HISTORICAL RECREATION: DEGAS

My studio focus during the first semester of sophomore year was the concept of recreating the garments worn by an individual within a historical painting. I have a background in ballet, and I have always been intrigued by the hypnotizing nature of paintings by Edgar Degas. The look I had made was fit within the studio theme of a completely white look, with historically accurate shape, fit, and style including undergarments. Based on the piece "Le Classe De Danse" by Edgar Degas, I recreated the every day uniform of a ballerina within the late nineteenth century.
