BALLET:

Costumes:

Everyone needs:

Ballet Shoes

Ballet Tights

Pink Leotard for juniors up to and including Grade 1.

Black Leotard for seniors from and including Grade 2 up.

I make, keep and re-use the costumes, so I am going to be making skirts etc for these dances (let me know if you’d like to help with cutting/sewing!). I will gussie-up the outfits with pretty $2-shop hairclips and ribbons as well. Costume hire is $20, unless you have helped with sewing.

Hair:

Hair in a bun with fringe back off face.

Hair help: contact qualified hairdressers Michelle 411 7151 or Karina 412 5255.

Hair:

In a ponytail with fringe back off face.

Hair help: contact qualified hairdressers Michelle 411 7151 or Karina 412 5255.

MAKEUP:

This should be natural and wholesome-looking - no drag queen looks please! No need for foundation/powder, flicked eyeliner, blue eyeshadow, heavy blusher or dark lips - just be sweetly pretty-looking.

Eyebrows: unless your dancer’s eyebrows are very dark, please darken them with pencil.

Eyes: a neutral brownish shadow on the lid. Emphasise the upper lash line: use mascara, eyeliner pencil or wet-brush-applied dark eyeshadow - whatever is easiest.

Blush: on the apples of the cheeks - no racing stripes.

Lips: a little shine. Clear or natural-coloured gloss or balm.

(Teens may wear slightly heavier makeup.)
