If you decide to use tulle that is on a bolt, then you will need about five yards for a child’s size tutu, 10 yards for small or medium adult size, and about 20 yards for a large or extra-large adult size. You might need four or five spools of tulle for an adult’s small or medium tutu, and seven to eight spools for a large or extra-large. It all depends on the size of the person wearing the tutu. Separate all the layers of your tutu using your hands to fluff it up, making it look as full as you want. Add optional decorations, like rhinestones, bows, faux flowers, ribbons, or whatever your heart desires. When it’s all pushed together, slide your elastic through the casing, making sure to keep both sides of the elastic outside the casing. We don’t want either or both ends to get lost inside the tutu. For this fun costume idea, just pair a pink tutu with pink clothing. You will need to add a unicorn horn on top of your head. You can make your own unicorn horn with a headband and cardboard, or you can use a silver birthday party hat. You can also buy an inexpensive one here.
Locate a pair of mouse ears for this cute costume. You can use face paint to make your face look like a mouse and then dress in faded and torn overalls. Don’t forget to add the finishing touch – a large cookie, which can be made from cardboard. You will also need some elastic for the waistband (3/4 inch to 1inch in width), some thread (matching in color to your tulle most likely), and, of course, a sewing machine. To create this costume, you must locate a long-sleeved shirt and a long skirt. You will need a white apron and a short-sleeved shirt to place over your other clothing. Make sure you use a scarf to cover your head, and you will need to carry a cauldron with you. You can try using a safety pin to secure each end in place, so that when you are pulling one end through, the other one doesn’t follow it.Leggings are one of the most disputed items of clothing for older women. Some of us over 50 swear by our leggings, while others are appalled by the fact that older women still wear leggings. I say, to each her own. Because leggings don’t vary much in styling, the thing that differentiates them the most is the fabric. They are generally made of a 4-way stretch knit fabric and contain some sort of stretch agent, like spandex, lycra, or elastane.
Now it’s time to work with your elastic. Wrap the elastic band around your waist (or the waist of the person the skirt will be for) at the place you want the tutu to sit. There is no right or wrong answer to wearing leggings after 50. I think that if you feel comfortable wearing leggings, then by all means wear them.
