Size & Fit Advice

Overall Fit
DellaLo Milano leotards are designed with a close, professional ballet fit that beautifully follows the body's natural lines. The premium Italian stretch fabrics create a smooth, sculpted silhouette while allowing complete freedom of movement throughout class, rehearsal and performance.

Torso Length
Dancers with a longer torso or those between sizes may prefer sizing up for additional body length and everyday comfort. This allows the leotard to maintain its elegant proportions while providing a little extra length through the body.

Upper Body
The embroidered stretch tulle across the shoulders and neckline creates a supportive couture-inspired feel while remaining flexible enough for unrestricted movement. The premium construction provides gentle structure without limiting mobility, allowing dancers to move naturally through every exercise.

Dafne GL Fit Note
The embroidered floral tulle offers a beautifully refined silhouette with a slightly more structured feel than plain stretch mesh styles. It comfortably follows the body's movement while maintaining the elegant shape of the neckline and sleeves. If you have broader shoulders, a fuller bust or a longer torso, choosing the larger size may provide a more comfortable fit when between sizes.

Please Note: Our sizing advice is intended as a guide. Individual fit depends on torso length, body proportions and personal preference. If you're unsure which size to choose, our Dance World fitting specialists are always happy to help.

Size & Fit Advice

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.

S	82 – 86	62 – 66	86 – 90	141 – 147

Dance World Measuring Guide

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.

Dance World Tip

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 Fit Guidance

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.

DellaLo Milano Dafne Ballet Leotard | Luxury Embroidered Dancewear

DellaLo Milano Dafne GL in Charleston is a celebration of timeless ballet elegance, where delicate Italian craftsmanship meets contemporary performance design. Part of the prestigious Golden Label Collection, this exquisite women's ballet leotard combines luxurious stretch fabrics with beautifully embroidered floral tulle to create a silhouette that feels effortlessly graceful from every angle.

The romantic Charleston colourway pairs a soft dusty rose body with sheer mauve embroidered mesh, delicately decorated with ivory floral motifs inspired by the beauty of classical ballet. The result is an understated yet distinctive palette that catches the light beautifully while maintaining the refined aesthetic DellaLo Milano is renowned for.

Design & Performance

At the front, the elegant deep V-neckline naturally elongates the neck and upper body, framing the dancer without appearing overly revealing. Fine contrast piping highlights the clean architectural lines of the neckline, while the carefully positioned embroidered tulle introduces texture and dimension that changes beautifully under both natural light and stage lighting. The result is a refined look that photographs exceptionally well while remaining perfectly suited to everyday studio training.

The embroidered cap sleeves are one of Dafne GL's defining features. Crafted from lightweight stretch tulle, they gently soften the shoulder line while maintaining complete freedom through the arms. Unlike heavier decorative fabrics, the premium embroidered mesh moves naturally with every port de bras, cambré and extension, allowing dancers to perform without restriction while adding an unmistakably romantic finish.

Beyond its visual beauty, Dafne GL Charleston has been engineered for performance. The premium Italian microfiber offers exceptional four-way stretch with excellent shape recovery, allowing the leotard to move effortlessly with the dancer through demanding choreography. The embroidered stretch tulle maintains flexibility despite its intricate floral detailing, ensuring that every movement feels unrestricted while preserving the luxurious appearance that defines the Golden Label Collection.
