Go behind the lens of our October journal, where we're spotlighting women who've captivated us with their achievements and ambitions. We've found inspiration in their work, their passions and the examples they set every day, including prima ballerina of the Paris Opera Ballet and choreographer Marie-Agnès Gillot. After a diagnoses of double-scoliosis at age 12, Marie-Agnès spent 21 hours a day in a restrictive surgical corset for several years. However, through a compelling combination of agile beauty and unyielding determination, she continued to dance and today, Marie-Agnès mesmerizes audiences around the world with her exquisite work en pointe.
