Oh, Croisette, these are beautiful! I am a devoted balletlover (I don’t like the word “balletomane”) and have loved both La Danse and Les Ballets Russes. La Danse seems like a grail and is not often available on ebay but always out of my price range. And you have three! Congratulations. LBR is usually available but I haven’t taken the plunge yet. I love your cw. And I have been in love with La Danse du Cosmos for years, esp. the royal blue cw with lime trim (O.M.G.), but have felt that it’s somewhat too formal for my needs. Your pink is spectacular!

There is hope to find one, it's a must for you Karenska!

Thank you, dear Cookie!

Speaking of Les Ballets Russes, as some here may know, George Balanchine was a dancer and choreographer with Diaghilev’s company in the 1920s and created two of his most iconic works during that time - Apollo and Prodigal Son.

Does anyone know the significance of the cross in this scarf? This cw is my particular favorite.

Oh my, what a beautiful CW!

All so gorgeous, Croisette! I love all your dance scarves!


I have three cws of Acte III, Karenska. Almost bought a 4th (@papertiger's red cw) but after trying it on 4 times on 4 separate visits, I had to declare defeat and admit that it just wasn't me :sad:

I've watched the Balanchine 1966 film, scratchy and bad sound, probably 30 years ago. Have to admit that I'm more of a Vic-Wells fan. My fascination with Mythiques Phoenix has some of its roots in Margot Fonteyn's Firebird. And to bring the subject back to H scarves, Fonteyn was coached in that role by Tamara Karsavina who first performed the Fokine ballet when she was with Les Ballets Russes!


Shhh... Cookie, I have to be inventive - I have 2 left feet and not that many dance scarves :angel: Just call me Scarf Nerd :smartass:

I have a new, small 45 Square that screams out Christmas from every angle. The scarf’s called: Sea, surf and fun. Have a nice day!:heart:
BTW, I’m sorry to everyone who had quoted me the last few days. My apologies for not thanking everyone, I was supper busy. Now I have time but I can’t find who had quoted me. Please forgive me. :love:

I'm looking forward to Scarf on Site :loveeyes:


It's a beautiful design but the scarf gods have been too good to me this year, so I resisted... :crybaby:


Oh, I was so hoping that someone would post this. Grailed!


Farandole is a delightful design. If anyone comes by Changi Airport, do drop in at our butterfly garden!


You look so enchanting that I'm getting green-eyed (slouching off to sulk :lol: )


I've got one in a dark blue. I'll see if I have any archive shots.


Thank you, moma! :hugs:


:wtf: So glad you realized where it had gone.


I am so wanting a Ballets Russes, but I need to find one without lots of brown in it. Brown and Me = Not Friends :sad:

Xincinsin, regarding the browns in Les Ballets Russe, I completely agree. For some reason, most of the cws of this scarf have a great deal of brown or a heavy orangy gold in them. My fav, of which I posted an internet photo yesterday, is the grey/blue/light gold cw.
