Several weeks ago, I blogged about the Spanish skirts and the practice tutus I had been making. Thanks to Stephanie Harris of Harris photographyhttps://www.facebook.com/pages/Harris-Photgraphy/366353280120806?ref=ts&fref=ts and Annelise, Catherine, Bridget and Gabrielle, soloists and senior dancers at the Ithaca Ballet for participating in my first photo shoot.
The costumes highlighted each individual dancers unique beauty and style (and I ran out of adjectives to describe them; I mean how many ways can you state the obvious that these girls look magnificent?!)

Hi Dani,
DeleteThank you so much! you are the first person to be kind enough to comment! I "know" you blog and work, which is lovely. I was just in Oz. I also "talk" to Suzanne from time to time. I am hoping that maybe this year I can go to another (more) costumer's intensives and we might meet there. I love how you work with stretch fabrics. I have only just started to tinker with that, now that I have "gone out on my own"; I think that would be helpful to get a good fit for rental costumes.
Thanks for your reply. I hardly get any comments on my blog either, I think it's hard to comment if you don't have a google account. I started a tutu Facebook page for precisely that reason, much more interactive. Email me at danilegge@me.com if you want to chat! This thing keeps freezing on me ( this is my third attempt at a reply)! Cheers dani
