Posted by Sally on January 10th, 2017

Baby tutu skirts are loved by little girls because it makes them feel like a princess.  They are very popular among ballet dancers with a bodice attached.  The length of the tutu may vary between the knee and ankle.  The skirt is made of muslin, tulle, silk, nylon, gauze, or tarlatan.  The classical tutu is generally stiff and short whereas the romantic one is more bells shaped and falls more softly around the legs.  Tutu makers embellish their costumes with beads, sequins, crystals, and metallic stones to make it stand out during performances.  Other materials that were used to decorate tutu skirts included seed pearls, gold, bone buttons, silver or bronze.  

Choosing the Right Fabric for Your Baby Tutu Skirt

Baby tutu skirts made of soft materials like soft cotton and tulle is preferable for little ones as it is gentler on their skin.  There are a lot more decorations available in the market as well as information regarding them thanks to online stores.  Tutu makers therefore have a wide variety to choose from when they design tutu skirts.  If the skirts are being used for the stage or a special occasion, they will decide on the adornments depending on the set as well as the décor and music that is going to be used.

Types of Baby Tutu Skirts

Baby tutu skirts in the UK are available in different colors to suit the occasion or the theme.  A bodice is attached to the skirt when worn for ballets or other performances.  The modern form of tutu skirts comes in different versions.  It could be the classical type in which the lower layers help the upper layers to flare out from the hip.  The pancake tutu has very few ruffles with a hoop supporting it.  The platter tutu skirt starts out from the waist.  In the American tutu, an attempt is made to soften the effect by attaching the tulle ruffles to underclothes.

Accessorizing the Tutu Skirt Correctly

Baby tutu skirts in the UK can be made to specifications such as those with skirts that flow and drape or ones that stick out straight from the hip.  The ones that drape need less fabric.  The ones that are flared need very many layers with the ones underneath being shorter to allow the skirt to flare out really well.  There are some do’s and don’ts that have to be followed when wearing tutu skirts.  The top has to be fitted although the material can vary from silk or cashmere to denim or cottons depending on the occasion.  It can make you look really glamorous when accessorized with suitable shoes and jewelry.  If the skirt is beautifully embellished, it is better to have a plain top to set off the embroidery or decorations on the skirt.
