Repetto

Isn't there a ballerina in all of us?

Repetto window display in Paris at Rue de la Paix.

Antique tutu in Repetto window, I love how they have stage lights
in the display foreground.

Ballet slippers are slotted by size and colour.

It seems women must stop and gaze. Enthralled by
the romantic world of ballet.

    Lace up your dancing shoes and dance amongst the stars.

  2. What a lovely post! I was a ballet dancer when I was a young girl (it seems so very long ago!) so this post brought back incredible memories for me! Thank you! Your images are fantastic and I am so happy to have discovered your site! I can't wait to pur over your posts!

  3. Yes, I took ballet as well, so the top photo resonated with me immediately. Alas, it was not to be, I wasn't the most graceful of ballerinas, but luckily I didn't know that at the time!

    I love Repetto too. I always have a stop in their store when I'm near the Opéra.
    Beautiful!
