Can we PLEASE take a moment to appreciate the goddamn AMAZING amount of craftsmanship that goes into making pro ballet costumes?
I MEAN …
COME ON PEOPLE!
GENUINELY FUCKING SPECTACULAR!
THE DETAIL!
THE BEAUTY!!
THE GORGEOUSNESS OF IT ALL!!!
Costume designers are some of the most awesomely skilled people on the planet and I feel like they very rarely get as much admiration as they deserve. Especially in ballet, because a lot of the time at least half the audience doesn’t get the chance to see how intricate and beautiful these pieces truly are. I want to thank the artists who put so much effort into making characters look amazing.
