Appearing in Dance Magazine this time in a new capacity...designer.
President
Barack Obama
Luck found me once again when I had the good fortune to meet then-Presidential candidate Barack Obama, on his visit to local industries here in Bethlehem. A highlight for me was having the opportunity to speak with him and share ideas for supporting American companies and local workers.
COSTUME design
AUTUMN
Working with two wonderful women from my past: Darla Hoover, former New York City Ballet dancer and current Director of Ballet Academy East in NYC, and choreographer Lisa De Ribere from American Ballet Theater, on our second collaboration. These velvet costumes were the forerunner of our style 130 Sweetheart Leotard.
Robert Altman's
The Company
When you get a call from Sony Pictures Classics, you take it! Costume designer Sue Kaufman wanted 'authenticity' for Neve Campbell and the dancers in the movie. I was happy to oblidge.
Broadway Revival
EVITA
Sharing a last name with one of the show's stars (my brother Michael) gets you certain perks. Co-stars Ricky Martin, Elena Roger and Max Von Essen showed off their SteelCore gear after a pre-show warm up.
Dancing With The Stars
Another surprise phone call asking me to dress the cast of ABC's DWTS. Showing off my clothes to an Olympian, an astronaut, a SpiceGirl, and a centerfold. Who could say no?
Buzz Aldrin
Though this astronaut didn't wear any of our garments, his hands that were on the moon, touched them on his partner.
Ana Trebunskaya
