The Ultimate Tutu for April
Darling, Spring is in the air! As a seasoned dancer, I’ve been watching fashion trends ebb and flow for decades and this month we’re embracing something whimsical, soft and, dare I say it, romantic. Think ethereal, think lightness and a touch of rebellion.
It’s time to elevate the classic tutu to new heights with a few key tweaks that will leave audiences swooning.
Let's create a tutu that combines elegance with a playful touch:
- Fabric: Opt for a cloud-like tulle that is oh so light, I'm thinking a blush pink that shimmers in the light. I find the **Tutu de Paris** selection to be absolutely divine, their tulle is so airy.
- Shape: A **classic Romantic tutu**, with several tiers cascading to the knee, adding a touch of drama and flair to every movement. If you're feeling adventurous, you can also incorporate a single layer of fine silk organza for added fluidity, like a whisper of air. Just don't go overboard - less is more.
- Finishing Touches: This is where the fun really starts. Delicate floral accents, or sparkling diamanté embellishments strategically placed just at the top of each layer will add that perfect dose of charm. And of course, **Tutu.com** for their bejewelled clips, simply heavenly.
- The Leotard: My dear, the perfect complement to this masterpiece. A smooth, skin-toned stretch leotard, allowing your grace to take centre stage, consider **Capezio** for the best quality in silk. It should be simple, timeless and with just the slightest touch of lace on the straps.
Remember, dear, fashion is all about feeling confident and expressing yourself. Don't be afraid to experiment and find what makes your own "spring" unique.
And most importantly, enjoy the journey! ❤
