Size & Fit Advice

Overall Fit
DellaLo Milano leotards are designed with a close, professional ballet fit that follows the body's natural lines while allowing unrestricted movement.

Torso Length
Dancers with longer torsos or those between sizes may prefer sizing up for additional body length and comfort.

Upper Body
The embroidered stretch tulle provides flexibility while maintaining a beautifully supportive fit. The high neckline sits comfortably without feeling restrictive, while the cap sleeves allow complete freedom through the shoulders.

Model Fit Note
Selene DI creates a beautifully elongated upper body thanks to its elegant high collar and sculptural back design. The fitted neckline and dramatic open back make this model particularly flattering for dancers who enjoy clean, contemporary lines with a refined couture finish.

Please note: Our sizing advice is intended as a guide. Individual fit depends on torso length, body proportions and personal preference.

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.

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.

Dance World Fit Note DellaLo Milano size charts and Dance World sizing recommendations are intended as a guide only. Fit may vary depending on body proportions, leotard design, fabric, stretch, compression and personal preference.

Description

Plum, Lilac and a Stronger Line

The DellaLo Milano Selene DI Prugna Ballet Leotard pairs a poised high neckline with the lightness of embroidered tulle. Its deep plum body creates a rich foundation for powder-lilac embroidery, giving the design contrast, depth and an unmistakable stage presence.

Small wing-like cap sleeves soften the shoulders, while the wide keyhole back opens the silhouette from behind. The result feels structured and commanding without the weight of a conventionally lined high-neck leotard.

DellaLo Milano Selene DI Prugna, Luxury High Neck Leotard – Design & Performance

Selene combines a smooth Prugna warp-knit body with semi-sheer lilac embroidered tulle across the upper bodice and shoulders. A high collar lengthens the neck and gives the dancer a composed, contemporary line from the front.

The embroidered tulle extends into sculpted cap sleeves that gently frame the shoulders without covering the arms. At the back, a secure snap-button collar sits above a wide teardrop keyhole, revealing the shoulder blades and creating a dramatic contrast with the high front.

There is no conventional front or back lining. Coverage is strongest through the deep plum body and overlapping design areas, while the embroidered upper section and open back remain intentionally light and delicate.

Why Dancers Love the DellaLo Selene

Elongating High Collar

The refined neckline creates a clean vertical line and gives the upper body a poised, contemporary presence.

Embroidered Cap Sleeves

Wing-like tulle sleeves soften the shoulders while leaving the arms free through port de bras.

Plum and Lilac Contrast

Powder-lilac embroidery appears luminous against the rich Prugna body, creating depth without heaviness.

Wide Keyhole Back

The open teardrop shape reveals the shoulder blades and balances the more covered high-neck front.

DellaLo Milano Selene Leotard Wear Profile

Fit Close Italian fit with a secured high collar; dancers between sizes or longer through the torso may prefer the larger size

Feel Exceptionally light, with a smooth body and delicate embroidered tulle across the upper torso and shoulders

Compression Medium – follows the torso with gentle hold rather than dense or restrictive compression

Support Good – the high neckline and close fit provide gentle security, but there is no shelf bra or structured bust support

Coverage Good – the deep Prugna body and high front provide visual coverage, balanced by sheer embroidered tulle, no lining and a wide keyhole back

Movement Excellent – open arms, flexible tulle and four-way stretch allow freedom through the shoulders, back and torso

Lining None – no conventional front or back lining; strategically overlapping areas provide targeted coverage without adding weight

The Dance World Wear Profile highlights how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. This profile reflects the DellaLo Milano Selene DI Prugna specifically; individual fit and feel may vary.

Studio Experience

Selene gives the dancer the composed appearance of a high-neck leotard without feeling heavy or enclosed. The collar remains securely fastened behind the neck, while the wide keyhole releases the upper back and allows the shoulder blades to remain visually expressive.

The cap sleeves add a dressed, performance-ready finish but cover very little of the arms, so movement remains free. Prugna also provides more visual opacity than a pale DellaLo body, although the overall construction is still intentionally unlined and lightly supportive.

Product Highlight

✦ Two Purples, Two Kinds of Light

Selene’s colour pairing is what gives the design its depth. The plum body absorbs the light and creates a strong base, while the powder-lilac embroidery reflects it across the shoulders. The effect shifts beautifully between stillness and movement, making the leotard especially effective for auditions, photography and performance.

Dance World Tip

Pay particular attention to girth when selecting Selene. A body that is too short may pull at the high collar, so dancers between sizes or longer through the torso should consider the larger size. The wide keyhole back may reveal conventional bra straps.
