Darling, September! The month of the new season, of fresh starts, of vibrant colours and of course, a brand new tutu. This season, forget the predictable and boring. We want **audacity**, we want **imagination** and we want **boldness**! Think away from the pastel pinks and blues, darling. This year is about the dramatic and the stunning, something to leave your audience breathless. Forget the 'same old' we're looking for the **WOW** factor.
The trick? It’s all in the **fabric**. A dramatic satin, a breathtaking organza – let your creativity flow! Remember, darling, the right fabric can transform the most simple of silhouettes into something truly extraordinary. I often suggest silk chiffon or even silk georgette - you know, they truly whisper rather than shout and allow the dancer's form to be perfectly showcased.
Don’t be afraid of **texture**, dear. Lace, feathers, even delicate beading – all these add that extra element of magic. But, just a touch is enough! We want subtle elegance, not a carnival parade. Remember, less is more and quality is key.
And **colour**, oh darling! We’ve had our fill of the predictable pink and white. This season is about a dramatic pop of colour! Think scarlet, deep emerald green, even a hint of cerulean blue. We are entering the era of a new **eccentricity**, but only if executed flawlessly, my dears. Let the bold colours whisper. There is a fine line.
Now, **for those who are not afraid to embrace the unusual**, I suggest a trip to Liberty of London or perhaps the lovely John Lewis. Don’t forget a trip to Fabricland and a peek at their range of stunning embellishments - just perfect for our theatrical and innovative tutu.
For a tutu of distinction, this is your shopping list: * **Fabric:** 2m Silk chiffon, 3 m Silk georgette - John Lewis or Liberty of London, darling * **Embellishments:** Feathers, pearls or beads for that subtle but stunning finishing touch – from Fabricsland. * **Tulle:** The finest French tulle, nothing less, my dears, from the exquisite shop “The Seamstress”. * **Elastic and ribbons:** Don’t forget, the little things are crucial - visit John Lewis for the highest quality and the perfect shades.But most importantly, darling, don’t be afraid to experiment. Make it your own! Add a personal touch. It’s your vision we want to see - the **drama** you can bring to life. It is a time to shine.
