Tutu pink

The pink tutu is a flared skirt for women, made of layers of soft pink tulle that taper into jagged points at the bottom. That pointed hem is what catches the eye first: the lower edge fans out slightly with every step. You can wear it during Carnival as the base of a ballerina outfit, but it is just as suitable for a fairy costume at a themed party.

Layers, points and waistband of the tulle skirt

• The skirt consists of several layers of tulle in a soft, light pink shade.
• The hem is cut into irregular points, so that the layers fall playfully over one another.
• At the top is a gathered waistband made of shiny fabric.
• On the inside is a pocket that fits the battery box of a string of lights. The string of lights itself is not included.
• The skirt is made for women and ends above the knee.
• The item is from Widmann and has item number 30093.

Because the hem tapers into points instead of falling straight, this tulle skirt looks airier and a bit wilder. If you are unsure about the style, choose it if you have a fairy or a playful party look in mind rather than a sleek ballet silhouette.

The ballet skirt outside the theater

In classical ballet, the short, flared tulle skirt is the dancer's costume: it leaves the legs free, so that every jump and turn remains visible. There is also the romantic version, which reaches halfway down the calf and falls more softly. As a costume, the ballet skirt has broken free from the stage and appears during Carnival, at festivals and at themed parties, often in a striking color and combined with a completely different costume.

How do you create a recognizable ballerina or fairy with the pink tutu?

You make a ballerina recognizable by keeping everything in the same light shade: a tight-fitting bodysuit with long sleeves, tights in the same soft color and the hair pulled tightly into a bun. If you want a fairy, wear a corset over it and complete the look with wings on your back and a flower crown in your hair. If you are going out in the evening, put the battery box of a string of lights in the inner pocket and let the lights shine through the tulle.
