The Tutu Skirt: How to Wear It

In the 90s, Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City was crowned as one of the icons of style, remaining as a fashion reference for eternity. Her fabulous outfits in the streets of New York became inspiration, but there was one garment that marked us, becoming the standard that would represent the character played by Sarah Jessica Parker, the tutu skirt.

Let's think about how Carrie was everything we could dream of, a young writer in search of love, accompanied by her friends and with a lot of style. By making references between her clothes and her love relationships, she gave us lessons in clothing, as well as in love that we have been learning, questioning and relearning. While the idea of love depends on one's perspective, it is not the same as it was twenty years ago, but the style cues have transcended, along with the premiere of And Just Like That, the spin-off show, Bradshaw's mythical tutu skirt is back and comes hand in hand with a delicate trend, the Balletcore.

The trend that encourages us to dress like a ballet dancer, it was predicted from the beginning of this year that the Balletcore stylistic movement, would invade the street style, taking as a hallmark, traditional garments used in classical dance, tutus, bodysuits, corsets, ballerina, etc.
