Tutu and Ballet News

Oh darling, it's Tuesday 12th October, 2000. The Millennium is here and so is the latest in fashion trends – Tutus!

Forget about those stuffy, prim and proper ballet tutus of old! This autumn, we're talking tutu *evolution*, a revolution in dancewear, my lovelies. From street chic to high-end runway, the humble tutu has gotten a *major* makeover, and let me tell you, it’s absolutely *divine*.

Who would have thought that this icon of elegance and tradition would take centre stage in our everyday wardrobes? It's like taking a graceful pirouette from the stage right into the streets, darling. You simply *have* to try it.

**Tutu trends this autumn:**

  • Mini tutus: Think of the cute little twirls! These darling tutus sit above the knee, perfect for showcasing those killer legs and making you feel like you’re floating on a cloud.
  • Tutu skirts: An updated take on the classic ballerina skirt, with more versatile styles. You can even wear them with leggings or tights, so you can get your graceful *and* comfortable groove on!
  • Embellished tutus: Sequins, crystals, you name it – our tutus have gotten a *serious* sparkle makeover, darling. You can dance all the way to your favourite nightspot looking like a glamorous ballerina!
  • Everyday tutu looks: These days, the tutu isn’t just for special occasions! The key is to pair them with everyday staples. You can even rock a chic tutu look with a cozy jumper and biker jacket. This season, let’s all embrace the beauty and practicality of the *perfect* tutu.

Darling, a tutu is like a little black dress for your legs – it flatters everyone, from the smallest to the most statuesque figure, and adds a touch of *je ne sais quoi* to every look.

Here's a quick guide for wearing tutus this autumn (Because even ballerinas have *rules*, honey.):

  • For day: Opt for simple, midi-length tutu skirts and a classic cotton shirt. It's the perfect outfit for running errands or catching a coffee with your girlfriends – *and* it gives off that effortless cool-girl vibe, honey. Just remember, with tutus, confidence is key.
  • For evening: Don't be afraid to *sparkle*! Channel your inner ballerina in a shimmering tulle mini-tutu, topped with a silk blouse and a pair of heels – for a night on the town, you'll be the ultimate head turner.
  • With jeans: Yes, you heard me right. Don’t let anyone tell you can’t! The ultimate “tomboy meets ballerina” style - it’s all about rocking that *contrast*, sweetheart! Simply throw on your favourite jeans with a mini-tutu, some killer boots and a casual sweater for a chic look.
  • And don’t forget the accessories! For a more relaxed vibe, choose flat shoes or sneakers. To add some glam, choose delicate gold or silver jewellery and make a statement with a striking clutch.

So what are you waiting for, darling? Step out of that comfort zone and let the tutu-licious revolution begin! You’re sure to have the most fabulous autumn, you truly are, you magnificent creature!

XOXO, your favourite dance guru
