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 Depth, Couture Contrast
The DellaLo Milano Diana DI Bordeaux is an embroidered ballet leotard with a ruby-bordeaux body, nude tulle, black floral detailing, three-quarter sleeves and a dramatic V-shaped open back. Handcrafted in Milan, this popular Icons Collection design creates a poised professional silhouette with a colour combination that feels both rich and beautifully distinctive.
DellaLo Milano Diana DI Bordeaux, Embroidered Ballet Leotard – Design & Performance
Diana’s deep ruby-bordeaux body is framed by nude stretch tulle embroidered with contrasting black floral motifs. The three-layered colour effect creates depth without relying on heavy decoration: Bordeaux brings warmth, the tulle introduces lightness and the black embroidery gives the upper body precise definition.
A high boat neckline follows the collarbones and creates a composed frame across the shoulders. Beneath the sheer embroidered bodice, a sweetheart-shaped insert adds gentle coverage and visual shaping while allowing the floral pattern to remain the focus.
The embroidered three-quarter sleeves extend the arm line while remaining lightweight and flexible through port de bras. From behind, the neckline falls into a deep V-shaped opening that reveals the shoulder blades and gives the back a particularly long, sculpted appearance.
Diana has no conventional front or back lining, preserving the exceptionally light and breathable quality dancers associate with DellaLo. Coverage is strongest through the opaque Bordeaux body and sweetheart insert, becoming intentionally lighter through the nude tulle, sheer sleeves and open back.
Why Dancers Love the DellaLo Diana
Popular Diana Silhouette
The high front, shaped bodice and deep V-back create one of DellaLo’s most beautifully balanced designs.
Rich Three-Tone Colour
Ruby Bordeaux, nude tulle and black embroidery combine warmth, lightness and graphic definition.
Sheer ¾ Sleeves
Flexible embroidered tulle elongates the arms without adding the weight of a fully covered sleeve.
Dramatic V-Back
The deep angular opening highlights the spine, shoulder blades and movement through the upper body.
DellaLo Diana DI Bordeaux Leotard Wear Profile
The Dance World Wear Profile describes how this particular leotard fits, feels and performs in the studio. Individual fit and coverage may vary depending on body shape and preferred sizing.
Studio Experience
Diana feels much lighter in motion than its three-quarter sleeves and intricate detailing might suggest. The embroidered tulle flexes naturally through the shoulders, while the high boat neckline creates a secure, composed front that allows dancers to concentrate on movement.
The contrast between the covered neckline and deep V-back is particularly effective at the barre. From the front, Diana looks polished and controlled; from behind, the open line reveals considerably more expression. The deep Bordeaux body also provides reassuring visual coverage without losing DellaLo’s signature light feel.
Product Highlight
🍷 One of Diana’s Strongest Colour Stories
The nude tulle creates an illusion-style bridge between the dancer and the garment, allowing the black embroidery to appear almost suspended above the ruby-bordeaux body. It is a deep, memorable combination that feels dramatic without becoming costume-like, one of the reasons this popular Diana design works so well for both professional class and performance.
Dance World Tip: Diana has a close Italian fit through the torso and upper body. Check the girth carefully and consider sizing up if you are between sizes or have a longer torso, fuller bust or broader shoulders.
