Two dresses were created by a ballet costume maker, Tutu Etolie, for Kittiwake Dance Theatre for upcoming performances.
A range of exquisite fabrics were turned into new costumes for the Sugarplum Fairy and Cavalier in their show, The Nutcracker.
The dresses were on display at Rocket Bakery earlier today and professional dancers Stephanie Campbell and Elljay Timm were on hand to express their excitement in getting to wear them.
