Costume for Clara in the Nutcracker with Lace Ruffling
Clara's Party Scene Costume: Pink Nutcracker Dress
At Pegeen.com, we always aim to meet our customers’ unique requests, ensuring each costume reflects their vision for a memorable performance. For this particular Nutcracker Party Scene dress, a customer selected one of our classic Clara styles but chose a fabric twist that made the design truly special. While the style is typically made in one of over 260 luxurious silk colors, this customer asked that the dress be created in stretch lycra for added comfort and flexibility.
The choice of stretch lycra gave the dress a soft, fluid drape that allows for maximum movement during the lively Party Scene. This fabric choice was ideal for ensuring the young performer could dance with ease while maintaining the graceful silhouette expected of Clara’s costume. The fitted bodice and full skirt preserved the traditional look while offering the modern comfort of stretch fabric.

To add elegant detail, the customer requested lace trims on both the underside of the skirt and the bodice. These delicate lace accents created beautiful texture and dimension, adding a touch of vintage charm to the contemporary fabric choice. The lace along the bodice drew attention to the upper silhouette, while the hidden lace beneath the skirt offered a subtle surprise that enhanced the costume’s overall sophistication.
This custom Clara Party Scene dress reflects Pegeen.com’s commitment to blending timeless style with personal touches. The combination of stretch lycra and traditional lace shows how we can adapt our designs to suit any performance need while retaining the classic beauty of The Nutcracker.
Every Pegeen design is crafted with care to ensure it fits both the story and the performer. Whether made from our signature silk or a custom-requested fabric like this, our costumes are designed to help bring The Nutcracker to life on stage in both beauty and function.
