Custom Professional Ballet Tutus
Discover the Professional Tutus Collection by Dancewear by Patricia, featuring custom-made, made-to-measure ballet tutus created for dancers of all ages and levels. Our professional tutus are designed for ballet competitions, YAGP, classical variations, auditions, professional performances and stage productions.
Each tutu is individually made to order by our team of experienced professional seamstresses, using carefully selected fabrics, trims and decorations to create an elegant costume that enhances the dancer's line and presence on stage.
Professional Tutus Created with Ballet Expertise
Dancewear by Patricia was founded by Patricia Storelli, professional ballerina and Royal Academy of Dance certified teacher, whose knowledge of classical ballet and stage performance is at the heart of our collections.
With more than 30 years of experience in the ballet world, Patricia understands that a professional tutu must be more than beautiful. It should complement the dancer's proportions, respect the character and tradition of the ballet, and allow the dancer to perform with confidence and freedom of movement.
Patricia uses her experience as both a professional dancer and ballet teacher to help create original costumes for dancers preparing for competitions, classical variations and stage performances.
Our sophisticated fabrics and materials are sourced from France, England, Russia and Japan, allowing us to offer distinctive designs and beautiful combinations of color, texture and decoration.
Competition & YAGP Tutus
Our professional ballet tutus are an excellent choice for dancers preparing for Youth America Grand Prix (YAGP) and other international ballet competitions, as well as auditions, showcases and professional performances.
Dancewear by Patricia is proud to support YAGP participants with a 10% discount on professional tutus.
Over the years, Dancewear by Patricia has supplied dancers participating in prestigious international ballet competitions, including the Prix de Lausanne, Varna International Ballet Competition and Genée International Ballet Competition. Dancewear by Patricia has also proudly supported the Miami International Ballet Competition as an official sponsor.
Whether you are preparing Kitri, Aurora, Paquita, Medora, Gamzatti, Raymonda, Sugar Plum Fairy or another classical variation, choosing the right professional tutu can make an important difference in the dancer's overall stage presentation.
Personal Guidance from Patricia
At Dancewear by Patricia, you are never alone when choosing your costume.
Patricia personally offers guidance to dancers, parents and ballet teachers to help them select the most appropriate professional tutu for the specific ballet, role or classical variation being performed.
Drawing upon her extensive knowledge of the classical repertoire, Patricia can help you consider the traditional style of the costume, color, design and overall stage presentation.
You are welcome to contact Patricia by email or through our toll-free 1-800 number for personal assistance in finding the right tutu for your performance.
Made-to-Measure Professional Ballet Tutus
Our professional tutus are custom made and made to measure rather than mass-produced, ready-to-wear costumes.
Our classical professional tutus feature a traditional platter silhouette with 12 layers of fine net, creating a beautiful stage line while remaining lightweight. They are specially conceived to allow freedom of movement and partnering, particularly during lifts.
The bodices feature a double set of hooks and eyes to help achieve a secure fit, together with an adjustable string at chest level.
Selected designs are embellished with Swarovski crystals or other high-quality crystals, chosen to create beautiful sparkle under stage lighting.
Many of our professional tutus also feature distinctive ombré dyeing, creating beautifully graduated colors that are difficult to find in conventional ballet costumes.
Professional Tutus for Classical Ballet Variations
Our collection includes professional ballet tutus inspired by some of the world's most beloved classical ballets and variations.
Discover costumes for Don Quixote, The Sleeping Beauty, Paquita, Le Corsaire, The Nutcracker, Raymonda, La Bayadère, Esmeralda, Coppélia and many other works from the classical repertoire.
Many designs can be customized in different colors or decorative combinations, making it possible to create a costume that reflects both the traditional character of the role and the individuality of the dancer.
Ordering Your Custom Professional Tutu
Because our professional ballet tutus are individually made to order, please allow approximately 5–7 weeks for production after payment and the dancer's measurements have been received.
Highly decorated or specially customized costumes may require additional production time. During our busiest season, particularly from October through February, we strongly recommend ordering at least 2–3 months before your performance or competition whenever possible.
A rush-order service may be available for dancers who require their costumes sooner.
Since our tutus are custom made, please provide the following measurements, preferably in centimeters:
