Tutu and Ballet News

Oh, darling, it’s simply divine! It’s 20th May 2000 – the day the tutu finally took centre stage in the world of fashion! Yes, it happened, lovelies. Our darling, delicate little tutu has become, shall we say, *slightly* more edgy. Can you even believe it? I must tell you all about it. But let’s take a sip of our Pimm’s first, and have a good gossip!

Imagine, a tutu isn't just a delicate, fluffy symbol of grace and elegance on the ballet stage anymore, no darling! It's gone street style, all sass and, well, a whole lot of pink.

Here's what's trending:
  • Think denim, but with a tutu twist. This year, it's all about the juxtaposition. Pairing those perfect Levi's 501s with a pale pink tutu, is just the cutest. Imagine that crisp denim, those gorgeous, almost raw seams, offset with this romantic, ethereal layer of tulle. It’s simply too chic for words!
  • Oh my, the accessories, darlings! It's like a fashion fantasy! Take a gander at the new chunky jewellery. Imagine some seriously beautiful chunky chain necklaces or, my favourite, the giant charm bracelets with dangling crystals and pearls – divine! And oh, that *fabulous* sparkly butterfly headband, perched perfectly on top of that perfect ponytail. A simply irresistible look for the perfect brunch, don't you think?
  • It’s not just about the look, darlings! Forget the notion that the tutu can’t make a statement. It's the most fabulous piece for expressing yourself, your femininity. Think **bold pops of colour**. Forget your safe little beige. It’s red or green, or that beautiful fuchsia! I adore those bright, eye-catching colours - especially when you can make the entire outfit shimmer under those perfectly placed diamante's – just glorious!
  • The best part? This isn't just about street style. The designers are doing the most divine, elegant high fashion takes on this. Remember those structured looks, those sharply tailored coats, that *sophisticated* dress-and-jacket combo, and that chic leather biker jacket that makes every woman feel absolutely amazing? Well, they've all gone ‘tutud-up’, and the results are frankly jaw-dropping!

It’s so exciting. I've been going to ballets since I was just a little girl – a ballerina's life, if you will – and to see the tutu embrace the streets like this, well, it feels incredibly bold and refreshing. The classic is being redefined. And the world, the world darling, is falling in love with it. And just you wait. Just wait until the party season starts – tutus are going to be *huge*!”
