The first skirt-tutu was created in the distant 1839 for the well-known Italian ballerina, the performer of the main part in the ballet "Sylphide", the notorious Maria Taglioni. Lush multi-layer skirt has been a great success and has since become an integral part of ballet costumes. Modern dancers perform in ballet skirts with special hoops as a rigid frame or in so-called "shochinki", which are lush skirts-tutu in the form of a bell. It was the "Shopenka" that became the inspiration for modern designers. There were amazing collections of skirt packs for girls not related to the ballet in a wide variety of interpretations for every taste.
