“Iconic” look for Clara in The Nutcracker Suite Ballet

Gosh – it was so nice to hear this today:

” When our 11 year-old daughter, Lily, achieved the iconic role of Clara in the Lake Erie Ballet’s production 55th Annual Nutcracker, in Erie, Pa, we knew we wanted to add something special; and that meant finding the perfect “party scene” dress. Pegeen was the only place that had exactly what we were looking for. When the dress arrived, we could not believe how beautiful it was. Beyond that, once on stage and under the lights, the dress was just magnificent! I dare say this dress made Clara even more iconic, and we couldn’t be more proud it was showcased by our daughter. The company was excellent in every way: communication, talent, delivery and follow-up. They really took a special interest in a successful, well-dressed performance! Thank you Pegeen, for making our daughter’s dream come true and giving us a memory to last forever!   Elizabeth Kons”

Time to think “Nutcracker Dresses for Clara” for all our dancers!

I know it’s still the summer but we have had a few calls about our Nutcracker Collection.  My three time ballet school sent these over a little bit ago and I just loved them! In about 45 days or so we start to get very busy with our Ballet schools and soon followed by the mom’s who find out that their little ballerina got chosen for the part of Clara in the Nutcracker Ballet.

I loved it though last year when a young “Clara” herself called me and we worked on her dress.  She was adorable sounding and I was so proud that she made the initiative call, designed her dress with me and soon after the ballet was concluded contacted me on Facebook so excited about the performance.  About a week later – we received
