Claret Red and Dark Cyan Silk Nutcracker Dress

A Striking Claret Red and Dark Cyan Nutcracker on Ice Dress

Bringing the magic of The Nutcracker to the ice requires a costume that blends elegance, movement, and tradition. For the Columbia Skating Club’s performance of The Nutcracker on Ice, this dress was designed based on Nutcracker Costume Style 701, capturing the charm of the Clara Party Scene while allowing for the fluidity and grace needed for a skating performance.

This particular dress was crafted in a rich claret red silk, a deep and festive shade that beautifully reflects the warmth and joy of the holiday season. The striking red tone adds a regal presence to the stage, making it an eye-catching choice under the glow of performance lighting. Paired with the cool contrast of dark cyan, the design balances both boldness and elegance, creating a visually stunning ensemble.

To suit the unique demands of a skating performance, we modified the traditional back closure, replacing the usual design with a row of buttons. This change not only enhanced the fit but also maintained a clean, classic look that complemented the structure of the dress. The buttons provided a seamless finish, ensuring both beauty and functionality for the performer.

The silhouette of Style 701 was chosen for its timeless appeal and ease of movement. The full skirt allowed for effortless twirls and spins, moving beautifully as the skater glided across the ice. Designed to be both elegant and practical, this costume ensured that every moment of the performance was enhanced by its fluid motion and refined details.

Many ballet and skating companies appreciate the versatility of this design for Clara’s role, as it offers a polished, traditional look with room for custom modifications. The combination of claret red and dark cyan gave this particular dress a unique personality, setting it apart from more conventional party scene costumes while still maintaining its classic Nutcracker charm.

With over 260 silk colors to choose from, every Nutcracker dress is tailored to match the artistic vision of the performance.
