French-Swedish menswear label Ron Dorff is creating a capsule collection for Opera Garnier's La Galerie boutique, reports Women's Wear Daily.

The collection incorporates the Opera's artistic excellence, with t-shirts and sweatshirts using such dance expressions as "pas de deux" and "à la barre. Dance basics like shorts and sweatpants -- often worn before dancers go on stage -- will also be included in the collection.

The designer celebrated the new collection in a launch party at Paris's Opera Garnier on Tuesday night, where dancers performed a piece by Audrey Roehrich -- the ballet teacher to former Editor-in-Chief of Vogue Paris, Carine Roitfeld.
