Description
Stage skirt created for ballet dancer Ludmilla TCHERINA. 

The silver skirt is a short piece of gilded fabric, which clasps in the front and is secured by a thick black belt and buckle. The pattern on the skirt resembles the metallic scales of a fish and would have reflected the stage lights beautifully.
