How to Draw a Tutu
Draw a tutu in 10 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the neckline.
Step 1: The neckline
Near the top, draw a shallow scoop like a wide smile. Start left of the middle and stop right.
Step 2: The top
From each end of the neckline, draw the top down, curving in at the waist, to a flat edge.
Step 3: The big tutu
From the top's bottom corners, draw the skirt out wide, nearly to the edge. Join the ends with 10 bumps.
Step 4: Folds
From the bottom of the top, draw 5 lines fanning down across the skirt, each stopping where 2 bumps meet.
Step 5: The bow
Low in the middle of the top, draw a bow, a round knot with a fat loop each side.
Step 6: The sash
From each side of the bow, draw a line straight across to the side of the top.
Step 7: Sparkles
Draw 4 small sparkle stars round the tutu, 2 on each side.
Step 8: Yellow sparkles
Go over your lines, then colour the 4 sparkles yellow.
Step 9: Pink skirt
Colour the whole skirt pink, bumps and all.
Step 10: Purple top and bow
Colour the top, the bow and the sash purple, and your tutu is ready to twirl!

Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a tutu, drawn by you.
