    This was my favourite costume in the opera. I love the idea behind all the women's clothing in this production. It was so interesting to see the contrast between Donna Anna and Donna Elvira's costumes. The written word vs the ink stain. Very stunning

    Jesus, it must cost millions of dollars to put on a single ballet, with all the skilled artisans involved.

      I think they’re under contract usually? So they get paid a set amount rather than paid for each individual production.

      Morgan Olfursson They have to design and create the dress. You think any unskilled mook can do that?

      It costs a small fortune for whatever production. Costumes are costumes and whether it's Nixon in China or a traditional sleeping beauty it'll the costs are huge.

    This is awesome! Can I just say, the dye is wonderful but the draping and pleats in the skirt of that gown is just as stunning! Doing something that simple is SO hard because it has to be perfect!

    I was so nervous when she touched the dress in the very end with her gloves still on. They had black dye on the fingers.

    I feel the need to ask if the dyes are mixed in chamber pots. Which is amazing.

      Lisa T For proper dyeing non-reactive containers are preferred, and better if they can boiled on the stove. The porcelain coating on the chamber will not chemically react with the dye. (Unlike us crafters who grab whatever plastic bucket or thrift shop pot and cross your fingers.)

    WOW! This dress is gorgeous. How do you make the dress sit up on the waist side?

    • @OofusTwillip
      @OofusTwillip 4 года назад

      The bodice has a pointed front, which goes lower than the waist. This makes it look as though the skirt is going up at the sides.

    歌劇場の衣裳部に染色の専門スタッフまでいるのか。
    日本のオペラやバレエでは考えられない。歌舞伎ならあるのかな。日本の衣裳は色が悪い。ヨーロッパの人の色彩感覚は優れている。

  • @herrbrucvald6376
    @herrbrucvald6376 6 лет назад

    The big huge problem w/ opera today is that the emphasis isn't on great singing.
    So many people in the profession don't even know what a great voice is or what great singing is.
    When I go to the MET I rarely hear great singing. Memorably bad productions, but no memorable singing.
