 Elegance, sophistication, sense of style, the nobility of a dance style — all these qualities make it possible to speak of Chauvire as a representative of a French classical school. Almost all of her ballet career was associated with S.M. Lifar, who led the troupe during the 1930-1950s and in whose performances she created numerous stage images. These are the ballets Alexander the Great (music by F. Gober, 1937), Triumphant David (music by V. Rieti. 1937), Knight and Girl (music by Gobert, 1941), Joan from Tsarissa (music by V. Egka, 1942), Suite in White ( music by E. Lalo, 1943) and others. The actress showed rare drama and expression in the ballet Istar (music by V. d'Andy, 1941), playing the title role of the Babylonian goddess, as well as in the ballet Mirages (music by A. Soge, 1947), dancing the party of the Shadow, embodying the idea of ​​tragic debt.
 Among the best classical roles of Shovire are Giselle (choreographers J. Corally and J. Perrot, music by A. Adana), Shovire became famous for her interpretation of the miniature of MM Fokin The Dying Swan (to the music of C. Saint-Saens).
 At the end of her artistic career she taught at the Paris Opera in the class of leading ballerinas.
