How to Costume Your Dance Performance Quickly Using Tutu Skirts

Tutus skirts offer opportunities to design fantastic costumes for dance performances, not just for ballet. Tutu skirts are sold in several lengths which make them even more convenient to costume planning. These are available in single and multi-layers in lengths just above the knee to ankle-length. They provide a basic design for ballet, modern dance,jazz dance in fact any dance routines. The first step to costuming your dance performance quickly using tutu skirts is to relate it to the choreography and music. For a romantic ballet, like Coppelia for example, only the addition of a delicate pastel leotard is required. This method also applies to modern dance routines where simple black leotards, bare legs and feet and an ankle-length tutu skirt may complete the costume design.

A simple white costume with an over-the-knee length tutu skirt will become an ethereal vision with the proper stage lighting. The same is true of a blue tutu skirt for a jazz/ballet performance of for example Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. For jazz routines, a shorter length tutu skirt makes a wonderful accompaniment for choreography that accents a certain era in dance or a specific style of jazz dance such as Fosse choreography. Costume a choreographed dance routine for ballet by using multiple colors of tutu skirts instead of a single color for each dancer's costume. This is an opportunity for the choreographer to design a visual effect that makes dance performances appear more complex.

Tutu skirts in vivid colors like cerise, flo lime or orange make dance performances more dramatic and the visual effect stunning for jazz routines that need to make a color statement enhanced with lighting and choreography. Use a leotard as the base in a contrasting color. Then, add a few accessories or props such as neon leg warmers or wrist bands to make the dance performance stand out. It's simple to accessorize a tutu skirt. For jazz routines, add a row of long silk fringe. Use a simple basting stitch to attach the fringe. This can also be done with metallic hula skirts. These are easier to attach if the hula skirt has a tie-on waistband or a waistband pre-sewn to the metallic fringe. "Winterize" a tutu skirt by sewing fur boas to the waistband and at the hemline. This looks great for those dance performances with a winter or Christmas theme.

One dazzling effect is to sew sequin bands to the waist and hemline. Stage lighting for your dance performances affects the visual images the tutu skirt creates. Think about the lighting colors you will use to either contrast or complement the tutu skirt outfits. The music you choose has a powerful effect too. Match your choice of tutu skirt outfit to the mood of the lighting and music and you can't go wrong and are sure to create a memorable dance performance for dancers and audience alike.
