- This gossamer ballet tutu was worn by ballerina Marianna Tcherkassky in productions at New York’s American Ballet Theatre. The costume was designed and made by May Ishimoto, the wardrobe mistress for ABT. Tcherkassky, a Washington, D.

The costume consists of a blue silk tutu and white crinoline. The pale blue silk bodice has peasant-style criss-cross lacing across the front with blue velvet ribbon. Lace and embroidery trim the skirt’s edge and the costume has short puffed sleeves with velvet trim.
