How to put it together

  1. Put on the white T-shirt or tank top.
  2. Pull the tutu over your hips and adjust so it sits evenly.
  3. Style your hair into a neat bun on top of your head.
  4. Add optional headband, gloves, tiara and pearls, then strike a pose.

Two variations

  • Snow Ballerina

    Wear a white tutu and add a silver headband for a frosty look.

  • Rainbow Dancer

    Choose a bright colored tutu and add matching ribbons in the bun.

Safety note

Wear non-slip shoes or go barefoot on grippy floors only, as smooth soles slip. Keep the skirt short enough to avoid tripping, and do not spin near stairs.
