This year I got a 3-show subscription to the San Francisco Ballet. I mostly prefer abstract ballets that are music rather than story driven, but decided I had to see Frankenstein because I admire the ballet's young British choreographer Liam Scarlett. The show did not disappoint and I was especially taken by Wei Wang who performed the role of creature. On the night that I attended, all the lead roles were performed by Soloists not Principal dancers which I thought was great. The costumes, lighting and sets were impressive, imaginative and gorgeous. I did not care as much for the score but then again my appreciation for modern music is limited.
Here's what I wore. I went for black, because I had three separate outfits and let the SO pick one out. He enjoys being my in-house stylist, because he says it makes him feel needed.
The long sheer silk shirt dress is from 2012 or 2013. That's how long I hang on to my things. The red woven cashmere scarf is my newest item, from Amazon purchased as a completer. You can sort of see how it looks with the black leather jacket in the blurry second picture.
SO looks pretty good for someone who's come off of 6 months of chemo. He has MDS (Myelodysplastic Syndromes), a bone marrow disease.
ETA -- Form member Rachylou also attended this ballet, here's her outfit! Unfortunately we went on different days, so could not do a micro meet up.
