We borrowed old tutus from some company. They were for Swan Lake, but they were so worn out that they weren't white at all. Yellow. Not really pretty looking. I was to decorate them to use for Paquita.
The director wanted to have different colors for a principal, soloists, demi soloist, and corps. Instead of decorating tired dirty tutus, I decided to slip cover them. I literally made the bodice and over skirt slip cover to sewn on the tutus. That way I was able to give them vibrant colors.
To make 20 slip covers were big work, especially I had to sew them in by hand so they can be easily removed after the show.
