In the 15th and 16th centuries, the early ballet costumes admired luxury. In the 17th century, the actor wears a “bristle” skirt with metal wire hoop and the “Rounie” whale skirt worn by the actress is all heavy. In order to fully demonstrate the ballet's dance and technique, historically, ballet clothing has undergone several innovations and gradually improved it. The reform of dance shoes and dance skirts is more important. 1 ballet shoes: early 18th century, M. Kamargo invented the non-heeled shoes made of soft materials. In 1790, a special pad was added to the toe of the non-heeled shoes to facilitate the dancers to use the toe dance. 2 Ballet skirt: 1832, M. Taglion started using E. Lamy designed a strapless dress for her, called "romantic ballet skirt." This dance skirt has a close-fitting upper body, a bell-shaped pleated skirt with a knee over it, a skirt made of several layers of white tulle, and light red tights that make it easy for the actor to show big jumps and kicks. In 1880, the ballet skirts were shortened and the thighs were exposed. The tutu was called as a ballet skirt. Its skirt is made up of 4 to 5 layers of silk pleats and is attached to a correspondingly sized vest. Since the 20th century, modern ballet has used more artistic life clothes.
