Darling, summer is in the air, and what better way to celebrate the sunshine and light than with a new tutu or leotard design? This month, we’re going for a look that’s both ethereal and effortlessly chic, and it all begins with choosing the perfect base.
For a tutu:- Opt for a classic, full-length tulle skirt, like the ‘Romantic Dream’ from DanceWear UK.
- For a touch of whimsy, consider a tiered design, as seen in the ‘Summer Serenade’ tutu by Allegro Designs.
For a leotard, consider a sleek, scoop-neck style in a delicate shade like blush pink, lilac, or lavender. Look for fabrics that drape beautifully, like a soft jersey blend. Some of our top picks include:
- The ‘Silken Whisper’ leotard from Capezio.
- The ‘Floral Fantasy’ leotard by Blooming Ballet.
Now, let’s talk embellishment. To truly capture that ethereal feel, we need something light and whimsical. This season, it’s all about:
Embellishments:- Feather accents are utterly chic. Think delicate feathers on the bodice of a leotard, or fringing the edge of a tulle tutu. Explore the collection at Feathers for Dancers.
- Swarovski crystals are a timeless touch. You can add individual crystals to a leotard for a subtle sparkle or use them to create a dramatic pattern on the skirt of your tutu. Crystal Sew is the place to find the finest crystals.
- Flowers are always a hit. Delicate floral appliqués, particularly those made of satin or velvet, are a gorgeous choice for the season. Try Blossom Boutique for gorgeous designs.
Of course, your look wouldn’t be complete without the right accessories. Consider a dainty, pearl necklace or bracelet, and for a bit of flair, add a headband with a single, beautifully crafted bloom.
Don’t forget the makeup, darling. A soft blush, shimmering eyeshadow, and a touch of nude lipstick will complete the look perfectly. But, let’s not go overboard! We want that effortless elegance, remember?
And with these touches of glamour and elegance, your June designs are sure to capture everyone's attention on and off the stage.
