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.

A Study in Silver Light
The DellaLo Milano Mania CL Silver is an embroidered ballet leotard with a cool silver-grey body, sculptural softly squared neckline and gathered three-quarter tulle sleeves. Handcrafted in Milan, this pale Classic Collection colourway softens Mania’s unusual geometry with muted mauve tulle, luminous floral embroidery and delicate silver-blue detailing.
DellaLo Milano Mania CL Silver, Embroidered Ballet Leotard – Design & Performance
Mania’s neckline sits somewhere between a soft square and a contemporary geometric line. Fine silver-blue piping traces its edge, while a subtle angled break prevents the shape from feeling overly formal and gives the collarbones a beautifully individual frame.
The lightweight three-quarter sleeves are softly gathered close beneath the arms rather than at the shoulders. This unusual placement allows the tulle to form gentle folds without creating volume across the shoulder line, giving the design fluidity while keeping its proportions precise.
Pale floral embroidery travels across the muted mauve upper bodice and returns at the sleeve cuffs, bringing cohesion to the design. Against the cool silver-grey body, the embroidery feels luminous and tonal, visible enough to add texture, but never heavy or ornate.
DellaLo’s warp-knit fabric, plain tulle and exclusive embroidered tulle create an exceptionally light, breathable construction without conventional front or back lining. Coverage is strongest where the upper fabrics overlap and naturally lighter through the pale, single-layer areas.
Why Dancers Love the DellaLo Mania
Sculptural Soft-Square Neckline
A precise piped edge and subtle angled detail create a fresh alternative to the usual scoop or bateau neckline.
Underarm-Gathered Tulle
Soft gathering beneath the arms shapes the sleeves without adding puffed volume around the shoulders.
Luminous Floral Embroidery
Pale embroidered motifs catch the light across the bodice and cuffs while remaining beautifully understated.
Cool Tonal Palette
Silver-grey, muted mauve and soft blue-grey detailing give this statement design an unusually gentle finish.
DellaLo Mania CL Silver Leotard Wear Profile
The Dance World Wear Profile highlights how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. This profile reflects the DellaLo Mania CL Silver specifically; individual fit, coverage and feel may vary.
Studio Experience
Silver reveals the softer side of Mania’s architecture. The neckline still creates a precise frame around the upper body, but the tonal tulle and pale embroidery make its unusual angles feel delicate rather than dramatic.
In movement, the softly gathered sleeves are particularly beautiful. The tulle opens gently as the arms lift and settles into subtle folds when they lower, while the pale embroidery appears and disappears with changes in light.
Product Highlight
✨ Where Structure Becomes Weightless
The Vesuvio colourway emphasises Mania’s depth and drama; Silver allows the same construction to almost float. Its unusual neckline, underarm gathering and tonal embroidery remain unmistakably distinctive, but the pale palette gives every detail a softer and more ethereal presence.
Dance World Tip: Silver is pale and intentionally unlined, so coverage may vary under strong studio or stage lighting.The sleeves are also closely fitted; dancers with broader shoulders, fuller upper arms or a longer torso may prefer the larger size when between sizes.
