Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably now realized that the ballet-meets-fashion sensation is here to stay. And you’ve probably also realized that here at DS, we’re really, really psyched about it. The latest gem? Otherworldly Marie-Agnès Gillot, an étoile with the Paris Opéra Ballet, was tapped as an “October Muse” by Anthropologie—complete with a revealing interview, stunning photos and (best part!) a jaw-dropping video shot in the Palais Garnier.

Dedication’s an understatement. Watch the video below and be sure to check out the entire feature here!
