Hi, I'm Claudia Folts, Founder and Creative director of Tutu.com. If you've ever dreamed of creating something beautiful for the stage or turning your passion for costume making into a career, you're in the right place.
You know, my costuming journey began as a professional ballet dancer. And I know the frustration of wearing costumes that don't fit well or are uncomfortable. The core truth that has guided tutu.com from the very beginning is that true beauty on stage starts with what is created behind the scenes. And that's why I created tutu.com in 1994.
I've been in your shoes searching for guidance and the right supplies. And I'm here to share what I've learned. Here at Tutu.com, we believe that every dancer deserves a costume that makes them feel beautiful and confident. You know, beauty is never easy. It's a blend of the imperfect, the unexpected, and the magic that happens when fabric is transformed into something beautiful that moves with the dancer's body
