Ballet Rosa dancewear is designed for a close, professional ballet fit. Use your actual body measurements rather than everyday clothing size. For leotards and unitards, girth is particularly important because it reflects the full length of the torso. If you are between sizes or have a longer torso, the larger size is often the more comfortable starting point.

For Ballet Rosa leotards, girth is the most useful measurement when sizes disagree. A dancer can have a small bust and waist but still need the next size because of torso length. If the girth is close to the upper limit, or the dancer has a longer torso, sizing up usually gives a more comfortable result without losing the close ballet silhouette.
How to Measure for Ballet Rosa 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 to the same shoulder, creating one complete loop.
Keep the tape comfortably close to the body without pulling it tight. For Ballet Rosa leotards, girth is especially important when deciding between two sizes.
Bust / Chest
Measure around the fullest part of the bust or chest, keeping the tape straight and level around the body and comfortably close 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
Stand with the feet together and measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat. Keep the tape straight and level 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.
Ballet Rosa does not use height directly in this women and girls garment chart, but it is useful when considering overall body proportion and whether a longer-torso fit may be needed.
Ballet Rosa adult sizes correspond approximately to 36 = XS/Petite, 38 = Small, 40 = Medium, 42 = Large and 44 = XL. The garments are intended to fit closely, but torso length is particularly important in leotards. If the dancer has a longer torso or the girth sits near the top of a size range, consider the next size up. Ballet Rosa also notes that a Long Torso adjustment of approximately 2 cm / 1" can sometimes be appropriate.

Description
Where Geometry Becomes Movement
The Ballet Rosa Fontea leotard reimagines the sleeved ballet silhouette through sharp mesh geometry and unexpected asymmetry. A wide boat neckline and V-shaped front insert create a modern frame, while the dramatic open back shifts the design beautifully off balance.
Ballet Rosa Fontea Three-Quarter Sleeve Leotard – Design & Performance
Fontea begins with a wide boat neckline layered over a sharp V-shaped mesh insert. The contrast between transparent mesh and the opaque microfiber bodice creates a sculpted, architectural front that feels clean, confident and distinctly contemporary.
Sheer three-quarter sleeves extend the line of the arms without the visual weight of a full-length sleeve. Deliberately asymmetrical seaming introduces subtle movement across the upper body: one side features a defined seam line, while the opposite side remains smoother and more uninterrupted.
The back makes Fontea truly distinctive. A plunging open V reveals the dancer’s back line, while a sweeping panel of sheer mesh creates an unexpected frame. Fine-gauge microfiber provides smooth stretch and dependable shape recovery, with front lining adding useful opacity and stability through the solid bodice.
Why Dancers Love the Ballet Rosa Fontea Leotard
Ballet Rosa Fontea Wear Profile
The Dance World Wear Profile highlights how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. Individual fit and feel may vary.
Studio Experience
Fontea is particularly effective for dancers who want sleeve coverage without hiding the line of the arms. The transparent three-quarter sleeves remain visually light during port de bras, while the geometric V-front keeps the upper body looking sharply defined in the mirror.
The low back becomes especially noticeable through turns, directional changes and expressive contemporary movement. Correct girth remains important: the mesh neckline and back panel should lie smoothly without pulling, while the sleeves should follow the arms without restricting the shoulders.
Créateur 2026 – Geometry in Motion
Introduced within Ballet Rosa’s Créateur 2026 collection, Fontea reflects a more graphic side of the brand. Its character comes from proportion, transparency and deliberately uneven construction rather than traditional lace or decorative embellishment.
The result feels almost architectural. Each mesh panel directs the eye differently, giving the leotard a changing appearance as the dancer moves. Fontea is contemporary without abandoning Ballet Rosa’s beautifully controlled finish and classical understanding of the body.
Product Highlight
◩ Asymmetrical Signature
Fontea shows how asymmetry can feel refined rather than disruptive. The V-shaped mesh neckline, deliberately uneven seam placement and plunging back make the leotard feel designed rather than simply decorated. It is a confident choice for dancers who want their studio wear to reflect a more contemporary artistic identity.
Why We Recommend It
Fontea offers a rare balance of sleeve coverage, strong front structure and a dramatically open back. It feels distinctive enough for auditions, repertoire and performance while remaining clean and practical for regular professional training.
