Yes. Drastically. Sometimes....most of the time, it depends on the style of Ballet, the ballet company and who makes the costumes. For example: The Swan Lake head pieces used to be all feathers. They went on you forehead (where the hair stops) and over your ears. Now they are (ABT style) crowns. A lot of old Russian Vagonava costumes are still in use and it is tradition to use the old costumes for a Nutcracker of Copellia production.
