Dresses for Dancers

The Colors

Certain colors, like the Arabian Blue (perfect with lapis lazuli and silver jewelry), the Fire (a mix of oranges, purple and green — very popular), and the Purple (a deep jewel tone sometimes with ruby highlights) are usually available, but others seem to come in waves and I’m sure there are some colors I’ve missed. There have been Burgundy (the closest I’ve ever seen to red but kind of on the pink side), Black Burgundy (darker and very Gothic), Bottle Green ( a foresty emerald), Ocean (a blue green mix), Cranberry (Purple Blue Magenta mix), Lavender ( a light purple), Orchid (on the pink side), Lilac (on the blue side) Vintage (yellow mixed with either burgundy or purple; very unique) Flame (a mix of Purple and Peach), Emerald (Green and Turquoise), Brittania (Bright Blue and Purple), Purple Blue, Magenta, Saffron, Hot Pink, Pale Yellow, Dark Copper Brown, and Black.

Care

When I bought my first dress, which was a yellow and purple Jezebel dress (a color the designer calls Vintage), I worried that the lace on the bodice might snag with wear. It has proven to wear just fine and if there is a lift in the embroidery thread in the lace you can just snip it off with no problem. It will not run. All in all, I find they wear very well. At first I always dry cleaned them, but then, out of desperation, I washed one in the machine. It shrank a little in length but seemed to lengthen out again as I wore it. It fit fine everywhere else. So this is my approach as a person who is addicted to these dresses and consequently has a lot of them. I will occasionally machine wash and line dry some of them. I will say I did have a problem with the color lightening a lot with one of them so if you don’t want to take a chance I’d advice you to dry clean them. If it’s only body odor I’m concerned with, I’ll dry clean them in my own dryer with a simple system you can get in the store called Dryel. If there are stains, I may take it to the cleaners, and if it’s really one of my older ones, I’d work on it at home. I currently have a new Fluted dress in solid Saffron. I plan to take it to the cleaners because a stain on it would not easily be camouflaged as can be with tie dyed dresses. Better safe than sorry.

Here are my favorites. Most of them feature the full circle skirts. There are other styles that I don’t like as well. New ones make their appearance as time moves forward. I always get compliments on all of these dresses whereever I go, so I decided to work on making them available to my women friends.
