In occasione dei festeggiamenti per il decimo anniversario del Fashion Gala del New York City Ballet, i ballerini della compagnia hanno letteralmente inondato di luce il palco grazie ai loro costumi impreziositi da oltre 900.000 cristalli Swarovski. Disegnato da Palomo Spain, talento emergente che ha già di frequente collaborato con Swarovski, ogni monocromatico costume presenta cristalli in un caleidoscopio di colori che ne evidenziano l’individualità ed sottolineano la bellezza del movimento.
Dietro le quinte
Title:
Per il Gala, un team di sedici artigiani di grande talento ha realizzato dieci costumi fatti su misura che hanno richiesto un totale di 1.500 ore di lavoro. Utilizzando una nuova tecnica innovativa, i nostri esperti artigiani hanno impreziosito ogni singolo costume con decorazioni trasferibili in cristalli dalle tonalità vivaci, integrandovi intricati dettagli per assicurare il massimo impatto scenico. Ogni piroetta, salto e giravolta irradiava così una gioiosa stravaganza.

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.
