I agree with everything said here- except my dd & I have had trouble with the hair bands in this set! I bought my dd the starter set on January 1st. The first thing she did when she got Isabelle home was pull out the the dance case - she tried to use the coral colored hair bands in Isabelle's hair & noticed they were not very stretchy! Which makes them pretty much unusable! When she tried to force them to stretch into Isabelle's hair they pretty much stretched out like an old hair band! So either way still unusable! We also have had problems with the bun helper- so I don't think it helps the value of the case! My dd is a dancer & I have to make a lot of buns but I have had trouble making them in Isabelle's hair with the bun helper & without! The bobby pins, while pretty colors, are almost too short to hold much of Isabelle's thick hair! Pretty disappointing for a $45.00 item to have so many unusable items! I don't think the stickers are anything great either!
My favorite thing about this set is the actual case since nothing inside has worked for us! But I agree I wish it was bigger to store more of Isabelle's collection in! I have been able to get most of the starter collection inside but anything else we purchase will most likely not fit! I do believe this dance case & it's accessories could have & should have been made better especially for the amount they are charging for it!
Oh I forgot about the ballet shoes they truly are the highlight of the set!
I found the ballet slippers to be very nice!
For all of you ballet dancers you may be disappointed that the bow on the slippers can not be tucked in! The bow is pretty much sewn on top! It could be easily removed I think if it would bother you but it doesn't bother my dancing daughter at all!
Overall-C- due to all of the unusable pieces in this expensive set!
