These long tutus are the perfect fashion state that never goes out of style. My little girl loves it when she wears her long tulle skirts and she says “I’m a beautiful princess”.
There are two versions you can do your own long tutu skirt: Slim or Puffy. I made the two version and loved them both!
The slim skirt is very translucent as there is only two layers of tulle and keep it mind that there is not much coverage but it’s perfect on top of leggings, leotards and matching tights.
The puffy skirt has four layers of tulle (double the tulle needed)
and it has more coverage. Its perfect for Easter, photo shoot, special occasions or just because.
The style of this DIY skirt is more like an apron that ties on the back with ribbon.
Supplies:
5 yards of tulle for a slim skirt
or 10 yrds of tulle for more coverage and puffy skirt
Sewing Machine, thread scissors
2 inch elastic
15 or 2 inch satin ribbon (two strips measuring 19 inches)
Directions: Usually the fabric stores cut the tulle folded in half. They measure about 30 inches in length when folded. My girl is 4 years old (42 inches) and the tulle folded in half was perfect for her size. Measure the tulle length against your daughter height.
Pin the tulle edges to the elastic
Sew two strips of ribbon ( About 19 inches long) to the back of the skirt on both sides.
