Tutus may be one layer or layered. Tutus can be made from a variety of colors, or be one single color. Tutus can be plain (just the netting fabric) or there may be embellishments, such as a ribbon border, some ribbon bows, beading, sequins, etc. The fancier it looks, the better it will be for evening wear, while less embellished versions are great for day wear. Some tutus are even reversible (different color each way around), making them more versatile within your wardrobe. Real ballet tutus are a bit full on for fashion wear. But there’s nothing stopping you trying. . .

If you’re not sure, stick with black or white or silver/gold; these are nice and neutral and are easily paired with many other color schemes.

Wear skinny jeans; anything bulky or baggy will look odd and overwhelming. Consider matching the color, although blue or black denim are just fine with most other colors.

During winter, a thin turtleneck sweater, chunky tights, short boots and a tutu makes a very original (and cute) statement.

For the ultimate “ballet-hits-the-street” look, wear a wrap cardigan, don some leg warmers and put your hair in a bun. Shoes could also be heels but with the standard ballet shoe ribbons wrapped from heel right up your legs.

Wear a denim jacket for the weekend. Wear a suit jacket for work or more formal occasions.

Girly wear such as pearl and ribbon necklaces can be a nice fit with the tutu skirt.
