Are you familiar with the Vienna New Year's Concert? I must confess I hadn't watched it before I got married but as Dan is a big fan, it became a tradition in our family. It's the highlight of the first day of each new year. We would like to be able to see it live some day but this is more than a matter of buying an expensive ticket to a world known concert, it's a matter of being extremely lucky. One has to register to the Vienna Philharmonic website at the beginning of the year and wait for the drawing of tickets. The registration for the 2012/2013 concert has just been opened today.
Some of the pieces are accompanied by ballet, for the ones who watch the concert on tv. It was the case of the Blue Danube by Strauss.

The ballet dancers had gorgeous outfits in a beautiful combination of blue and turquoise and different hues in between. They really looked like a river flowing in sweet motion.
As I like strong colors, I couldn't take my eyes off the dresses. How I would like to have one.
It also reminded me of Audrey Hepburn's dress when she accepted the Oscar in 1953.

Same pattern, different approach.
Yes! The Blue Danube dress is outstanding in many ways! I also love the lace dress Audrey wore!
ReplyDeleteSo will you be making this dress you like so much???
I know that there is a pattern for this type of dress, I've come across it but haven't saved it. If someone knows where I could find it, please let me know!
ReplyDeleteDraga Stefi,
ReplyDeleteEste fooooarte frumoasa rochia, iar combinatia aceea de albastru minunata! Mi-ar placea sa o vad facuta si de manutele tale!
Imi place mult si rochita lui Audrey! Mi-ar placea sa am si eu una cu acelasi model! :)
Oh I love the Vienna New Year's Concert too!
ReplyDeleteI always dream in going there, no idea there was a drawing of tickets!
I'll keep my eyes open and if I find the pattern I'll let you know!
In mean time, I wish you and your family a very happy 2012!!
