Ballet accessories include tutus, which are five-letter garments typically made of tulle or other light fabrics. Tutus are worn by female dancers in classical ballet performances and are designed to give the illusion of a floating skirt. They are often decorated with ribbons, sequins, and other embellishments. Other ballet accessories include pointe shoes, which are specially designed shoes that enable dancers to stand on the tips of their toes, and tights, which provide support and warmth for the dancer's legs.
