They're way too long and droopy and make the dancers' legs look short. they seem to be neither fish nor fowl - i.e. not a pancake tutu , but equally not a tulip or romantic one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinMM Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I love the Juliet costume.....my kind of thing ......and that looks like a pic from Dances at a Gathering ...love the girls ....or should I say ladies costumes from this ballet....long and floaty ( more or less hides everything) is my thing rather than short and sticky outy! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're so dreamy! The RB's Sugar Plum Fairy tutu is probably my all time favourite. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I forgot all about the tutu because I got so absorbed in watching the clip. This was one evil Odile! (And now I sound like Darcey Bussell on Strictly.) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
