Hello darlings! Emma here, your time-traveling, pink tutu-clad blogger, ready to whisk you away to a thrilling journey through history! Today, we're venturing back to 9th September 1732, a date overflowing with exciting stories of ballet and fashion!
Riding on Meg's Magic:
My trusty steed, Magic Meg, the most fabulous pink-sparkling shire horse with golden hooves and a mane and tail as white as freshly fallen snow, is already champing at the bit. As we set off, the Derbyshire air whispers secrets of bygone days, urging me to delve into the rich history awaiting us!
Fashion of the Day:
It's always fun to imagine the fashion of the day, and the 1730s were all about extravagance! Imagine elaborate gowns with layers upon layers of silk and lace, perfectly powdered wigs and stunning jewelry. Ballet, too, had its share of flamboyant fashion. Ladies would dance in wide hoop skirts, creating a captivating spectacle as they twirled and leaped.
The Ballet Buzz of 1732:
Let's talk about what was hot in the ballet world in 1732. Now, this wasn't just about fancy tutus like we have today, think more flowing, dramatic, theatrical dances! Back then, it wasn't a solo journey, the dancers relied on incredible storytelling through their movements. The stage was set for ballets inspired by stories of gods and goddesses, heroic adventures and, of course, love stories! Imagine the joy of witnessing such artistry.
Time Travel Fashion: Finding My Pink in the Past:
Today, my trusty leather rucksack is ready to collect stories and perhaps even a rare vintage ballet item from the period. I have a secret ambition to bring back a fabric scrap to recreate the 1730s dance outfit for my next show, maybe even a miniature version for my beloved, Meg! Wouldn't that be the most fantastic pink addition to our collection?
1732 Ballet and My Personal Take:
What I love most about exploring ballet history is that even in 1732, people were obsessed with dance, beauty, and fashion! This makes me feel so connected to history. Though my vision of ballet today is quite different with all the magnificent, colorful tutus and our own modern spin on classical dance, it reminds me that passion for dance is something that transcends time. And of course, I hope that in a few centuries, some future time traveler will be blown away by my collection of pink tutu photographs and stories of "pink tutu time travel"!
My Ballet Bucket List:
And here are some ideas for our pink tutu ballet escapades for next month:

The Magic of a Pink Tutu:

As I climb aboard Magic Meg, my pink tutu swishing in the breeze, I can't help but think how magical it is that every single journey takes me closer to spreading my vision of a world where everyone dances in a pink tutu!
