The December Debutante: Designing Your Dream Tutu & Leotard Dearest dance divas, December is upon us! As the festive season swirls into view, let's channel that elegance and glamour into our own dancewear. We'll create a captivating ensemble, a sartorial statement that will turn heads in the studio. **Here's my recipe for December's most enchanting tutu and leotard:** **Tutu:** * **The Silhouette:** This month, we're embracing the full-bodied beauty of a classical, romantic tutu. Think layers of tulle, flowing gracefully with each pirouette. Opt for a tiered design, showcasing cascading tiers for a truly ethereal effect. * **The Fabric:** Let's choose a delicate, translucent tulle that whispers like the first snowfall. Look for tulle with a touch of shimmer, catching the studio lights like twinkling stars. My favorite source for exquisite tulle is *Sew Happy Fabrics* (find them online). * **The Finishing Touch:** Embellish your tutu with elegant accents! Think tiny sequins or beads clustered around the waistband or scattered strategically across the tiers. A sprinkle of tiny silver stars for a touch of whimsy? Absolutely! Remember, *less is more*. **Leotard:** * **The Style:** We'll keep our leotard chic and streamlined. A classic, simple silhouette is perfect for showcasing your graceful lines. Choose a high neckline or a subtle sweetheart neckline, whichever complements your figure best. * **The Colour Palette:** This December, let's embrace the festive mood with rich, decadent colors like burgundy, sapphire, or emerald green. For a bolder statement, consider a black leotard accented with silver sequins. * **The Details:** Let's add a touch of luxury. Opt for a velvet leotard with delicate, beaded straps. Or consider adding a simple bow with a touch of lace to the back for a touch of Parisian elegance. I suggest you find a great variety of colours and embellishments at *Dancewear Delights* – they’re a treasure trove! **Accessorising:** * A ballet wrap in a complimentary shade of your chosen colours, or a simple cardigan in black or a dark neutral, will keep you warm during cool studio nights and offer a chic touch when not dancing. * For footwear, classic satin pointe shoes in a shade to coordinate with your leotard will finish the look off perfectly. If your routine allows, a pair of beautifully sculpted ballet flats adds a different feel for a festive performance. A Word of Inspiration As always, dearest dancers, embrace the elegance and the joy of this magical month! Let your spirit soar with each pirouette and arabesque. Remember, your dance is your unique gift to the world - make it shine!
