Turquoise and Shock Pink Battenburg Lace Dress

Custom Nutcracker Party Scene Dress in Paradise and Shock Pink

As with many of our Nutcracker Costumes, this style includes delicate finishing touches like lace trim and a carefully shaped skirt, which help preserve the traditional silhouette expected in classical productions. The collar, which varies depending on availability, is selected to complement the dress without overpowering the strong color contrast.

Style 708 remains a favorite for its full skirt, fitted bodice, and elegant sleeves—all designed to support movement and stage presence. This flexibility allows Clara or other key Party Scene characters to look polished while still being able to dance and express their role. This colorful Nutcracker Costume was designed using Style 708 as the base, offering a fresh and lively take on a traditional Party Scene dress. The main color selected was Paradise, a bright turquoise silk that brings a bold yet elegant presence to the stage. Paired with a sash in Shock Pink, this costume radiates youthful energy—ideal for a character like Clara in The Nutcracker Ballet.

Paradise (light turquoise) and sash in Shock Pink with Battenburg Lace Clara Costume Nutcracker Dress

To add vintage detail, Battenburg lace was incorporated into the design. Known for its handcrafted appearance and intricate patterning, the lace gives a soft contrast to the vivid silk colors, keeping the costume grounded in period style while still feeling playful and unique.

The combination of Paradise and Shock Pink creates a vibrant and eye-catching palette. This look stands out especially well in the Party Scene, where many dancers are onstage at once and color can help define Clara’s character. The use of such bold color choices also photographs beautifully, adding to the visual storytelling of the performance.

Every Nutcracker Costume in our collection is made to order, allowing for color selection from over 260 silk shades and a wide variety of trims. This turquoise and pink combination proves how flexible the classic styles can be—making something personal and unforgettable for each performer.
