Use your body measurements rather than your everyday clothing size. Mara Dancewear uses different sizing across leotards, ballet skirts and warm-up pants, so always check the chart for the garment you are choosing. If your measurements fall between sizes, consider the measurement most important for that garment and your preferred fit.
Mara Dancewear Leotard Size Chart
Use your chest, waist, hips and girth measurements to find your recommended Mara Dancewear leotard size.
| Measurement | XXS | XS | S | M | L | XL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chest | 78–82 cm 30"–32" | 82–86 cm 32"–34" | 86–90 cm 34"–36" | 90–94 cm 36"–38" | 94–98 cm 38"–40" | 98–102 cm 40"–42" |
| Waist | 58–62 cm 22"–23" | 62–66 cm 24"–25" | 66–70 cm 26"–27" | 70–74 cm 28"–29" | 74–78 cm 30"–31" | 78–82 cm 32"–33" |
| Hips | 84–88 cm 32"–34" | 88–92 cm 34"–36" | 92–96 cm 36"–38" | 96–100 cm 38"–40" | 100–104 cm 40"–42" | 104–108 cm 42"–44" |
| Girth | 125–132 cm 49"–52" | 132–139 cm 52"–55" | 139–146 cm 55"–58" | 146–153 cm 58"–61" | 153–160 cm 61"–64" | 167–174 cm 64"–67" |
For Mara leotards, girth is one of the most useful 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 may be more comfortable in the larger size.

How to Measure for Mara Dancewear
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.
Girth
Key MeasurementUsing a flexible tape measure, start at the centre of one shoulder. Bring the tape down the front of the torso, through the crotch and back up the body to the same shoulder, creating one complete loop.
Keep the tape comfortably close to the body without pulling it tight. The dancer should stand naturally while being measured.
Chest
Measure around the fullest part of the chest, keeping the tape straight and level around the body. Keep the tape comfortably against the body without compressing it.
Waist
Measure around the natural waist, usually the narrowest part of the torso. Keep the tape level and do not pull it too tightly.
Hips
Measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat while standing naturally. Keep the tape level all the way around the body.
Height
Stand straight without shoes, with feet flat on the floor, and measure from the floor to the top of the head.
Mara Dancewear uses different size structures depending on the garment. For leotards, compare chest, waist, hips and especially girth. For skirts, waist and hips are the most useful measurements. For warm-up pants, use waist and hips together with Mara's height guidance to choose between XS/S and M/L.

A Floral for Dancers Who Don't Usually Wear Florals
Moody, feminine and beautifully understated, Mara Dancewear Aura in Grey Floral brings a softer side to the brand's signature zip-front silhouette. The tonal floral print reveals itself gradually across the smoky grey base, giving Aura something special without losing the clean, professional feel that makes it such a strong studio leotard.
Mara Dancewear Aura Grey Floral Ballet Leotard - Design & Style
Aura has already proved how well its clean silhouette carries colour, but Grey Floral brings something completely different to the collection: softness without sweetness.
The high neckline gives the floral pattern a beautifully structured canvas, while the functional front zip draws a clean vertical line through the print. Wear it higher for Aura's sharper signature silhouette or open it slightly to reveal more of the neck and collarbones, instantly making the look softer and more relaxed.
Mara Dancewear's signature ribbed performance fabric sits closely against the body with supportive compression, excellent four-way stretch and strong shape recovery. Here, the fine ribbing works particularly well with the tonal floral pattern, adding another layer of texture without making the surface feel busy. The flattering high-cut leg keeps the line elongated, while the open back balances the stronger front and beautifully reveals the shoulders.
Inside, Aura is fully lined for secure coverage and confidence. The lining is exceptionally soft - one of the details we continue to love most about Mara Dancewear. Against the supportive ribbed exterior, it gives Grey Floral that familiar Aura combination of structure, security and genuinely lovely comfort against the skin.

Studio Experience
What we like most about Grey Floral is how quietly the print behaves in the studio. From a distance it reads almost like a textured smoky grey; closer up, the layered flowers become much more noticeable. In movement, that tonal pattern gives Aura depth without distracting from the dancer's line.
Underneath the print, you still get everything that makes Aura such a useful training leotard: supportive compression, four-way stretch, an adjustable neckline and exceptionally soft lining. It looks special, but it doesn't need to be saved for a special day.
Dance World Notes
- A floral for the print-shy. The tonal grey palette keeps the pattern sophisticated and subtle - you notice the overall silhouette first and the flowers second.
- Look closer and it gets better. Layered florals move through different shades of charcoal and soft grey, giving the fabric much more depth than a conventional flat print.
- The zip gives the print structure. That clean vertical line through the centre stops the floral from becoming overly romantic and keeps Aura feeling modern.
- Coverage is excellent. The deeper tonal print, substantial performance fabric and full lining make Grey Floral a particularly reassuring printed option for studio wear.
- It bridges two Mara Dancewear moods beautifully. There's the femininity of the floral on one side and Aura's strong, contemporary silhouette on the other — neither one takes over.
Dance World Verdict
🩶 Unexpected Studio Favourite
Grey Floral is exactly the kind of print we like in dancewear: interesting up close, beautifully understated from a distance and still completely focused on the dancer. It softens Aura's athletic lines without losing their strength, making this an unusually easy print to wear again and again.
Mara Dancewear Aura Grey Floral Colour Story
Think floral, but through a smoky grey filter.
Rather than relying on contrasting colours, Grey Floral builds its pattern through layers of charcoal, slate and softer grey tones. The flowers appear almost like shadows across the fabric, creating a slightly romantic mood without the sweetness we usually associate with floral dancewear.
That restrained palette also makes Grey Floral surprisingly versatile. Traditional pink ballet tights bring out its softer side, while black creates a darker, more contemporary look. Soft grey, charcoal and cool neutral warm-ups continue the tonal story beautifully without competing with the print.
And unlike White Marble, which feels light, artistic and almost painterly, Grey Floral feels moodier and more feminine, a statement print that doesn't need to shout.
