What does Swan Lake mean in Dress to Impress?

Swan Lake is one of the most well-known ballets of all time and is essentially an elegant, formal, and artistic dance show focused on the ballet dance form. In Dress to Impress, your goal is to dress like you would be performing in this show or otherwise create a look that fits the overarching ballet theme.

For this theme, you want to wear tutus, ballet shoes, masks, feathers, and any other such items you can find that fit the graceful and delicate ballet style. The colors white and black and generally the most useful for this theme. You can also vary from this palette slightly, though, with other colors like light pink, dark red to pair with black, and muted tans. If you want to use patterns, make sure you choose fairly simple ones since ballerinas usually don’t wear complex patterns.

For your hair, it’s best to use some kind of bun hairstyle. Ballerinas typically pull their hair back, so consider choosing a style that has most of your hair pulled up and out of the way. As it is for all Dress to Impress themes, layering is key for Swan Lake and is the only way to ensure you create something spectacular.

If you can rally another player, a great way to tackle this challenge is creating duo contrasting ballerina looks.

Even if your looks are simple, walking the runway together with drastically opposing designs is sure to help you stand out.

A super unique way to approach this challenge is by taking a darker ballerina approach, like this design inspired by Black Swan starring Natalie Portman. Ballerinas are usually dressed in super light colors, but this is a fun way to stay on the theme while taking a different approach.

This player made a very elegant angel ballerina look that fits the Swan Lake theme perfectly. You can easily incorporate details like angel or fairy wings to give your outfit some extra flair and truly elevate your design to the next level.

Barbie of Swan Lake is a classic film inspired by the Swan Lake ballet, so it’s a unique way to create a special look for this challenge. This player went for a super glam and regal Barbie look, but you can also easily adapt this outfit to make it more classic ballerina if you wish to do so.

You can’t go wrong with a classic ballerina design for this challenge. If you’re having trouble getting started, equip a tutu and just start painting items with it to create a full look. As long as you end up looking like a ballerina, you’re sure to get a decent number of votes.
