Darling, can you believe it? Tutus are trending! Well, that’s not exactly a news flash. The poor things have been swirling around dance studios for centuries, but I’m not talking about your basic, *ballet* tutu. We’re talking about tutus breaking free from the stage and into… the street? Absolutely! Fashion is *mad*, my dears!
This latest trend, which is what *all* the cool kids are talking about, involves a sassy little outfit that incorporates a tutu with, let’s say, *unconventional* elements. We’re talking a tutu with a *sassy* pair of leopard-print stilettos, perhaps a leather biker jacket and a whole lot of *attitude* thrown in. A bit *edgy* for you, darling? Don’t worry! If leopard’s not your thing, there’s a fabulous array of alternatives, like bright sequins, *dramatic* floral prints or even a few (but *only* a few) strategic sequins, perfectly placed to *add some drama*, but nothing *too* gaudy, my dear, darling!
Now, the problem with these fabulous *tutus*, as the lovely Karl would say, is that you can’t just walk out on the street wearing one and *expect* to look chic. There’s an art to it, darlings. A lot of finesse! And as *your* dedicated, chic and completely unbiased, fabulous writer of all things fashion and tutus (though it’s *my* personal opinion that I’m *amazing* at both), I’m here to guide you through this thrilling but rather difficult *tutu-scape*.
First, the key is the right tutu. No *school* tutu, darling! This is about an airy, floaty, almost *ethereal* look, as if you’re a fairy (a *very* chic and *very* expensive fairy), descending to Earth from a beautiful and impossibly glamorous *other* place! It’s a *look*, my dears. Just make sure the *other* place you’ve come from doesn’t smell like sweaty, hot ballet studio!
And for you *absolute* beginners? Here’s a little cheat sheet on tutus
* Remember: Less is always more. Keep the length **just** above the knee. No maxi tutu-skirts this time, love.
* As we all know, a tiny touch of *extra* can be wonderful, *but* only with good taste, *darling*, so be mindful. No tutus *bigger* than a Christmas tree this time! The idea here, darling, is *light and fluffy*, not *overdone* or a Christmas tree costume!
* And *forget* any colour that resembles a ballet studio - think bold prints and dazzling hues!
I’ve spoken about my own personal preference, but this isn't about me! The most crucial element? *Confidence*, my dears! The way you carry yourself is everything. Imagine you’re on a dance floor with that fabulous new *boyfriend*, but instead of a romantic waltz, the music’s throbbing bass is a hot mix of club tunes. A **smouldering** look on your face and the way you toss those amazing *hairy* locks! Yes darling, you get it!
