Black and red ballet tutu

Chantelle
If you are looking for a striking combination of colour, red and black will certainly have maximum impact. These colours are traditionally worn for Spanish style choreographed dances but sometimes it can be good to think outside the square and wear this colour combination for a fast and vibrant dance.

Pink Ballet Tutu off to Singapore

There are so many beautiful sequined laces to choose from now which I have utilised on a number of occasions. But I thought I would embellish a tutu by making use of the lovely trims and braids as well as a few crystals available.

Classical Ballet Tutu Spanish Style

Combination of white shantung fabric and coral red beaded and sequined lace makes for the perfect Spanish style ballet tutu. Possible ballets come to mind Don Quixote, Carmen...
Tutus are all individually designed for each dancer.

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.
