This season, Gateshead's ballet scene is buzzing with excitement, and with so much inspiration swirling around, it's the perfect time to revamp your ballet wardrobe! Let's dive into the key trends that are making waves this summer:

Remember that classic, elegant white tutu you might have envisioned? While it remains timeless, this season is all about vibrant, cheerful shades. Think juicy tangerine, dazzling sunshine yellow, and my personal favourite – vibrant pink, of course! Whether you opt for a single bold hue or experiment with a colour block design, there's no better way to bring some summery flair to your routine.

Shop Local: My favourite spot to find vibrant tutus in Gateshead is The Dance Boutique. They have an incredible selection, from budget-friendly to high-end brands, in every colour imaginable. You can always find something special there.

Say goodbye to boring, plain tutus and embrace the bold and playful world of prints! From adorable floral patterns to whimsical polka dots, this summer is all about adding a touch of whimsy to your dancing.

Tip: If you're feeling adventurous, opt for a patterned leotard or warm-up top to complement a plain tutu, or vice versa. It's all about finding the right balance!

The traditional, frilly tutu still reigns supreme, but modern interpretations are shaking things up. Look out for shorter, more contemporary styles that are just as stylish but offer more movement freedom. Asymmetrical designs and layered textures are also making a statement.

Go beyond the usual silky smooth tulle. Embrace textures this summer with options like lace, chiffon, and even satin. You'll not only create stunning visual interest but also experience a range of textures against your skin, making every step even more luxurious.

Personal Favourite: I adore this elegant lace tutu with a soft, pink chiffon overlay. It's truly a masterpiece. I found it at "Ballet Boutique" in Gateshead, which always has the most beautiful and unique pieces!

While the tutu steals the show, let's not forget about the rest of the outfit! Summer's the perfect time to incorporate bold statement pieces into your look.

• Headbands: I'm a huge fan of chunky headbands in summer, especially ones adorned with colourful flowers or ribbons. They add instant elegance to your style.

• Accessories: Go for stylish ballet flats or dance sneakers with vibrant prints or embellishments. Or embrace a cute wristwatch for a dash of everyday glamour.

One thing I love about Gateshead is the dedication to celebrating its own identity. We have an exciting and diverse arts scene that heavily inspires my fashion choices.

For a more local touch: Why not try a tutu designed by a local artisan? Our region boasts talented designers crafting unique, high-quality garments, including tutus. This will not only add personality to your look but also support the thriving local arts scene.

This summer, make a splash with your tutus! Experiment with bright colors, playful patterns, and unique textures. Dance your way into the summer sun, confidently owning your style and adding your personal flair to the Gateshead ballet fashion scene!
