The new trend is blowing out of TikTok and proving to be the ideal way to express hyper-femininity. Although ballet’s core trend comes from the aesthetics of ballet culture, you don’t necessarily need to be a dancer to follow this Hollywood-inspired trend. All you need is ballet-oriented textures, styles, fabrics, and structures to bring a ballet girl out of you.
We have seen many mood board aesthetic trends on Pinterest, such as the dark academia trend, preppy aesthetic, etc. This time we’re seeing a surge in the bale core direction that’s not appearing on Pinterest only but on other social media platforms. Even influencers are donning this trend like anything.
Dressing like ballet isn’t something that the world hasn’t seen before; if you go back to 2006 when Step Up hit the theaters, we got our breath taken away by the performance of Jenna Dewan, who personified a ballet girl immaculately. We didn’t think anyone else could have done a better job. Why did we think it was an exceptional performance? The fact that she wasn’t just an embodiment of a ballet dancer who did the trick, on other occasions, she was an equally good hip-hop dancer makes perfect sense when we say the new ballet core trend isn’t just for ballet dancers. You don’t need to be a dancer to be inspired by the movement.
But what does the Balletcore Aesthetic Trend include?
Since the focus is entirely on bringing the ballet aesthetic to life, we guess you can try anything from Tulle, Taffeta, and Bodysuit to leg warmers, ballet shoes, etc.
As seen in the TV show Euphoria, Sydney Sweeney wore a balletic blue cardigan in her portrayal of Cassie Howard.
