Arthur Elgort

I've officially fallen in love with Arthur Elgort.  He makes his models look like dancers and his dancers look like models.  Or maybe it would be more accurate to say that he proves that ballet is just as stunning and glamorous as modeling and modeling is an art form just as sophisticated and elegant as ballet.  Either way, I'm smitten.  Let's take a look.


 






Speaking of ballet in fashion, I'm kind of in love with these Stefano Pilati shoes.

Oh, and I should mention that it's my husband's birthday.  Happy Birthday, Love Love!

Elgort seems to have this magical way of knowing how to photograph dancers. I've been in love with his work since the first day I discovered it.

I do ballet at ARC right now. I can't afford to dance anywhere else. Where do you dance? Lovely pictures by the way!

Happy Birthday to your sweet love! And those shoes are gorgeous, although at almost 6', I cannot wear them unless I want to be referred to as the giant in the room.
