So, my daughter took her very first ballet class this week, and because she is only two, there’s a majorly loose dress code—any color leotard, ballet slippers, and tights are just fine. And I’m so relieved.
To keep my tiny dancer excited about ballet class, we stocked up on some more creative pieces with an artsy edge. And an added bonus? Many even have a charitable mission or great design story behind them. (Ah yes, the inner dance mom in me is proud.)
An adorable ballet layering piece by Atsuko et Akiko is their gray LOVE Burnout Tee (which pairs so well with the duo’s assortment of tea-stained tutus!). This one is available in twelve months through four years for $31.
Only eighty of the limited edition Lila Tutu Dress were created, and best of all, $100 from every tutu sold will go to the very special Bear Cottage charity , a children’s hospice. Designed in collaboration with Elyse Taylor, Australian model and Victoria’s Secret favorite, this exclusive piece has the star touch.
