"Mimi la Rose", the first ballet since Françoise Sagan's "Le Rendez-vous manqué". Bal de la Rose gala dinner at the International Sporting Club in Monte Carlo, 1958.

Dancers perform "Mimi la Rose"—the first ballet since Françoise Sagan's "Le Rendez-vous manqué"—at the Bal de la Rose gala dinner at the International Sporting Club in Monte Carlo, 1958. On a dimly lit stage, a male dancer in a military-style tunic is flanked by two ballerinas in voluminous tulle skirts and elaborate, feathered updos. Captured under a dramatic spotlight, one is in mid-motion, her leg kicked high as the audience looks on from the surrounding shadows.
