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!

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.
