A Collection of Ballet Costumes
The French monarch, Louis XIV, was the first to wear lavish ballet costumes. In 1653, as a teenager, he achieved his most memorable feat as a dancer who was garbed in a fancy golden Roman- cut corset and a kilt of golden rays, thus being dubbed as the Sun King.
In the 20th century, choreographic invention has led many to limit the ballet costumes and even the sets to a bare minimum. Simplicity was considered very essential to allow the audience to focus on the dancers' body movements and intricate patterns.
Below is a collection of modern ballet costumes that have been normally used in performances and recitals.

Instead of carving polar bears only in walking positions or other poses often seen in the natural wild, the carvers began to make the bears in upright positions standing on one hind leg.
