Diaghilev.






amazing tribal prints inspired by Slavic culture. 

ballet shoes made of card and glue to keep their shape.

inspirations for costumes. "hello i'm a cat". 

amazing prop costume - a man would stand inside this huge figure...


geometric design and pastel colours.

clothes designed for the Ballet Russe by YSL. 

amazing print design and colours. 

The 'Diaghilev & The Ballet Russe' exhibition at the V&A is brilliant; its seemingly never ending rooms of amazing photographs, prints, costumes, props and set designs are HUGELY INSPIRING. Though i got in trouble sneakily taking these photos as no photography was allowed. 

Ok i was kinda asked to leave. 

Diaghilev was a G E N I U S.
