A Collection Embodying the Lightness and Delicate Femininity of a Ballerina



Until now, Repetto's apparel offerings were limited to dancewear such as leotards and warm-up sweats. Now, a ready-to-wear collection is finally here.

The collection is designed by French designer Émilie Luc-Duc, born in 1980. She previously worked on Dior Girl as a knitwear designer and became Creative Director for Rodier in 2011. Known for her creativity and innovation in refreshing the collections, style, and image of historic maisons, she has also begun a collaboration with Repetto this year.

This collection, born from her interpretation of the Repetto maison's DNA and inspired by the world of dance, features pieces with a twist, such as tops that sculpt beautiful, corset-like lines through soft knit fabrics and clever draping, and romantic items like skirts created with voluminous layers of fabric.

The color palette is primarily composed of Repetto's signature powdery pastels, accented with bright pops of color. Furthermore, tutus, reminiscent of those worn by ballet dancers, are presented in various arrangements, inviting all who see them into the world of dance.

The items are manufactured in Europe, primarily France and Italy. In Japan, they will be available from mid-February at the Ginza store, Tamagawa Takashimaya S.C. store, Nagoya Lachic store, Lucua Osaka store, and Tenjin VIORO store.

A collection that embodies the lightness and delicate femininity of a ballerina. We can hardly wait for the arrival of this exquisite and romantic collection, which every woman will surely long for!
