DellaLo Milano leotards are designed with a close, professional ballet fit. Use your body measurements rather than your everyday clothing size. If your measurements fall between sizes, we generally recommend choosing the larger size for greater comfort and freedom of movement.
DellaLo Milano Women's Size Chart
Use your bust, waist, hips and girth measurements as a starting point to find your recommended DellaLo Milano size.
| Size | Bust cm | Waist cm | Hips cm | Girth cm |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 72 – 82 | 58 – 62 | 80 – 86 | 136 – 143 |
| S | 82 – 86 | 62 – 66 | 86 – 90 | 141 – 147 |
| M | 86 – 90 | 66 – 70 | 90 – 94 | 145 – 151 |
| L | 90 – 94 | 70 – 74 | 94 – 98 | 149 – 155 |
How to Measure for a DellaLo Milano Leotard
Measure over underwear or close-fitting clothing using a flexible tape measure. Stand naturally and keep the tape comfortably against the body without pulling it tight.
For DellaLo Milano leotards, girth is one of the most important measurements because it reflects the dancer's full torso length. If your measurements fall across different sizes, pay particular attention to girth. Dancers with a longer torso will often be more comfortable in the larger size.
DellaLo Milano is designed for a refined, close-to-the-body ballet silhouette. Lace styles can feel slightly firmer because lace generally offers less stretch than embroidered mesh or microfibre constructions. If you are between sizes, have a longer torso, or prefer a little more room through the body, choosing the larger size is usually the better starting point.

Bordeaux, Tailored in Lace
The DellaLo Milano Iris GL Bordeaux Ballet Leotard combines a sleeveless tank silhouette, tone-on-tone floral lace and a teardrop open back in a richly detailed Golden Label design. Its ruby-red body and embroidered waist create a refined Italian studio look with beautiful depth and definition.
DellaLo Milano Iris GL Bordeaux, Teardrop Back Ballet Leotard – Design & Performance
Iris begins with a satin-finish ruby Bordeaux body, overlaid at the bodice with tonal floral viscose lace. Keeping the lace within the same colour family creates dimension and texture without interrupting the dancer’s natural line.
A sleeveless tank neckline leaves the shoulders completely open, balancing the more detailed bodice with clean, unrestricted lines through the arms. Below, an embroidered tulle waistband introduces soft blush detailing and gently defines the waist.
From behind, the elongated teardrop opening frames the shoulder blades and spine. A discreet hook closure secures the upper neckline, allowing the back to remain open while helping the tank silhouette stay neatly positioned through turns, jumps and expressive port de bras.
The lightweight warp-knit body provides flexible stretch and close shape retention. Iris has no conventional front or back lining; coverage and gentle structure are strongest through the areas where floral lace and embroidered tulle overlap the main fabric.
Why Dancers Love the DellaLo Iris
Tonal Lace Dimension
Rich floral lace adds depth to the Bordeaux bodice while maintaining a polished, professional studio appearance.
Beautiful Waist Definition
The embroidered tulle band creates a graceful visual transition between the textured bodice and smooth lower body.
Secure Teardrop Back
A discreet hook closure keeps the neckline positioned while the elongated opening beautifully frames the upper back.
Clean Tank Freedom
The sleeveless cut leaves the shoulders and arms completely open for unrestricted port de bras and upper-body movement.
DellaLo Iris GL Bordeaux Leotard Wear Profile
The Dance World Wear Profile describes how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. This profile reflects the DellaLo Iris GL Bordeaux specifically; individual fit and feel may vary.
Studio Experience
Iris feels more tailored through the upper body than DellaLo’s lightest mesh designs. The floral lace adds gentle structure and visual security across the bodice, while the open tank shoulders keep movement completely free.
The hook-fastened teardrop back remains neatly positioned through class, and the rich Bordeaux colour provides stronger visual coverage than paler DellaLo colourways. It is a particularly elegant option when a dancer wants the freedom of a tank leotard with considerably more atelier detail.
Product Highlight
🌹 The Waist Detail Connects the Whole Design
The embroidered tulle waistband is not simply decorative. It creates a soft transition between the floral lace bodice and smooth lower body, gently defining the waist and giving Iris its beautifully balanced proportions.
Dance World Tip: The viscose lace feels slightly firmer than plain stretch mesh. Use girth as the deciding measurement and consider the larger size when between sizes, longer through the torso, fuller through the bust or broader through the shoulders.
