missmeg193 Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Hi everyone... For my Spring Performance, I'm doing the Jumping Girl variation from Paquita. My teacher has given me the option of a black or white tutu, but I'm not sure which one to get. I'd prefer to get black, but my teacher says that it might not show up well against the dark background. Does anyone have any tips? Or ideas of how to make a black tutu stand out against a dark background? Thanks =] -missmeg193 Quote Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted January 17, 2008 Administrators Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 A white tutu is more practical, as it can be decorated in different ways for different roles. A black tutu is more limiting, and not suitable for as many things. Quote Link to comment
missmeg193 Posted January 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Thank you, Ms. Leigh. I agree that white tutus are more practical. However, I've also heard that black is more slimming than white. Is this true, or is that just a false rumor? Thanks =] -missmeg193 Quote Link to comment
Administrators Victoria Leigh Posted January 17, 2008 Administrators Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Well, if it was a unitard, it might make a difference, but I don't think so in a tutu. I have never seen Paquita done in black. Red, yes, and white yes, but black? Quote Link to comment
TuTuPrincess Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 I've seen black with a lot of red but not black or mostly black. Quote Link to comment
