Crystalizing the exoticism of the Ballets Russes, the Persian Dancers wear all of the attire most associated with the East--harem pants, turbans, jeweled armbands and curled-toe slippers. These costumes are similar to those worn by dancers Vaslav Nijinsky and Ida Rubenstein, who created a sensation in their Paris debut of the Ballets Russes performance of Scheherazade in 1910. Rubenstein appeared at the opening of the 1925 Exposition des Arts Décoratifs in her Bakst-designed costume from Scheherazade, illustrating the continuing appeal of this opulent style.
