I would like to introduce Lydia, a beautiful dancer.
Lydia is wearing a peasant costume for the Swan Lake Peasant pas de trois, 2nd variation. The bodice is made from silk dupion and silk/cotton blend for the faux chemise, with a romantic skirt made from four layers of custom dyed bridal tulle.
Her amazing mother Linda is a librarian who creates exquisite custom made classical ballet tutus disegned to enhance a dancer's performance (as you can see).
Give a look at her magnificent works @perthtutus #perthtutus #perthtutusbylindathorne.
It was a great honor to paint Lydia.
