this garment was created with the similarities of the fluidity of clouds and the volume of vintage ballet costumes in mind. being both wearable in today's fashion climate and representative of true ballet stage costume, this look ties the collection together. it is made of tulle and satin, drawing inspiration from vintage ballet silhouettes.

this look was created with remembrance of the designer's own experience in the world of ballet. the pink satin is symbolic of the pink ballet shoes worn by the dancers. though this piece has many aspects that represent the classic ballet aesthetic, the designer created it with the goal of individuals to be able to wear it outside of the studio.

using a very light pink tulle, the designer took inspiration from ballet skirts. the ballet shoes worn by ballerinas also led to the use of satin ribbons as shoulder straps.
