Nina Ricci has opened a pop-up store, "LE BALLET," on the third floor of the Isetan Shinjuku flagship store. It will be on display until November 12th.
The interior of the store, decorated with the brand's iconic pink walls, features the brand's 2013-14 Autumn/Winter collection, themed around ballet dancers and dressed-up audiences. The collection features form-fitting knitwear and voluminous skirts reminiscent of ballerinas, as well as gorgeous cocktail and evening dresses in red and pastel colors. The store also carries a new bag, "BALLET," inspired by the rehearsal bags used by ballerinas.
Designer Peter Copping was inspired by Nina Ricci advertisements from the 1970s, photographed by photographer David Hamilton, to create the collection.
