etoile
Ballet's top dancer
Etoile is French for star, borrowed into English for contexts where a touch of elegance is wanted.
In ballet, an étoile is a principal dancer—the star of the company.
The word appears in restaurant names, fashion brands, and anything wanting Parisian sophistication: the Place de l'Étoile, an étoile of the Paris Opera Ballet.
