Hey, Yall
OK lets talk dance wear fashion!
Have you ever thought “I am having a bad leotard day…. well its just not going to be a good day!” Been there! As dancers, we spend more time in dancewear than normal clothes. So why not express ourselves in them? I definitively feel that I have a style to what I wear, so its no surprise that when I found this brand… I just about flipped!
I have had the great pleasure of collaborating with Dani, the owner of Rae Boutique. I was already following her career through Instagram and then she posted her clothing brand for the first time! I literally remember the day so clearly, so does my fiance! I shoved my phone in his face and said “OMG it’s like Audrey Hepburn made leotards!” (I am a very big fan of Mrs. Hepburn) So I purchased my First Rae Boutique leo and my classic style was complete!
Not only is she a stunning ballerina with Sarasota Ballet, but she has brought so much style into the dance world! I was so happy when I found out she joined the Dancewear corner family! Go shop now!
Fun Facts:
- Dani designs & sews each piece herself from start to finish using her sewing machines!
- Some of her fabrics she found while she was in New York!
- Seeing a beautiful piece of fabric is what inspires her designs!
I can’t wait to see more styles in the future!!!
“I fell in love with thrifting at cool vintage stores when I lived in Nashville. I was a starving artist just starting my ballet career and my tight budget lead me to my first sewing machine, and in turn, my first vintage inspired handmade pieces. Marrying my love of vintage clothing, sewing/design, and ballet gave birth to Rae Boutique. I wanted it to feel like the vintage stores I used to shop, as well as, be a place perfect for dancers to find unique, one of a kind dancewear and accessories. Items that have soul and are as cool as the dancers that wear them!”
