Ballet Sleeves: Puffs, Ruffles, and Bands Class is a six-hour class. It is a great introduction to making various basic sleeves to go with tutus and other ballet costumes. 

You will make several sets of ballet-style sleeves and will receive patterns and instructions for each of the following:

• Simple short puffs and/or ruffles
• A long sleeve, “Juliet-style” attached to the bodice with elastics at the shoulder
• Our beautiful “Aurora” sleeve, a drapey chiffon sleeve with a high/low ruffle at the elbow
•  A Peasant Costume Chemise, a crop top that can be attached or kept separate
• Embellished armbands
• La Bayadere “Kingdom of the Shades” sleeve drapes and how to attach to a headpiece or directly to the dancer’s bun
• Sleeve drapes attaching to the upper arm and bodice

Instruction will include:

• Various methods of embellishing sleeves
• The importance of making sleeves small so they do not overwhelm the dancer and/or give the dancer’s arms a garish look
• The importance of comfort
• Durability
• How to clean
• Appropriate fabrics

Want to make the sleeves in class for a specific dancer? Bring her bicep measurement and you can do it! How many sets of sleeves you finish will depend on what you can get done in the time allotted. You will have patterns and instructions for all the sleeves taught in class to take home with you so you can make many different sleeves for your costumes.

Class Length: 6 hours - choose either one, six-hour day, or two, three-hour evenings. See Your City’s Seminar Online Calendar to Plan Your Schedule:

SHIPPING COSTS

Tutu.Com offers free, domestic ground shipping to the 48 contiguous United States, up to $20, on orders costing $149 and up. This free option covers about 85% of orders. For very heavy orders that cost $149 or more, the first $20 of your shipping will be free. We will invoice you for any shipping amount over $20. Once shipping is paid, your order will go out. Our minimum domestic shipping charge for orders under $149 is $14.95 for Ground, and $37 for 1 to 3 day Express/Expedited, depending on where you are in the US. Free shipping option is not available for Express/Expedited shipping. Base International shipping charges are Canada: $42.00 USD. All other countries: $70.00 USD. If your base-rate/minimum shipping charge does not cover the cost to ship your order, we will bill additional shipping charges when your order is ready to ship.

We have several base rates for classical tutus that must be shipped in over-sized boxes. Actual costs can run between $40-$70 in the continental U.S., more in some places. We will always research what is the least expensive way to safely ship your items. We will also insure costumes for their full value. This will add to the cost, but not too much. All custom costumes are shipped with signature required when delivered. This is for your protection.

If you require a shipping cost estimate prior to placing your order, please email us at orders@tutu.com and we will be happy to estimate your shipping charges.

TRACKING & INSURANCE

Unless otherwise requested, orders shipped within the US, including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, and most US Territories and Military addresses, are sent via UPS Ground shipping (2-6 day) with tracking. You will receive an email with your package's tracking number so that you may track it. UPS provides insurance for the first $100 of an order. If your order cost is higher, we will automatically insure it for the total. There is an extra charge when we do this, but it is minimal.

PROCESSING TIME

We strive to ship in-stock items within two Business Days after we receive your order. (This does not include custom-made items, like tutus and other costumes, which require a lead time and are shipped when completed. Also, orders which include fabric-cuts or custom-dying may require an additional time, but we will always let you know how long it will take.) All orders are shipped FOB Charlotte, NC USA.

INTERNATIONAL

For destinations outside the United States, delivery times are dependent on your destination country and on your local postal and customs services. Customs delays are not the responsibility of Tutu.Com. Our shipping rates do not include any customs charges that may be imposed by your country's customs regulations.
