This season, ballet has taken the fashion world by storm. Selkie is not immune.
Perfection, beauty, elegance, misogyny, the Patriarchy, sex work, secrets, and a woman's perseverance come to life in the form of a ballerina captured—in pastels, wax, and clay—by the revolutionary Impressionist artist Degas. This ironic portrayal of beauty and pain, where art imitates life, life imitates art, takes center stage in our next capsule: "Le Petite Danseuse."
