- Summary
- Chiefly costume designs for ballets produced or planned by the Harkness Ballet company in the 1960s. The dancers' names are often listed on the designs. Includes a set design and six costume sketches for Michael Smuin's Suite ecossaise, known as Highland Fair (1965); seven costumes for Thomas Andrew's The elements (1965), the final costumes for which are credited to James de Bolt; a costume design for the female dancer in Stuart Hodes's Abyss (1967); and a costume design for ballerina Lone Isaksen in an unidentified ballet.
