Dearest darlings! I hope you are well this month and ready to sparkle with this year's new trends. Let's talk tutus, darlings! As you know, tutus have been undergoing a renaissance recently, leaving behind the pristine white of our youth for a far more exciting palette and designs. We've had tutus in velvet, silk and tulle, some shimmering, others matte, but they've always carried an ethereal, almost celestial charm. Now, darling, you have to know, **it's not all about the tutu,** because to truly capture the heart of today's ballerina, you must consider the leotard. This month, the world's eyes are focused on a bold new silhouette for both the tutu and the leotard - a style that will be as coveted as the legendary diamonds on a Russian Crown.

This Month's Ballet Inspiration: The Celestial Rhapsody

The "Celestial Rhapsody" takes us on a breathtaking journey from a night sky painted with shimmering stars to the glow of dawn, and a day of brilliant sunlight illuminating a blossoming meadow. It's about bringing that celestial and nature-inspired beauty into your ballet attire! Let's begin with our tutu, shall we? A simple layered skirt will do the trick here. Think layers of featherlight chiffon in shades of navy, black and deepest plum. The "Celestial Rhapsody" silhouette demands elegance without being overwhelming.

How to Design: The Tutu:

  • We're opting for a short, bouncy tutu that skims just above the knee.
  • Think four tiers of varying lengths. The shorter tiers can be just the right amount of sheer and fluttery, and the longer tiers are for giving a little extra oomph as you twirl!
  • Each tier should be carefully gathered and ruched to achieve a full and captivating movement as you glide across the stage.
  • Don't be afraid of adding an array of sparkling stars, and sequins to embellish those layers, making it shine like a galaxy in motion.
  • A final touch of colour can be added by adding a couple of ribbons, strategically placed between the layers of fabric in contrasting tones to provide those breathtaking bursts of sunlight against the midnight canvas. A bold crimson or gold, just the tiniest splash, is ideal.
The Leotard

As I said, darling, you mustn't forget the leotard. The most elegant "Celestial Rhapsody" look calls for a black leotard in a slightly unconventional design, a beautiful contrast to our sky-inspired tutu.

  • Think a halter neckline. Now, the trick here is to make it truly striking by embellishing the edges of that neckline with strategically placed, large, gleaming gemstones. This, darlings, is what makes your leotard utterly celestial!
  • And, just for that touch of day breaking into day, don't forget the leg embellishment. Delicate embellishments can be incorporated across the legs of your leotard. The tiniest of gold sequins sewn in the shape of a gentle vine would make the whole look quite heavenly.

This month's "Celestial Rhapsody" isn't just about the look. It's about telling a story. It's about making the audience feel as though they are soaring through the galaxies, with the graceful movements of your form mimicking the stars above. And that, darlings, is the power of a beautiful and bold, new ballet design!
