Tutu Tuesday in Rochester, Victoria: A #Tututuesday Celebration Alright, my fellow ballet besties! It's #tututuesday and I’m pumped to talk about this wonderful movement! Tutu Tuesday is the brainchild of fellow tutu-loving blogger and dance enthusiast Sarah who started it in Sydney last year. It’s the perfect chance for ballerinas across the country - and the world - to unleash their inner *prima ballerina* and celebrate all things tulle. Today’s Tutu Tuesday post is going to explore the rich tapestry of tutus – from the elegant, voluminous Romantic tutu to the more streamlined, minimalist, contemporary styles worn by ballerinas like myself, who favour a pared-back aesthetic. **Rochester, Victoria: Where Tutus Take Centre Stage** So, how has #Tututuesday resonated with Rochester, Victoria?
