I’m in the office! First day back, but still working away from home as I’m hiding out in The Lizard Cornwall this week! (Yes! That’s the foghorn you can hear in the background!)

2nd pair of shoes needed for next week's summer intensive @masters.of.ballet.academy our lovely student from @brightonballetschool who also attends The Royal Ballet School White Lodge
It is essential for these summer intensives that if you are going to be having a pointe class each day, that you have at least 2 pairs of pointe shoes. They need to be used in rotation, so that each pair has a minimum of 24 hours to air and dry out before being worn again.
* Do not leave toe pads or any accessories inside your shoes.
* Do not leave your pointe shoes inside your dance bag.
* Do hang your pointe shoes in a well ventilated room to dry.
* Do wash and dry your toe pads.

Trust your fitter !!

This dancer is at @brightonballetschool and @royalballetschool White Lodge and we fitted her into a pair of Suffolk Sheffields in a 7 XXX N. You may see that the dancer's right shoe has more of a gap around the heel than the left. This is for a 👏reason👏, not neglect or a missight. This is due to the R foot being minutely smaller in length. After this observation we tried the half size down in the same width, however, this caused discomfort and the dancer also bulged out. We then once again pivoted and tried the half size down and a half width bigger, but the dancer sunk down into the shoe, once again causing pain and discomfort. Therefore the best option for us was to go back to the original size 7 XXX N where she felt supported, secure and comfortable. It's not all about how the shoe is presenting but what's going on inside.

This lovely dancer is from @brightonballetschool and is starting her second term at White Lodge. We are wishing her so much luck and hope she has the best time.

She popped in during half term to get some new shoes. We fitted her into a Suffolk Sheffield. @suffolkdance

Happy Tutu Tuesday...
This week I have the cutest little duet to share with you. I made the flower fairy costume for the younger sister a while back and was thrilled to be asked to make a 'fawn' ballet dress for the elder sister for their special character duet. It was such fun to make, and I was given complete trust, which was lovely
I created a structured ballet dress bodice using bronze shot silk, brocade and stone satin, to create the fawn effect. I added half pearls to represent the markings on the fawn's back. I added a skirt in bronze chiffon and a cute little tail and ears with ivory fluff! The tail is removable incase the dress is used for another character at a later date.
Don't they just look adorable! Thank you to @brightonballetschool for asking me to make these costumes and for the lovely photos and kind words.

Designed and created by 'Handmade by Alison' please do not copy.
