Tutu Tuesday in Armour, Ontario: A Fashionable Flutter #tututuesday Oh, hey there, fellow ballet enthusiasts! It’s your girl, Chloe here, bringing you another dose of fashion-forward dance from right here in Armour, Ontario. Today’s all about **Tutu Tuesday** and how we can make this beloved piece of dancewear truly shine. I know what you're thinking: tutus are *so* classic, *so* traditional. But let me tell you, even the most classic tutu can be totally **modernized**. Just like Canadian hockey, there's a whole range of styles. * The Romantic Tutu: This tutu is a staple in any ballet dancer's wardrobe. It features a wide, full skirt that’s perfect for those graceful pirouettes and delicate, dreamy ballets. It's all about soft tulle, lots of layers, and romantic flow. * The Classical Tutu: You can't talk about tutus without mentioning the classic! The most iconic of all the tutu styles. It’s made of stiff layers of tulle, typically white or black, and is all about control, structure, and those iconic grand jeté poses. I love how these have the iconic, traditional silhouette, yet there’s still so much room for variations in length, colour and decoration. And it goes without saying that these look especially amazing on stage under the spotlight! * The Contemporary Tutu: This tutu is the modern twist on the classic styles, typically shorter in length and often more fluid, made with more flexible materials. Think flowy layers of fabrics in surprising colors or even some unconventional shapes. They add an edgy touch, perfect for showcasing those contemporary ballets with expressive movements and sharp turns. Finding Your Perfect Tutu: Now, how do we, as fellow dance lovers, make these tutus a part of our personal styles? Let’s take some inspiration from fashion icon #tututuesday. * Wear a tutu for a casual look - It might be unexpected, but trust me on this one! You can add a fun twist to your jeans and t-shirt by adding a simple tutu, even one that’s not overly frilly or grand. Choose a short tutu for a playful vibe, and pair it with boots or flats to balance out the girly feel. * Get playful with your outerwear: Imagine adding a tutu to your warm-weather coat! Whether it's a classic peacoat or a denim jacket, layer on a short tutu to elevate your casual vibe to something stylishly unexpected. This is where those contemporary, shorter, and flexible tutus are great! * Spice up your party looks: Tutu can be party perfect! You don’t need to wear the full costume to capture that ballet-inspired feeling. Instead, try a delicate tutu as a layer underneath a black dress. This touch of tulle creates subtle, romantic detail. * Find your personal style: From soft and romantic to dramatic and bold, you can truly customize your own tutu for the occasion. Look at it as a statement piece in your closet, a canvas that you can personalize! * Shop locally, support your dance community: Look for boutiques in your local town or even a local dance shop! Often you'll find high-quality dancewear, and the friendly folks working in these stores can really give you the personalized service that helps you find exactly what you want. And we need to keep these stores thriving and supporting all things ballet!
