My Nikiya’s death inspired pointe shoes are complete!
I couldn’t figure out what I wanted to do with my first pair of pointe shoes, so I decided to decorate them based on La Bayadere. The red shoe is inspired by the traditional red costume Nikiya wears and the black shoe is the flower basket with the snake. 🐍🗡️🩰

"Anna Pavlova’s feet were famously arched and tapered, yet her shoes have much less pronounced blocks for the toes than any modern ballerina would employ. She was the most world-renowned ballerina with the most world-renowned feet — but her shoes make us marvel at the strength those slender feet must have had. (This pair is thought to have been made in the 1920s, a decade when she traveled the globe.) They also have a remarkable amount of side stitching. We can only speculate what support this gave her."

Given that currently I’m not dancing professionally I thought now would be a good time to try a different brand of pointe shoe! (Freed of London) 🩰
