New York City Ballet

La beauté du mouvement

Sous le feu des projecteurs

À l'occasion du 10ème anniversaire du gala du New York City Ballet, les danseurs de la compagnie étaient recouverts de plus de 900 000 cristaux Swarovski. Pensés par Palomo Spain, talent à suivre et collaborateur régulier de Swarovski, les ensembles monochromes arboraient des pierres dans un kaléidoscope inédit de couleurs, un véritable hommage au mouvement et à l'individualité.

En coulisse

Composée de 16 talents, l’équipe d’artisans chargée de réaliser les costumes du gala ont créé pas moins de dix costumes sur mesure, des pièces uniques qui ont nécessité près de 1 500 heures de travail. Ils ont ainsi habillé chaque pièces de cristaux étincelants, dans des nuances intenses, avec un niveau inédit de précision et de détail, pour un effet sur scène éblouissant Pirouettes, sauts et pas chassés rayonnaient de joie et d’extravagance.

On Stage

An Exceptional Display

Starring in the world premiere of Gianna Reisen’s ballet ‘Play Time’, with music composed by Solange Knowles, the dancers honored our mastery of light, savoir-faire, and enduring support of the arts with a spectacular and dynamic performance.

Individual Brilliance

Each costume features vivid tonal shades, ranging from royal purple and mustard yellow to black and white. These eye-catching new designs were joined on stage by crystallized pieces from the archive – a wondrous link between past and present.

From Head to Pointed Toe

Arranged in vertical lines, the crystallized transfers draw the eye to each dancer’s exquisite lines as they dance across the floor. Catching the light with every movement, the stones add a dazzling dimension to the company’s performance.
