Sara's First Tutu

The brief was blue and a design to suit the music "The Blue Danube". Hopefully this ballet tutu meets all the requirements.

Time to ponder..

Kitri Tutu designed and beaded by me 2011

This year I decided not to do end of year Xmas Concerts so I can concentrate on playing around with a few design ideas for tutus. Sometimes its nice to be able to take the time to produce a unique quality costume rather then churning out lots of  tutus that start to look all the same.

Bright coloured tutus are popular at competitions but a pastel colour can be just as effective on stage. Jasmine is wearing a pale lilac tutu embellished with white lace, sequins and crystals.

Latest Ballet Tutu Creation

This stretch ballet tutu combined a combination of lace, braid and glitter fabric for the finishing touches..

More than just tutus

Over the years I have made many dance costumes. Indi wore my costume at the Alana Haines Awards in New Zealand last year.

Stretch Tutus becoming increasingly popular

More recently I have been making a lot more stretch tutus particularly for the younger dancer. With the abundance of stretch fabrics available tutus can be made to look similar to their classical fabric counterpart. Here a couple of recently made stretch tutus..


When the customer requested a yellow tutu with pink and yellow decoration, I was a little bit sceptical whether the colour combination would work. However, I chose a pink lace with apricot & yellow tonings in the  sequins to meld the colours together. I think it works!

Just the right amount of blue...

Cream Stretch Ballet Tutu

This design would be ideal for Sleeping Beauty's Aurora wedding dance. The combination of the cream coloured lycra and gold & silver sequined lace gave a very soft feminine appearance.

One of my favourites...

This lace was exquisite - the customer purchased this lace & wanted to maximise it's use as well as being able to reuse it on another tutu in the future. I managed to achieve both requirements on a traditional boned tutu. Very happy customer!

Busy time of year!

Where has the year gone? I actually thought costume orders would slow down with families struggling to keep up with the economic times but I am pleased to say that the show still must go on. I have been fortunate enough to travel overseas this year and purchase some magnificent laces that I have incorporated into the tutus. Lots of happy faces with finished product.
