Hey everyone! Emma here, your local ballet-obsessed fashionista. As the sun shines down and the days grow longer, it’s time to embrace summer vibes - even in the world of ballet! So, I thought it was high time I had a chat about tutu styles, Mitcham style, because honestly, this town’s got a unique spin on classic ballet fashion!
From Class to Coffee Date: A Summer Tutu Revolution
There’s a misconception that tutus are only for the stage, but trust me, the right tutu can take you from barre to brunch without missing a beat! This summer, I'm all about versatility – tutus that can handle a morning ballet class and still look fab at an afternoon coffee date.
Pink Power: Mitcham's Colour of the Season
This might seem obvious coming from me, the queen of pink, but pink is the colour of the season, Mitcham-style. It’s bold, playful, and utterly timeless. Think pale blush pinks for a delicate, romantic vibe, vibrant fuchsia for a pop of energy, and even the bolder, slightly daring hot pinks for a statement look.
Tutus: A Whirlwind of Shapes and Sizes
Forget those stiff, traditional tutus you might think of. This summer, it's all about flow and movement! I'm obsessed with flowing tulle, lightweight fabrics, and designs that capture that breezy summer feeling. Whether you prefer the dramatic sweep of a full skirt or the playful twirl of a shorter, tiered tutu, the key is to pick something that feels like you – and, of course, looks good with a hint of pink.
Mitcham's Favourite Tutu Styles:
The Romanticist: Imagine the tutu straight out of Swan Lake, but lighter and dreamier. A soft, blush-pink, full-length skirt with delicate, shimmering embellishments – it's ethereal and perfect for any balletic fairy out there.
The Modernist: Think geometric patterns, colour-blocking, and playful shapes. This style has a youthful energy and an air of avant-garde chic. Picture a vibrant fuchsia, fitted top with a shorter, layered skirt that features unique, contemporary design elements.
The Bohemian Princess: Forget the strict rules, this style is all about freedom. A loose, flowing skirt, often made with layers of sheer fabric, with hints of intricate patterns and lace. Think dusty pinks and lavender tones, paired with a flowing, bohemian top – the perfect look for a lazy summer day.
Adding Your Personal Touch
Tutu fashion is a canvas waiting to be painted! Add your own personality with some summery accessories:
- Hair Accessories: This is my go-to! Delicate floral crowns, pink ribbons woven into a braid, or sparkly clips can transform a tutu look.
- Bold Sunglasses: This adds a cool edge to any tutu style. Look for sunglasses with a statement frame or retro vibe, always in shades of pink!
- Statement Jewelry: Add pops of colour with a pink pendant or even a vintage charm necklace – perfect for complementing your personal touch to your tutu look.
Beyond the Dance Studio
Let's face it: these aren't just for the dance floor anymore! The right tutu can make a statement in so many settings:
- Outdoor Concerts: Turn heads at an outdoor concert by pairing your tutu with a flowy top and a cool leather jacket for a casual, boho-inspired look.
- Festival Chic: The classic tutu pairs beautifully with floral crowns, boots, and denim jackets for a festival vibe that’s as fun as it is unique.
Summer Soirees: If you want to add a dash of playful glamour to a summer soiree, opt for a shorter, pink tutu with a silk cami top for an effortlessly stylish look.
