Burda September 09 - Folkloric Skirt
A few days ago I received my first Burda (formerly World of Fashion) magazine in the mail.
A fan since childhood of anything pioneerish (thank you, Pleasant Company), this skirt caught my eye and also reminds me of the folk dancing that was a part of the ballet classes I took as a child. The British Royal Academy of Dance - which has schools for children worldwide - mandated a full skirt and black canvas Cuban-heeled character shoes for that portion of their classes. Those were my first heels, at the age of ten!
