Repetto - Lac des Cygnes

Repetto

Swan Lake

Once upon a time a Princess named Odette 

was under the spell of the Evil Wizard Rothbart.

 He turned her into a swan after the moon set

and the spell could only be broken by a vow of everlasting love.

The Paris Opera Ballet performed Rudolph Nureyev's production of 

Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake earlier this year. The Repetto window 

pays homage to the genius of the composer and the choreographer.

The large window of the Repetto flagship store on Rue de la Paix

will always amaze you with its beauty and creativity.  

My favorites are those which feature a ballet such as this one.

Repetto - Coppélia

Repetto's Window

The ballet Coppélia is featured in the windows of Repetto on rue de la Paix.

The ballet was originally choreographed by Arthur Saint-Léon 

to the music of Léo Delibes and its premier performance 

was in 1870 at Théâtre Impérial de l'Opéra in Paris.

I am always drawn to this window on each visit to Paris 

and can hardly wait to see what the imaginative designers have created.
