Every costume in The Fairy Doll was beautiful in line and color. The lovely Tyrolese Doll (Mile Stuart) with her bunchy red silk skirt and tight black velvet bodice over its chemisette of white, a white apron with green border and high black velvet hat with tall plumes of green cock feathers; the poet (M. Pianowski) with his bright purple long tailed coat, lined with blue and white check, buff trousers with red stripe at their side and turned up with pink, and deep white collar and large blue and white spotted tie. These were a wonderful pair when dancing together. The Dresden Dolls with their short, hooped, flounced and festooned skirts of white edged with blue, over long pantalettes with blue edged frills, the Spanish Doll in her dress which was so Spanish, and yet unlike any other Spanish costume one had ever seen, were all exquisite. How amusing too were the costumes of the English family, and those of the Russian country people, which suggested the late sixties but had just the right amount of exaggeration to make them effective on the stage. That is the secret of effective designing for the stage and for fancy dress: to keep strictly to the characteristic lines of a period but to exaggerate them sufficiently to make them more emphatic, though it is true that at one or two periods in history costume has been so extravagant that exaggeration would be unnecessary — instance the powdered head-dress of the women in the seventies and eighties of the eighteenth century.
To mention the eighteenth century at once recalls the ballet Amarilla with the exquisite costumes and scenery by Georges Barbier. One wonders why anybody who has decided to wear an eighteenth century costume at a ball is content to hire a tousled white wig of no form from a hairdresser who has never taken the trouble to study the head-dresses of the eighteenth century. It was a joy to see the neat little close white wigs that the Countesses and Marquises wore in Amarilla, and the little white wig worn by Miss Rogers in the Tschaikowski Scene Dans ante. The effect of the small neat head with the close little rolled curls is delightful with a large hooped skirt. Let us hope that hairdressers will take a lesson from it.
It is to be regretted that the ballet Flora’s Awakening with costumes and scenery by Albert Rutherston and Old Russian Folk Lore with costumes and scenery by Bilibine were not performed here — but it is to be hoped the ballets we have had the good fortune to see will have an effect on the costumes at the next fancy dress ball—that there will be fewer jazz costumes — that women who wish to wear an eighteenth century dress or crinoline will note the line of the hair and the line of the dress; for line is as important as color.
