Besides Balanchine's, she clothed many ballets for Michel Fokine, Leonide Massine, Frederick Ashton, Agnes de Mille, and Jerome Robbins, and reproduced in three dimensions the designs of some of the great artists of her time: Marc Chagall, Salvador Dali, Pavel Tchelitchew, Giorgio de Chirico, Isamu Noguchi, Andre Derain, Balthus, Christian Berard, Leon Bakst, Cecil Beaton, Joan Miro, and Robert Rauschenberg.
Particularly notable is the influence of Giorgio de Chirico and his followers, such as Filippo de Pisis, who called for a mythic art that would overcome the alienation of modern society.
Included in the collection were drawings by Picasso, many works by Leon Bakst, designs by Giorgio de Chirico (mainly for Le Bal), Andre Derain (mainly for Jack in the Box), Max Ernst, Joan Miro, Juan Gris, Pavel Tchelitchew, Natalia Gontcharova (for Les Noces), Alexandre Benois (for Petrouchka and other works), and Georges Rouault (for Prodigal Son).
