First Look: A Sale for Chic NYC Ballet Costumes

Starting tomorrow, for the first time ever in New York City Ballet history, the company’s specially made costumes, tutus, photographs, ballet shoes, and more will go on sale, in a partnership with One Kings Lane. Items include a book signed by the entire NYCB company, tutus (with the dancer’s names sewn inside), and rare, delicate costumes that principal dancers have worn while leaping across the stage in a grand jeté, gracefully walking around stage en pointe, or spinning fluidly in pirouettes. Also among the ballet bounty include worn-out shoes signed by principal dancers Maria Kowroski, Ana Sophia Scheller, and Wendy Whelan. Click through the slideshow to catch a first glimpse of the decadent gear.
