Balletcore is making its way through social media, and you shouldn’t miss this bandwagon! Here are the best pretty balletcore outfits that you can incorporate into your own life.

It’s time for the moody grunge aesthetics to move aside and to make way for spring’s latest emerging trend: balletcore.

One of our favorite parts of social media is its ability to whip up new fashion aesthetic subgenres, and drive them up to the top trends in just a matter of days or weeks. For this upcoming spring season, balletcore is predicted to emerge as one of the leading aesthetics.

Balletcore thrives on softness, femininity, and grace – very much like the movement of actual ballerina dancers. It’s a gentle fashion aesthetic that is quite similar to its cousins, namely cottagecore and fairycore.

This newest trend embodies ballet elements like tutus, tulle skirts, ballerina flats, wrap sweaters, leotards, tights, and mini skirts. Gentle pastel hues like light pink, baby blue, cream, white, and lilac are the main colors for this aesthetic. However, black is also acceptable if you want to go for a darker, Black Swan-esque look.

As for fabrics, tulle and mesh are very much preferred, as well as satin, lace, and cashmere. As you can see, the aesthetic is super cozy and feminine!

A more toned down, casual part of this aesthetic are light hoodies, leggings, camisoles, and tight hair buns. Just try to imagine a ballerina on her way to rehearsal, and there you have it!

Overall, balletcore is an enchanting aesthetic that is light and easy on the eyes, and can actually be whimsical too – seriously, have you seen the way tulle skirts gracefully flow when hit by sunlight?

Spring is upon us – and we totally recommend trying out this gorgeous, ultra-feminine aesthetic for this season. You don’t need to be a dancer to embrace this look by any means!
