| Rendering for Julia Adam's fingers of your thoughts for Ballet Memphis, 2010. |
Design above, and photo below, for Julia Adam's fingers of your thoughts for Ballet Memphis. The ballet was about hands, so we traced each dancer's hands and incorporated them into the style lines of the leotards. The tutus are based on a 16th century farthingale pattern, same as what Queen Elizabeth would have used under her gowns. The concept was literal and it worked well for the intimate studio where the ballet premiered. I added capri tights to the original design because there is floor sliding in the choreography.
