I might suggest you run the tape measure around the widest part of your daughters waist and take a measure from there.

Once you have worked out what length your daughters waist is twice as many that measurement and buy your tulle accordingly. That way you'll double up the material and give the tutu a light however full body. You'll also want some elastic that is around an inch or so less than the length of your daughters waist.

If you tie the elastic then I would suggest you also tie some tulle over the join to hide it from view and of course place it within the back. You may also add a pleasant bow to completely mask the knot.

There are lots of accessories that you also think about when you make a tutu. Things such as fairy wings, wands, hair pieces and other items to add a little flair and bling to your tutu. - 30225
