Tips and Tricks for Wearing a Tutu

Tips and Tricks for Wearing a Tutu

• Unless it’s Halloween, don’t pair anything tutu-like with a wrap sweater, leotard, leg warmers, or a bun – these items will make your ensemble look costume-y.
• Contrasting textures look great with tulle. Fabrics like leather, denim, or suede will keep your outfit from looking too girly.
• Speaking of girly, a tutu paired with lace or sequins could be overwhelming. So keep the rest of youroutfit toned down, and let your skirt have all the attention.
• Because tutu skirts are voluminous, they generally look best paired with fitted tops. Add a cropped jacket for a super chic look.
• An authentic ballet tutu might be hard to find, so try looking for a tulle skirt or dress. It’ll give you the tutu look without being too extreme.
• Shoes, as always, are an important part of your look. I love how ankle boots and spike-y stilettos look with full skirts like tutus. For a really daring look, try wearing a tutu with combat boots or even Converse All Stars!
• Chunky jewelry will toughen up the look of a tutu. Try a statement necklace or a cocktail ring.
• Remember that this look is supposed to be playful and quirky. Rock it with confidence and you’ll be sure to look amazing!
