Pas de Deux


How can we get inspired by the beautiful things around us and incorporate them into our style? From Degas' sculptures and paintings to the outstanding success of the darkly luxurious "Black Swan" still lurking in the wings, ballet has swept the world of fashion, giving it a fresh, graceful spin (or should we say, pirouette?).


Layer upon layer of petal pink and flaming copper silk compose this showstopping rose hair adornment reminiscent of the sugar plum fairy's showstopping costume.



This dance has been an inspiration for multiple creations of ours. The light as air scarves have the same sort of floating charm as Degas' ballerina's frothy skirts.



This mask explodes into gleaming silver and riotously coloured beads, having a spray of ballet slipper-pink pearls and mother-of-pearl beads, a flourish of bold raspberry coloured ribbon and luxurious night black feathers to add to add a touch of drama.



With strings of sunrise pink semiprecious stones and dusty rose pearls and Swarovski crystals braided together, this necklace is sure to evoke the grace and effortless elegance of the stage.
