Hey ballerinas! It's Emma here, and with a crispness in the air and the leaves starting to turn, there's no better time to embrace autumn than with a dash of ballerina chic. While summer may be over, our love for tutus certainly isn't! 🍂🩰
As a Borhamwood girl at heart, I've got my eye on the most gorgeous, autumn-inspired tutu styles for you all. Think cozy, warm hues, textures, and a hint of playful whimsy – the perfect mix for both on and off the stage.
Let's delve into the enchanting world of autumnal tutu fashion!
Embracing the Warmth: Autumn's Colour PaletteWe all know how much I love pink, but autumn screams for richer tones! 🧡Think fiery reds, deep oranges, rich golds, and the mystical browns and greys that Mother Nature paints so perfectly. Embrace these colours in your tutu fashion - whether it's a sleek velvet bodice, a dramatic burgundy tulle skirt, or a cozy knit sweater in an earthy tone.
My Tip: Don't be afraid to mix and match these autumnal shades for a statement-making look! A mustard yellow tutu with a deep burgundy velvet top can create an absolute masterpiece.
Texture: Feeling Cosy in StyleAutumn's a time to get cozy, and that applies to your tutus too! Let's welcome textured fabrics like velvet, satin, and cashmere to elevate your wardrobe. Think a soft, flowing satin tutu paired with a chunky knit sweater for an effortless yet luxurious look. Or a velvet leotard under a fluffy, feathered tutu for a touch of glamour.
My Tip: Look for luxurious fabrics like merino wool or mohair for that added touch of warmth and comfort. A mohair sweater over a ballet skirt is a classic autumn combo.
Statement Accessories: It's All in the DetailsAdding the right accessories can truly transform your tutu look.
Statement Jewelry: Consider bold statement pieces like a chunky, textured necklace or eye-catching earrings in warm metallics, like gold or bronze. Don't be afraid to experiment with vintage finds or unique handmade pieces for a touch of individuality.
Chic Headbands: Embrace the versatility of a headband for that extra touch of autumnal elegance. Look for warm colors, velvety textures, or even add a tiny, sparkly embellishment for a touch of ballerina sparkle.
Boots and Tights: Embrace autumn’s signature boots, like ankle boots, heeled booties, or even thigh-high boots, all of which create a chic contrast against a ballerina's flowing tutu.
My Tip: Tights aren't just for ballet class anymore! Invest in a good quality pair in autumnal shades like deep brown or a warm burgundy for a polished, on-trend look.

My Top Autumn Looks:
Here's a few tutu looks I've created myself, all with a little autumnal inspiration:
Cozy Chic: Deep crimson velvet leotard paired with a warm, chocolate brown tutu. Finish with a pair of fluffy brown socks and sleek, black ankle boots. A splash of burgundy lipstick completes this autumnal dream.
Golden Glamour: A stunning golden-yellow tulle skirt, paired with a chunky black knitted sweater. The warmth of the colours really makes this look sing! Accessorise with a beautiful antique-style pendant necklace.
Sophisticated Streetwear: Embrace an earthy tone with a brown velvet tutu. A long-sleeved, olive green blouse completes the outfit and you can add a distressed leather jacket for an edge. Black thigh-high boots add the final touch of fashion and a nod to the current trend of high fashion footwear.
So, remember ballerinas, your tutu season doesn't end just because the weather changes. Let’s embrace the autumnal hues, cosy textures and unique accessories and dance our way through this enchanting season in style! Let's continue to find those chic, bold outfits and show the world how graceful and expressive our tutus can be – even with the leaves falling! Remember, it's all about feeling confident, having fun, and making a statement.
Until next time, stay stylish! #tutufashion 🍂🩰
