Ballet has played an important influence in fashion for decades and decades.
Throughout the 20th century and the end of 19th century beginning with The Ballet Russes and Diaghilev’s Seasons to nowadays.
Since the highly acclaimed film Black Swan with Natalie Portman receiving an Oscar for Best Actress, fashion saw a frenzy for ballet.
Not only it is cool to do ballet fitness as an exercise but also to wear the dance inspired clothing: tulle skirts, inspired tutus and even costumed outfits as seen in very detailed craftsmanship from recarnated couture house The House of Worth and its creative director Giovanni Bedin.
Whether it is a dress, a skirt or even a piece of fabulous jewellery. The art of the ballet has unparamounted owe and given inspiration from the grace and the mastery of the dancer, to the music, the setting and a story.
