Work At New York City Ballet, A Dancer Turns Costume Designer This collaboration with Justin has been truly thrilling. When he sent me the epic Aaron Copland score along with images of esteemed Jeffrey Gibson’s wildly colorful canvas drops — over 100 colors! — and said “Here’s your palette,” I was ecstatic.

The cut of my designs for this ballet are quite classic and simple. It’s all about the colors. No two dancers are alike, yet they ebb and flow into distinguishable little color families throughout the piece.

He often gives loose parameters and lets you run with it, but this was a true color free-for-all Rubik’s cube of a situation and I couldn’t have loved it more.
