Coppélia Costume Lust
Jun. 12th, 2010 06:02 pmLast night we went to see PNB's brand new production of Coppélia, which is gorgeous. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
seanb and I have been getting a little snobby about story ballets, but this one was genuinely funny and wonderfully danced. It was also full of those classic ballet tutus which swirl so nicely.
Now, I am lusting after one particular costume, the Spinner from Act III.
Admittedly, I would change the sleeves and maybe make the underskirt black, but I still am lusting over the patterns on the overskirt, which could be seen from our seats on the balcony. Besides, what little girl doesn't want a tutu?
Any ideas on how to recreate this? Getting the underskirt is easy, it's the top part that would take more work.
