Russes Ballet
[ send me this paper ]
A 14 page paper which discusses how the Russes Ballet influenced the
society of the times. During the first decade of the 1900s fashion for women was
incredibly conservative, leaving almost nothing on the human body showing. With the
Russes Ballet came very risqué costumes that flowed with the body, and costumes that
often revealed a great deal of the body, if not complete nudity occasionally. The paper
discusses the society of the time, the fashions of the time, and the changes that were soon
seen in the fashion industry due to the revealing nature of the costumes seen in the Russes
Ballet. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
