A Timothée Chalamet interview where he insinuated ballet is a struggling art form is churning up a lot of conversation. As a rebuttal, I can't help but notice the impact ballet still has on fashion. For instance, when Kaia Gerber arrived at March 11's pre-Oscars Vanity Fair party, she looked fresh from a Swan Lake pas de deux in a tutu-turned-little black-naked dress by Givenchy.
See, Chalamet? There's no fighting to "keep this thing alive." Ballet's silhouettes remain ingrained in red carpet fashion. Perhaps Gerber's five-day-old, Fall 2026 pull was her way of endorsing the art form's relevancy.
