By Emma, your tutu-obsessed fashion blogger
Hey everyone! It's Emma here, back with another fashion adventure, this time tackling the glorious yet sometimes daunting task of keeping our ballet-inspired wardrobes on point throughout autumn. Now, as much as I love a good summer sundress and those ethereal light tutus, there's something undeniably enchanting about autumn fashion, particularly when we can bring those classic ballet vibes into play.
Forget the idea of packing away our tutus just because the weather turns a bit cooler – let's embrace the transition with a sophisticated take on autumnal tutu fashion that’ll have us twirling through those crisp leaves like it's nobody's business!
The Colour Palette:
We can’t talk about autumnal fashion without addressing the glorious colour palette it offers. Think deep reds, warm oranges, earthy browns, and those luscious ochre and mustard shades that remind us of falling leaves. Now, how to translate those beautiful autumn colours into tutu fashion, you ask? Think of it as layering a little romance and sophistication over our favourite tulle, like we are preparing for an enchanting autumn ballet.
Layer up!
Autumn means it's time to get creative with layering. For me, a trusty beige knitted cardigan (preferably with a touch of sparkle, naturally!) is the key piece. Layer it over a simple black bodysuit and a wispy, flowing white tutu – we're going for that ‘classic dancer in the park’ vibe.
The tutu:
A good autumn tutu shouldn't just be about colour; it's about creating an elegant flow. We're talking about longer tulle layers, perhaps with some slight ombre effects. If you’re brave enough to embrace the current trends, experiment with the 'demi-tutu' style for a slightly more modern feel.
Shoes, the ultimate finishing touch
Now, when it comes to shoes, autumn gives us a fantastic opportunity to swap the summer sandals for some elegant boots! You can’t beat a classic ankle boot in a soft suede for a touch of sophistication and elegance. For the bold souls out there, maybe experiment with some embellished thigh-high boots to take things up a notch. And remember, we are always on the lookout for shoes with a subtle ballerina-inspired flair – delicate bows, little embellishments, and, of course, those pointed toes!
My Top Tips for Rocking Autumn Tutu Fashion
Here are a few simple tips to keep in mind:
- Texture is everything. Embrace textures like velvet, corduroy, and lace. Those will add depth and elegance to your look. Think a delicate lace trim peeking out from under a velvet top!
- Embrace those bold colours! As we’ve established, this season screams for jewel tones, deep hues, and a few pops of vibrant orange. Remember, a splash of colour adds personality and sets off any elegant autumn tutu.
- Accessorize! Remember a touch of sparkle makes every outfit magical. A glittering hairpiece, a jeweled statement necklace, or even a cute pair of ballet flats adorned with a crystal detail. Let's get those fairy tale vibes flowing!
