Gabriela Hearst and photographer Nikolai von Bismarck hosted an intimate book signing of the limited edition book of frameable prints by photographer Nikolai von Bismarck of the San Francisco Ballet’s production of Carmen at the Beverly Hills flagship location. The book documents Hearst’s costume design debut for the ballet in April 2024, captured through von Bismarck’s lens.
Gabriela Hearst had created the costumes crafted entirely from merino wool, one of the thinnest and high
performance natural fibers. The dancers were dressed in vibrant red, sunflower yellow, and black ribbed
merino wool sets that accent the body and movement.
Von Bismarck’s photography captures the raw physicality and emotional intensity of the production,
presented in a frameable print book where each high-quality image is designed to be removed and displayed
as a collectible work of art.
The limited edition book of frameable prints is available in three color combinations—black/red, red/black,
and yellow/black—at the Beverly Hills, New York and London flagship stores and on gabrielahearst.com.
