Encore, encore! Balletcore fashion is having a resurgence in the public zeitgeist, and we are here for it. Read on to find out how you can try the trend for yourself!
First things first: What is “balletcore,” anyway?
It’s simple: The look is simply taking the aesthetic concepts from the dance style of ballet and incorporating them into your everyday outfits.
Tutus, tulle, satin, silk ribbons, tights, ballet flat shoes, slicked-back bun hairstyles, leotards, or bodysuits, and more – these are the ingredients of a balletcore look.

In other words, take everything from the coquette style trend and just lean into the dancerly side of things.
This latest surge in ballet has been fueled by the pop music community’s recent enthusiasm for the aesthetic.
Singers like Olivia Rodrigo, RosalÃa, Adéla, and more have taken a pointer from the dance form for their recent eras.
Liv notably featured ballet dancers in the music video for stupid song, the hit from her recent album, you seem pretty sad for a girl so in love.
Spanish singer RosalÃa’s current tour sees her performing in pointe shoes for the opening number.
Another artist, up-and-comer Adéla, is a former ballerina who opened for Demi Lovato’s latest tour. She was also previously considered for the band Katseye. Because of her past with the dance style, Adéla has woven ballet into her stage choreography.
Now, companies like Tory Burch, Converse, and Birkenstock are incorporating ballet elements into their footwear offerings. This includes the viral summer hit that is “Sneakerinas” – AKA sneaker ballet flats.
Are more creative takes on the style coming soon? We sure hope so!
