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.

Romantic Detail, Contemporary Lines
DellaLo Milano Minerva GL Turandot brings a deeper, more dramatic mood to the delicacy of embroidered balletwear. Rich plum, sheer nude tulle and luminous ivory flowers create an elegant palette with warmth, depth and unmistakable Italian character.
DellaLo Milano Minerva GL Turandot Embroidered Ballet Leotard – Design & Performance
Minerva begins with a satin-finish plum body, complemented by lightweight nude tulle embroidered with delicate ivory floral motifs. The deeper main colour gives the leotard visual strength, while the pale embroidery softly illuminates the neckline, shoulders and arms.
A refined boat neckline creates a clean horizontal line across the collarbones. Three-quarter-length embroidered sleeves extend that line through the arms, offering noticeably more visual coverage than a cap sleeve while remaining sheer and movement-focused.
From behind, the deep square neckline introduces a contemporary architectural detail. Its clean corners contrast beautifully with the softness of the floral embroidery, framing the upper back without unnecessary straps or decorative interruptions.
The lightweight stretch body sits closely against the dancer and moves naturally through class and rehearsal. Minerva has no conventional front or back lining, preserving DellaLo’s exceptionally light, breathable feel; support comes from the close stretch construction rather than an internal bra or bust panel.
Why Dancers Love the DellaLo Minerva
Plum with Dimension
Deep plum, nude tulle and ivory embroidery create richness without making the leotard appear dark or heavy.
Elegant Sleeve Coverage
Sheer three-quarter sleeves beautifully extend the line of the arms while keeping the overall construction light.
Contemporary Square Back
The clean open-back shape brings modern structure to Minerva’s otherwise soft and romantic design.
Light Couture Feeling
Intricate Golden Label embroidery creates visual impact without sacrificing the breathable feel dancers love about DellaLo.
DellaLo Minerva GL Turandot Leotard Wear Profile
The Dance World Wear Profile describes how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. This profile reflects the DellaLo Minerva GL Turandot specifically; individual fit and feel may vary.
Studio Experience
Minerva creates a beautifully finished studio look from the moment it is put on. The boat neckline opens the collarbones, while the embroidered three-quarter sleeves make the arms appear longer and bring definition to every port de bras.
Despite its elaborate appearance, the leotard remains remarkably light. The darker plum body offers more visual reassurance than very pale DellaLo colourways, while the sheer sleeves and open square back prevent the additional coverage from feeling enclosed.
Product Highlight
🍇 A Dark Colour with a Softer Side
Turandot has the depth and versatility dancers often seek in black, but with considerably more warmth. Nude tulle and ivory embroidery soften the plum body, allowing the colour to feel romantic and luminous rather than heavy.
Dance World Tip: Pay particular attention to girth and upper-body fit. The embroidered three-quarter sleeves feel more present than an open camisole or cap-sleeve style, so dancers between sizes, longer through the torso or broader through the shoulders may prefer the larger size.
