Tutu Tuesday in Small Heath: Disco Fever Hits the Streets

Hello darlings! It’s your favourite ballet blogger and resident disco diva, and guess what? It's Tutu Tuesday, and let me tell you, the streets of Small Heath were absolutely poppin' today with shimmering, sparkly tulle galore!

It's been a while since the glorious, fabulous tutu has been seen out and about. In this fast-paced, modern world, it’s easy to forget about the classic beauty and timeless charm of a real, showstopping, dramatic, and elegant tutu! And why not embrace it? We’re talking tulle with a touch of sequins and some fabulously, flamboyant fun. Every tutu deserves a day out, right?

Forget those restrictive leggings – unleash your inner ballerina (or your inner disco diva) and throw on a tulle masterpiece!

From the delicate, floaty styles of the romantic era to the majestic grandeur of the classic tutu, it was all out on display today.

  • A true princess wore a perfectly symmetrical, powder pink, full-circle tutu – just like a Victorian princess, but she paired it with funky purple platforms for a modern twist, proving that even the classic tutu can be funky and glamorous.
  • One young gentleman even took on the trend, showing us all how men can do the Tutu look with confidence, rocking a beautiful, black, tulle cape with sequin accents and black disco-ball boots – you really gotta admire his boldness!
  • Another tutu goddess stunned everyone in a fiery red, multi-layered masterpiece – talk about an eye-catching and powerful look. You just couldn’t miss this fashion icon from a mile away! Her bright red ensemble was totally giving off some iconic Shirley Bassey vibes, she had this confidence, and this look – a truly inspiring ensemble.
  • The tutu was definitely out in full force. And even if it was a bit cold this Tuesday, everyone wore their tutus with such zest and pride, reminding us to never take life, and certainly not fashion, too seriously.
  • I've got to mention my absolute favourite tutu look: A daring beauty donned a sparkling, emerald green, tiered tutu with a daring side slit. Oh, la la! The way it shimmered in the sunshine – absolute perfection.
  • There was even a #discosnail rockin’ a little green tutu of its own – because even our slithering friends deserve a little tulle glamour! It’s definitely my spirit animal of the day. Don't tell my cats but it's probably my favourite creature too – my second favourite after the humble peacock, of course!

Small Heath, you are a real sartorial gem – showing the rest of Birmingham just what Tutu Tuesday can be all about.

If you haven’t done it yet, throw on a tulle, put on your favourite dancing shoes and make sure to get out there this Tuesday and enjoy the joy of the tutu.

Now if you’ll excuse me, my feet are twitching, and I need to practice a few pirouettes for next week’s Tutu Tuesday. Make sure to follow my Instagram, darling, I'll be showcasing my new Tutu design!
