Ballet Russes
I made it to Diaghilev and the Golden Age of the Ballets Russes exhibition before it closed and it was well worth it. A wonderful exhibition exploring the story and influence of Serge Diaghilev and his dance company the Ballet Russes on 20th Century dance, music, art and culture. The exhibition focused on the major productions put on by the company between 1909-1927.
The highlights for me was the YSL 1976 collection inspired by the Ballet Russes and the beautiful Erdem scarf created for the exhibition (which you can buy from the V&A shop!)
