Yeah for sure, part 2 and 3 and 4, please!! This would make for a great recurring series. Maybe deep diving into one design aspect or era, sometimes? I only took ballet for a short year in early elementary, but the history and technical parts of it have always fascinated me. I don't even know how I found this channel but I love it!!!

before they hardened the shoes in the late 19th century, russian ballerinas of the 1860s would sometimes wear two pairs of shoes at once for extra support.

About the brief mention about the myth that feet were smaller in previous times, there is an interesting video from Nicole Rudolph where she talks about that. She recreates historical shoes herself and has collected antique shoes for a while and has shoes from the 1820s to the 1920s and has done a decent amount of research on construction and shapes as well as the very prevalent myth that women had smaller feet historically. They actually did not! However, the shaping and styling is often very good at making big feet look small and the many shoes in museums do not represent the sizes that were very available at the time. You might enjoy her video from a few months ago, where she shows her shoe collection, talking about the transition from different styles and structures and another a bit further back where she talks about her experience of wearing her own handmade historical shoes over the last decade and another from 10 months ago which is totally about the myth of small feet "back then." This, of course, doesn't mean some women didn't have very small feet. Some still do. But some also had very large feet...I know my great grandmother, born in 1902, wore a modern US size 10 in a wide width (I don't know what her size was in the early 1900s, because the sizing was crazy back then and even varied from maker to maker) and was only about 5 feet tall. Anyways, thought you might be interested.

This makes a lot of sense from a purely historical standpoint: a lot of historical textiles that are extant now are super fancy stuff made for upper class "important" people, and we have way fewer "everyday" working class garments, and that's because "everyday" things were literally worn Every Day and they were worn so much that they were either made into another piece of clothing or simply thrown out. Much like pointe shoes! The ones we still have have are the ones that were worn less. I'm not trying to make a correlation between upper class and small feet or anything, just that small feet were "on trend" and so that could be why we have many examples of tiny shoes.

On top of that its the smaller articles of clothing that survive were in reality more children's or teens clothing, because children and teens would outgrew their clothes and therefore wore those items of clothing less thus allowing those pieces to survive history. Actual adult sized clothes and shoes were worn daily till it was no longer functional. It can be considered a sort of survivorship bias since we can only examing the items of clothing that survived which just happened to be smaller.

i'm surprised she didn't touch on the stylistic differences of the grave/demi-charactere/grotesque styles which predicated the national styles of france and italy, which in turn allowed for the development of pointe work. so many of us focus on ballet technique being a single entity, but we tend to forget that it used to have three (four if you go back far enough) distinct forms with distinct technical challenges. pointe work would have never existed without the intense training regimen of the italian grotesque school of ballet (little wonder that marie's father was italian...)

SO AMAZING that she has a pair of the legendary and my favorite ballerina Maximova’s pointe shoes!!! So very close to having her as a teacher when I was in Russia, but alas her heath had already taken a turn. I was blessed to be taught by the equally legendary and beautiful Nina Sorokina though before she passed away as well. ❤️ Also, for years I did not have elastics on my heals due to all the wonderful Russian teachers I was blessed to have her in the states. It just wasn’t necessary. Also, toe pads once my feet were strong enough were a thing of the past (Still dance that way sometimes better control in feeling the floor).

Absolutely loved learning about the history of the shoes in her collection. When y'all were talking about pointe shoe companies making shoes for dancers of color I remember back when I was younger dancing en pointe (I think 2006) having to pancake my shoes I didn't let them dry completely before I started dancing in them and stained the marley. Thankfully companies now make shoes in my skin tone so I don't have to pancake anymore.

I spotted Karen Kain's autographed shoes right away. I met her when I was little, and my family visited the Royal Alexandra Theatre stage door, after a Christmas panto that starred Karen and her husband, Ross Petty. That panto was imported from England. Soon, Ross would produce pantos himself, and would become Canada's foremost panto producer.
