Mondor uses Canadian age-based sizing, which can feel different from the numbered gymnastics sizes commonly used in Europe. For the best fit, use the body measurements rather than choosing by age alone. For leotards, girth is particularly important because it reflects the full length of the torso.
From our fitting experience, Mondor's 8–10 generally feels closest to approximately a The Zone size 28. We use this only as a familiar reference for customers - it is not an official brand-to-brand size conversion.
Mondor Girls' Gymnastics Size Chart
Compare bust, waist, hips and girth to find the best starting size. The age label is a guide only.
| Mondor Size | Dance World Reference | Bust | Waist | Hips | Girth |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6X–7 | ≈ The Zone 26 | 60.5–66 cm 24–26" | 50.5–53 cm 20–21" | 66–71 cm 26–28" | 106.5–114 cm 42–45" |
| 8–10 | ≈ The Zone 28 | 66–71 cm 26–28" | 53–55.5 cm 21–22" | 71–76 cm 28–30" | 116.5–124 cm 46–49" |
| 10–12 | ≈ The Zone 30 | 71–76 cm 28–30" | 55.5–58 cm 22–23" | 76–81 cm 30–32" | 127–132 cm 50–52" |
| 12–14 | ≈ The Zone 32 | 73.5–81 cm 29–32" | 58–60.5 cm 23–24" | 78.5–86 cm 31–34" | 132–139.5 cm 52–55" |
Mondor Women's Size Chart
Adult Mondor dancewear sizing uses S, M, L and XL. Compare bust, waist, hips and girth rather than converting directly from everyday clothing size.
| Size | Bust | Waist | Hips | Girth |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| S | 78.5–86 cm 31–34" | 60.5–68.5 cm 24–27" | 83.5–91 cm 33–36" | 142–149.5 cm 56–59" |
| M | 83.5–91 cm 33–36" | 66–73.5 cm 26–29" | 91–99 cm 36–39" | 149.5–157 cm 59–62" |
| L | 88.5–96.5 cm 35–38" | 73.5–81 cm 29–32" | 99–106.5 cm 39–42" | 157–165 cm 62–65" |
| XL | 99–106.5 cm 39–42" | 81–88.5 cm 32–35" | 104–111.5 cm 41–44" | 165–167.5 cm 63–66" |
Do not choose Mondor leotards from the age label alone. The Canadian age notation can fit differently from the European gymnastics sizing many customers are familiar with. Use girth first, then bust/chest and waist, and treat the age as a secondary reference.
How to Measure for Mondor Gymnastics Leotards
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 MeasurementStart 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 in one complete loop.
For Mondor leotards, girth is the most useful measurement when age and body measurements suggest different sizes.
Bust / Chest
Measure around the fullest part of the bust or chest, keeping the tape level around the body without compressing it.
Waist
Measure around the natural waist, usually the narrowest part of the torso. Keep the tape comfortably close and level.
Hips
Measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat while standing naturally. Keep the tape level all the way around.
Height
Stand straight without shoes, with feet flat on the floor, and measure from the floor to the top of the head.
Mondor does not use height in this garment chart, but it can help when considering overall proportions and torso length.
Mondor's Canadian size labels can appear larger or smaller than expected when compared with familiar European age or numbered gymnastics sizes. Dance World therefore recommends choosing from the actual measurement chart rather than the age printed on the garment. Our familiar-size references are based on fitting experience and are intended to help customers interpret the chart, not replace Mondor's published measurements.

Waves of Colour for Class
The Mondor Waves 27822 girls’ sleeveless gymnastics leotard combines a colourful geometric wave print with shimmering circular details for classes, club training and display routines. Flowing shapes cover the front and back, giving the familiar tank shape a lively finish. Broad shoulder straps frame a round neckline, while the scoop back and sleeveless cut leave the arms uncovered for reaching and balancing. Made with flexible stretch fabric and supplied with a matching hair tie, it is a cheerful choice for young gymnasts who enjoy a bold print in their class wardrobe.
Mondor Waves 27822 Sleeveless Gymnastics Leotard – Design & Performance
The 80% polyester and 20% elastane fabric offers flexible stretch for reaching, bending and practising skills. The sleeveless tank cut leaves the arms uncovered, with broad shoulder straps and a round front neckline completing the familiar gymnastics shape. A Sorbtek gusset helps move moisture away from the skin in the gusset area.
The Waves print mixes flowing geometric shapes with small shimmering circles across the front and back. Blue tones sit alongside brighter accents, giving the pattern plenty of detail without needing a separate front motif. The print continues over the shoulder straps and around the scoop neckline at the back.
A simple scoop back keeps the focus on the patterned fabric, while the close stretch shape is easy to pair with gymnastics shorts when extra leg coverage is preferred. The matching printed scrunchie carries the design into the hairstyle, bringing the outfit together for a favourite weekly class or a display routine.

✦ Flowing Shapes, Little Circles of Shine
The Waves design brings together a lively geometric print, shimmering circular details and a simple sleeveless shape. With the pattern continuing across the front and back, this is a cheerful gymnastics leotard for children who like their class outfit to feel full of colour.
How Much Growing Room Should a Gymnastics Leotard Have?
A little growing room is useful, but a gymnastics leotard should still fit neatly today. The shoulder straps should stay in place, and the neckline and leg openings should sit comfortably without gaping or digging in. Ask your child to reach overhead and bend gently to check that the body length allows comfortable movement.
Choose by measurements, with particular attention to torso girth. If your child falls between sizes, compare their full measurements with the size guide and ask our team for advice. Age alone is a less useful guide than how the leotard fits through the body.
