Leon Samoilovitch Bakst, a renowned Russian painter and scene- and costume designer, created the costume design for Vaslav Nijinsky in the ballet 'La Péri' by Paul Dukas in 1911. This ballet, a one-act piece composed by Dukas, is a fantastical narrative centered around the quest for immortality and the mystical encounter between a human and a Peri, a mythical Persian fairy. Bakst's involvement in the production was a significant contribution to the visual and aesthetic elements of the ballet, enhancing its exotic and otherworldly atmosphere.

Bakst's design for Nijinsky's costume in 'La Péri' is a testament to his innovative approach and his ability to blend traditional and avant-garde elements. The costume is characterized by its intricate detailing, vibrant colors, and luxurious fabrics, reflecting Bakst's fascination with Orientalism and his skill in creating visually stunning and thematically appropriate attire. The design not only complemented Nijinsky's extraordinary dance abilities but also helped to convey the ethereal and magical qualities of the character he portrayed.

Bakst's collaboration with the Ballets Russes, under the direction of Sergei Diaghilev, was instrumental in revolutionizing ballet costume design in the early 20th century. His work on 'La Péri' is a prime example of how his designs transcended mere clothing to become integral components of the storytelling and emotional expression in ballet. The costume for Nijinsky in 'La Péri' remains a celebrated piece of theatrical design, showcasing Bakst's artistic vision and his contribution to the legacy of ballet as a multidisciplinary art form.
