Ballet
Grace meets street style. Ballet-inspired trainers bring soft tones, delicate details and feminine energy to the trainer world.
The Ballet-Core Aesthetic
Blush tones, satin finishes, ribbon-style laces and pointed-toe silhouettes — ballet-core trainers bring the elegance of the dance studio to everyday dressing.
Colour Palette
Dusty rose, cream, ivory, pale lilac and soft grey are the defining colours of the ballet-core trend. Monochromatic tonal dressing amplifies the effect.
Styling Ballet Trainers
Pair with a floaty midi skirt, wide-leg linen trousers or a slip dress. The contrast between soft femininity and the trainer silhouette is the whole point.
