Care information

Hand Wash Recommended: For best results, hand wash your leotard in cold water using a mild detergent. This gentle method helps preserve the fabric's stretch and color.
Machine Wash: If you prefer using a washing machine, place the leotard in a mesh laundry bag to protect it. Use the delicate cycle with cold water and a mild detergent.
Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as they can damage the microfiber fabric and affect its elasticity.

Ballet Rosa Size & Fit Advice

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.

Dance World Tip

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.

Dance World Measuring Guide

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 Measurement

Using 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 Fit Guidance

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.

Dance World Fit Note Ballet Rosa size charts and Dance World sizing recommendations are intended as a guide only. Fit may vary depending on body proportions, torso length, garment design, fabric, stretch, lining and personal preference. Where an individual Ballet Rosa style carries its own sizing recommendation, use that model-specific advice alongside this chart.

Description

Soft Pleats, a Striking Silhouette

The Ballet Rosa Celestine High Neck Ballet Leotard pairs delicate neckline pleating with teardrop cutouts at the front and back. Made from soft Italian microfibre with full front lining, this sleeveless dance leotard brings refined detail to ballet classes, rehearsals and auditions.

Ballet Rosa Celestine High Neck Leotard – Design & Performance

A softly pleated high neckline gives Celestine its distinctive front. Fine folds radiate from the collar towards the shoulders, framing a small central teardrop opening. The detail draws attention towards the face and collarbones, while the smooth bodice keeps the overall silhouette clean.

A larger teardrop cutout at the back echoes the front opening, extending from the nape towards the lower back. Gentle pleating near the shoulders adds softness around this elongated shape. A covered hook-and-eye fastening closes the collar discreetly, completing the line of the neckline.

Fine-gauge Italian microfibre provides softness, supple stretch and shape recovery for regular studio wear. Full front lining adds useful opacity through the solid front of the leotard, while a classic ballet-cut leg line gives the design a familiar finish at the hips and seat.

Why Dancers Love Celestine

A Graceful Neckline Delicate pleating frames the face and shoulders, bringing a dressed-up feel to a simple ballet silhouette.

An Expressive Open Back The elongated teardrop opening creates a beautiful frame for the back as the shoulders turn.

Softness with Stretch Italian microfibre feels smooth against the skin and follows the body through movement.

A Reassuring Front Full front lining adds opacity through the solid bodice for comfortable, confident studio wear.

The Dance World Wear Profile highlights how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. Individual fit and feel may vary.

Studio Experience

Celestine’s collar gives a gently enclosed feel at the neckline, while the sleeveless cut leaves the arms free for port de bras. The pleats create a lovely frame for épaulement, and the large back opening keeps much of the back uncovered. Correct girth is especially important: the collar should remain comfortable as you lift the arms or incline the torso, with enough length through the body to avoid pulling at the nape.

Ballet Rosa Italienne – Elegance in the Shape of the Fabric

Part of Ballet Rosa’s Créateur range, the Italienne collection brings Italian microfibre into expressive, carefully considered silhouettes. Necklines, cutouts and shaping give these pieces their individual character while preserving a clean ballet aesthetic. Celestine captures that approach through its softly pleated collar and paired teardrop openings, allowing the fabric’s folds and the dancer’s movement to become part of the design.

Product Highlight

✦ Understated Drama

Celestine is a lovely choice when you want a leotard to feel a little more dressed for the occasion. Its detail sits around the face, shoulders and back, leaving the main body clean and easy to pair with a simple rehearsal skirt.

Fine pleating and two teardrop openings give Celestine its distinctive balance of poise and openness.

Dance World Tip

Open the nape fastening before putting Celestine on or taking it off. Settle the body and leg openings first, then close the collar gently. Check that you can turn your head and raise your arms comfortably; tension at the neck can be a sign that you need more length through the torso.
