ALICIA Ballet Leotard in COSMO, Kimono-Inspired Iconic Dance Leotard

Some leotards become icons, and the Yumiko Alicia Ballet Leotard has earned its place as one of the brand's most recognisable and best-loved designs. Inspired by the elegant wrap of a traditional kimono, Alicia combines graceful double V-necklines, refined tailoring and a beautifully sculpted silhouette, creating a timeless ballet leotard that dancers return to season after season.

Yumiko Alicia Ballet Leotard in Cosmo - The Iconic Kimono-Inspired Ballet Leotard

Made from Yumiko's premium Italian stretch performance fabric, Alicia offers exceptional comfort while enhancing the body's natural lines. The signature double V-neckline is inspired by the graceful folds of a kimono, creating an elegant, feminine shape across both the front and back. Carefully tailored seams beneath the bust provide subtle shaping, while the luxurious Velvet trim adds refined definition and beautifully frames the neckline.

The sophisticated Cosmo body is paired with a soft Frost upper, creating a beautifully balanced colour combination that feels fresh, modern and effortlessly elegant. The dramatic open V-back highlights posture and port de bras, while the high-cut leg line elongates the legs to create beautiful classical proportions. Front lining provides additional comfort and confidence throughout every class and rehearsal.

Designed for dancers who demand both performance and elegance, Alicia moves naturally with every plié, pirouette and grand allegro. Whether you're training daily, preparing for an audition or performing on stage, this iconic Yumiko design delivers timeless style with exceptional freedom of movement.

Size and Fit

Yumiko leotards are designed for a close, streamlined fit. Many dancers find their usual size suitable, particularly if they have a shorter or standard torso and prefer a supportive second-skin feel.

We recommend sizing up if you have a longer torso, broader shoulders, a fuller bust, or prefer a little more room through the body. If you are between sizes, choosing the larger size will usually provide a more comfortable fit for long classes and rehearsals.

Yumiko has become one of the world's most admired ballet brands by combining exceptional craftsmanship with distinctive colour combinations and timeless studio styling.
