In the world of New York City Ballet, movement is a dialogue between precision, discipline, and expression. We explored the NYCB Archives and Costume Shop, studying the most memorable performances and seeing first-hand the dedication of its atelier in bringing the stage to life with fashion. Here we found a hidden world in the middle of the city, and the idea for our capsule. Images feature India Bradley, Soloist, New York City Ballet.

Clementine Ballet is a celebration of the artistry of ballet that goes beyond choreography and extends to the aesthetic.

Designed with New York City Ballet to bridge the creativity of the theater with the rhythm of the city, translated onto silk. The central red ombre is our contemporary take on the iconic tutu, as featured in many of New York City Ballet’s performances. The supporting motif pattern honors the shared synesthesia of fashion and dance. 

These limited edition pieces in 100% organic silk are our tribute to the history and enduring impact of New York City Ballet.
