She loves nothing more than to pirouette and fouetté her way across the stage, to beautiful classical music by Tchaikovsky and Prokofiev.

First though, it’s a busy day of classes, stretching and rehearsals. She is set to dance her favourite role of Giselle tonight.

She is wearing her fluffy pink cardigan and white net tutu skirt for practice. Her cardigan is super soft, which is perfect to keep her warm and toasty as she starts her plies in her first class of the day- barre work. Her white net tutu skirt is so puffy it floats around her as she leaps and spins, and is covered in little silver sparkles.

Maggie is made from pale beige fur, with pastel pink felt lining her long floppy ears. She has shiny black beaded eyes, and a brown embroidered nose. She has long cream floppy whiskers too. Her bunny foot pads are made of pastel pink felt, and her arms, legs and head are all jointed to enable movement. She is approximately 30cm (12”) tall and comes with her little certificate of authenticity, which can be personalised for the recipient.

Finally, no ballerina would be complete without her shoes, and Maggie has a brand new pair of pink ribboned ballet shoes to break in today- they won’t stay this clean for long!
