ballet. The first bodice was rejected because Suzanne thought the ballerina looked too real. We switched to traditional silk satin so she was more sylph like. My mistake. I always thought the girl in Scotch was the sister to all those boys in kilts. Never assume in the world of classical ballet.
