dirac Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Royal Ballet dancers appear in a video wearing the designs of Susie Cave. Quote While the feminine silhouettes, visually arresting palette and delicate details of The Vampire’s Wife’s signature dresses might seem like obvious parallels with the uniform of ballerinas, the symmetry between the two is more complex than that. “Ballet exists beautifully and defiantly within tradition, and I respond very much to this in my own design work,” Cave asserts of not bowing to trends or seasons. “My designs have a subversive femininity that I see in classical ballet. Great classical ballet comes to you new and refreshed as a presentation of pure emotion, resisting newness for its own sake.” Link to comment
