Classical Ballet Tutus
& Dance Costume
Emerald Tutu
A made-to-measure classical ballet tutu designed as a competition costume. The twelve layered skirt is supported by a hoop to give a flattering "pancake" effect and to withstand extremes of choreography. It is overlaid with pleated lace. Shown in emerald green, the silk bodice is elaborately decorated with suitably eye-catching gold detailing, highlighted with sequins and light-reflecting stones.

As with all Rossetti tutus, this costume can be made to your specifications; fabric, decoration and colour can be varied (please enquire).
All items are constructed to professional performance standards as used by eg. English National Ballet and Scottish Ballet. A tutu with this amount of decoration is around £690 to make with a machine-pleated topskirt as shown; £650 for a flat lace overlay on the skirt; £600 with an undecorated skirt.
