Bloch Women's Belle Rehearsal Tutu Belle Rehearsal Tutu (Pack of 1)

Fit perfectly! The built in liner and waistband didn’t dig in but were firm and secure. Wore it for a few rehearsals and a performance without any issues.

Don't buy is a fraud

I bought this for my daughter's Pointe photos. She is 11 years old, about 5" tall and 100 pounds. The XS fits her perfect. This is a nice tutu. It's stiff and does not have to be tacked unless you prefer to.

So far this seems to be a great quality tutu! I will be entirely honest here: I am not a dancer by any means nor have I ever owned a French tutu to compare, but I am an avid cosplayer and felt that a quality tutu was needed one for a character I'll be portraying next spring. That being said, here is my reveiw so far: I have been in the market for a quality French tutu for a couple of months now, I know that there are plenty of tutu's out there that would have been much cheaper for costuming purposes, but I didn't want to cut corners. I needed a tutu that could hold its shape and look authentic so I took a chance on this one. So, packaging: the tutu came in a bag, or more specifically, three layers of thin but firm plastic bag, and was rolled into a burrito-type wrap in the innermost bag. Something worth noting: it was burrito wrapped inside out so that it would still stick out straight when worn. Out of bag condition: I had seen one review for this tutu mentioning extreme wrinkling, and yeah there are some wrinkles but only the amount that one should logically expect there to be, nothing (in my opinion) terribly damaging. I put the tutu on shortly after opening it to get a feel for what it's like which leads us to Fit: I ordered a small based on the standard amazon sizing chart and it fits as expected. I saw a response from the seller in the questions section on Amazon that said if you were over 120 pounds (125 or over they said), to get a medium, but I am pretty steady at 125-130lbs and the small fits just fine. I think that there are more factors than just weight that will determine how this garment fits so I'd suggest going by the Amazon chart. As for how it looks, it splays out like a French tutu should, right now it sticks up a bit but I'd assume that's from being wrapped inside out the way it was. as it fits now, it doesn't cover a whole lot, rear-wise but that's kind of what you'd expect I plan to incorporate this into a costume and will update once I have worked with it a bit more. I tried to make this a very detailed review as I know how much I rely on reviews when choosing what I purchase ' Best of luck
