Ballet Costumes Ballet Pointe Shoes, Ballet Flat Shoes, White Ballet Tights, Ballet Tutus, Ballet Leotard, and General Ballet Clothing and Ballet Dancewear! A Collection of Ballet Costumes
The French monarch, Louis XIV, was the first to wear lavish ballet costumes. In 1653, as a teenager, he achieved his most memorable feat as a dancer who was garbed in a fancy golden Roman- cut corset and a kilt of golden rays, thus being dubbed as the Sun King.
In the 20th century, choreographic invention has led many to limit the ballet costumes and even the sets to a bare minimum. Simplicity was considered very essential to allow the audience to focus on the dancers' body movements and intricate patterns.
Below is a collection of modern ballet costumes that have been normally used in performances and recitals.
