This was Ricky's first full length ballet with Holly Hynes. As the assistant costume designer, Ricky helped Holly bid and budget the ballet in 21 shops in New York and across the country. He also swatched and purchased most of the ballet. Ricky coordinated out of town fitting trips and travel plans with stage management and company management. Ricky's other main job was creating a magical world of sparkle with the use of rhinestones on the over 250 costumes.
