Tutu and Ballet News

Oh darlings, the world is truly a stage, and today, March 20th, 2003, it was a very sparkly stage indeed!

As the news of international events unfolded, the world of dance, ever the dramatic force, put on a spectacle all its own! From London’s Covent Garden to New York's Lincoln Center, ballet companies all over the globe seemed to be in a “tutu-ing frenzy!”

But, I must tell you, dear readers, this isn't just about pirouettes and plies! No, no, it's about the most vital and vibrant piece of any ballerina's ensemble - the *tutu*!

For you see, today, dear readers, *tutues* aren't just for the stage. They've burst onto the streets! Fashionable folk, from society swans to wannabe ballerinas, are strutting about with the air of a prima ballerina in the park! You’d be surprised how well a blush pink tulle frock can lift a rather drab Wednesday lunchtime!

And just who are these brave souls daring to take tutu-ing to the next level? We hear whispers of celebrity sightings. From supermodels and actresses, the *tutu* craze has even caught the attention of the royalty! Our very own Duchess of Cambridge, apparently, is secretly a fan, even sported a delightful blue, one to a local garden club luncheon just yesterday! So, you see, dear readers, tutus are no longer just for the world of ballet, they are infiltrating all our lives! And what is better than being surrounded by a swathe of pink, powder-blue and sparkling tulle? Nothing, darlings! It's truly a *magical* event!

What is causing this global *tutu* mania? Experts are debating the reasons. Could it be that, in these uncertain times, we are seeking some sense of joy, some spark of magic? Or is it just a trend, an inescapable wave of femininity taking over our lives? Who knows!

But let's face it, even if we are only seeking comfort in this cloud of frivolous elegance, we are having a lot of fun along the way!

However, for those of you who don’t quite have the dancer's physique to carry off a tutu, don’t worry. We are in for a long tutu season, ladies! You can choose a *tutu* as big as a party dress for a glamorous evening out, or you can wear a more dainty, ethereal style, with just a hint of sparkle for daytime adventures. Perhaps even try a tutu-inspired skirt! And even if a tutu is too much for you, let’s all agree we are all a bit *ballerina chic* in our heart.

For now, dear readers, enjoy this tutu revolution! Dance, twirl, twirl and twirl until your heart’s content! Be daring, be elegant, and most importantly, be glamorous. The world is a stage, and we are all dancing together.
