Purple Tutu

Ah, the tutu. A staple of ballet, sexy Halloween costumes, Impressionist paintings and gay pride parades, nothing straddles the line between the fine arts and gettin’ freaky quite like the tutu. But hey, who said artistes didn’t like to get freaky, anyway? Why do you think Degas was hanging around all those ballerinas? Son, in the 1800s, backstage at the ballet wasthe gay pride parade. (Je rigole, I kid, Degas was famously conservative. Settle down, Degas fanboys.)

Our purple tutu is a classical cut, meaning it’s more horizontal than bell-shaped, with 5 layers of frill made of 100 percent polyester. Some outfit recommendations for this tutu from our HalloweenCostumes.com fashion experts: neon leotard, leggings, leg-warmers and headband; purple ballet outfit; zebra-print cowboy hat, cowboy boots, thong, and pool floaty toy; one-eyed, one-horned flying purple people-eater who’s exploring its feminine side; nothing else at all. All great options!
