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.

Black, Reworked in Tulle
The DellaLo Milano Tacita DI Nero Ballet Leotard takes the versatility of black and gives it a distinctly Milanese identity. Floral embroidery, semi-sheer tulle and precise open-back detailing create depth without introducing another colour.
From the front, its rounded neckline and tonal three-quarter sleeves feel beautifully composed. From behind, a V-shaped back and twin teardrop openings transform the classical black leotard into something much more architectural.
DellaLo Milano Tacita DI Nero, Long Sleeve Ballet Leotard – Design & Performance
Tacita combines a smooth black warp-knit body with semi-sheer embroidered stretch tulle across the upper bodice and sleeves. The monochromatic palette allows light, transparency and floral texture to create the contrast.
A softly rounded neckline provides a clean classical frame, while the three-quarter sleeves visually lengthen the arms. Behind, twin teardrop openings sit within the V-shaped back, creating an intricate composition that draws attention to the spine and shoulder blades.
Tacita has no conventional front or back lining. Its doubled and overlaid design areas provide targeted coverage, but the construction remains intentionally light, breathable and close to the skin.
Why Dancers Love the DellaLo Tacita
Black with Dimension
Smooth fabric, semi-sheer tulle and tonal embroidery give classic black depth without relying on contrasting colour.
Embroidered ¾ Sleeves
Light stretch-tulle sleeves extend the arm line while remaining airy, flexible and expressive in motion.
Architectural Open Back
A V-shaped neckline and twin teardrop openings create a distinctive geometric frame around the dancer’s back.
Featherlight Black
The unlined construction delivers the polished appearance of a detailed leotard without a dense or heavily layered feel.
DellaLo Milano Tacita Leotard Wear Profile
The Dance World Wear Profile highlights how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. This profile reflects the DellaLo Milano Tacita DI Nero specifically; individual fit and feel may vary.
Studio Experience
Tacita Nero feels refined enough for auditions and performance but remains remarkably light for regular studio use. The embroidered tulle follows the arms through port de bras, while the rounded neckline keeps the front silhouette calm and professionally composed.
Black makes the unlined body more visually forgiving than a pale DellaLo colourway, although the leotard still prioritises breathability and delicacy over substantial coverage or bust support.
Product Highlight
✦ Black Lets the Construction Speak
Without contrasting colours competing for attention, every line of Tacita becomes clearer. The embroidered sleeves bring soft floral texture, while the twin teardrop openings give the back a precise, almost jewellery-like finish. It is recognisably black balletwear, but far from a studio basic.
Dance World Tip
Choose Tacita primarily by girth and shoulder fit, sizing up if you are between sizes or longer through the torso. The V-shaped back and teardrop openings may reveal conventional bra straps, so seamless low-back foundations will give the cleanest finish.
