Oh, darling, gather āround! Itās your glamorous girl, darling, with all the latest goss, right from the heart of the Royal Ballet. The year is 2000, a fresh start, a new millennium and, naturally, weāre all a bit flustered. But one thing remains eternally fabulous: tutus!
Thatās right, my loves, the epitome of twirl-worthy fashion is back, and Iām not just talking about the annual Christmas Nutcracker ballet at the Barbican. This week, we've seen an absolute *explosion* of tutu-mania hitting the streets, and frankly, Iām positively gagging to spill the tea!
Now, my darlings, I know what youāre thinking: "Tutus? Seriously, are they back in?" Yes, darling, they're back and with a vengeance! The very fabric of chic, the epitome of feminine grace - I'm talking ruffles, Iām talking layers, I'm talking glorious frothy clouds of tulle!
It seems our leading fashionistas have rediscovered the divine power of a well-crafted tutu. Letās face it, who doesn't feel like a princess when youāre sporting a cloud of tulle, perfect for twirling around a ballroom or catching a cab on your way to a cocktail party? Itās all the rage, my darlings!
And don't be thinking this is just about traditional pink tulle, darlings. No, this new tutu-mania is a kaleidoscope of colour! You've got bold blacks, glittering golds, dazzling blues, and even some wild patterns for the daring fashionistas. This is tutu on steroids, darling!
Naturally, darling, with any hot new trend, there are some truly dreadful knockoffs and attempts at copycatting. But fear not, dear readers! This seasoned fashion expert will reveal the top 3 "Don't's" to avoid turning your tutu into a fashion disaster.
Don't's:- Don't ever wear a tutu with anything too frumpy. The point of a tutu is that it screams fun, darling, not āafternoon tea with your mother.ā
- No black turtlenecks, darlings. Please, don't do that! It's just tragic.
- Unless your tutu is made for a performance and has proper undergarments for modesty, darlings, never forget, āThe more the merrierā doesn't apply to tutu-wear. Trust me. Your underwear should remain hidden.
Now, my sweet little peacocks, take a breath, grab a cuppa, and get ready for a little style education: the Do's and Don't's of rocking the tutu trend!
Do's:- Do make a statement, my darlings! A dash of daring in the form of a fabulous red lipstick and a confident stride ā that's the way to tutu-mania!
- Think accessorising, darlings! The best part about the tutu revival is it gives you a free pass to get super cute. Think bright, chunky earrings, sleek little ballet flats, and a fabulous, whimsical handbag. Make it an experience, not just an outfit!
- Be bold, be yourself, darling! Rock the tutu as only you can, and remember: lifeās a ballet, and we're all starring in it! And frankly, darlings, we canāt do that without our tutus!
But the absolute BEST advice? Confidence, my darlings! Confidence and a smile. Because no matter what, whether you're a born ballerina or a queen of high street shopping, you can own the tutu and own the room, darling! Youāre fabulous and I love it! Now, I'm off to go try on all the new tutu designs I've spotted at Selfridgesā¦ XOXO! Stay glamorous, you bunch of twirl-worthy darlings!
