Size & Fit Advice

Overall Fit: DellaLo Milano leotards are designed with a close professional ballet fit that beautifully follows the body's natural lines.

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

Upper Body: The embroidered stretch-tulle bodice and sheer sleeves provide a supportive yet flexible fit, allowing complete freedom through the shoulders and arms while maintaining Svetlana DI's elegant, sculpted silhouette. The soft sweetheart insert offers comfortable coverage without adding bulk.

Svetlana DI Fit Note: Svetlana DI fits true to DellaLo Milano sizing and is designed to create a refined, close-fitting silhouette. The embroidered stretch tulle feels lightweight and flexible, making it especially comfortable through the upper body despite its couture-inspired appearance. Dancers with broader shoulders, a fuller bust or a longer torso may prefer sizing up when between sizes for additional comfort and body length.

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

Light, Line and Italian Romance

Delicate without disappearing, the DellaLo Milano Svetlana DI Violetta Ballet Leotard brings an unmistakably Italian sense of lightness to the studio. Its ice-lilac body is framed by softly embroidered stretch-tulle sleeves, creating a refined floral effect that feels romantic but never overly decorative.

The sculpted sweetheart detail gives the front beautiful definition, while the extra-deep open back lengthens the dancer’s line and leaves the shoulders free for expressive port de bras. It is a leotard designed to be noticed through movement rather than weight or heavy construction.

DellaLo Milano Svetlana DI Violetta, Open-Back Ballet Leotard – Design & Performance

Svetlana begins with a close-fitting Italian warp-knit body in DellaLo’s soft Violetta shade. A sculpted sweetheart-shaped design area creates definition across the front, while floral embroidered stretch tulle continues across the shoulders and into elegant three-quarter sleeves.

The rounded neckline keeps the upper line classical and clean. From behind, the extra-deep scoop exposes the shoulder blades and creates an elongated, beautifully open silhouette that responds especially well to épaulement and upper-body movement.

There is no conventional front or back lining. Instead, coverage is concentrated through the doubled and overlaid design areas. This is what gives Svetlana its exceptionally light, breathable feel, although dancers wanting substantial coverage or built-in bust support should take the delicate construction into consideration.

Why Dancers Love the DellaLo Svetlana

Weightless Atelier Feel

An unlined construction keeps the leotard exceptionally light, breathable and close to the skin.

Stretch Embroidered Sleeves

Soft stretch tulle brings floral detail to the arms while feeling more forgiving than a firm lace sleeve.

Sculpted Sweetheart Detail

The doubled front design creates flattering definition and targeted coverage without adding heavy structure.

Extra-Deep Open Back

A beautifully low scoop highlights the shoulders, lengthens the back and enhances expressive port de bras.

DellaLo Milano Svetlana Leotard Wear Profile

Fit Close Italian fit; consider the larger size if between sizes or longer through the torso

Feel Exceptionally light and breathable, with a smooth warp-knit body and soft stretch tulle

Compression Medium – follows the body with gentle hold rather than a firm sculpting sensation

Support Moderate – the close fit and doubled sweetheart area provide some security, but there is no shelf bra or structured bust support

Coverage Light–Moderate – strongest through the doubled sweetheart design area, with sheer tulle, single-layer construction and a very low back elsewhere

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

Lining None – there is no conventional front or back lining; strategic doubled areas provide targeted coverage while preserving lightness

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

Studio Experience

Svetlana feels considerably lighter on the body than its detailed appearance suggests. The embroidery gives the leotard visual richness, but the absence of heavy lining or internal structure allows it to remain airy, responsive and almost weightless through longer classes and rehearsals.

The stretch tulle makes the three-quarter sleeves more forgiving through the arms than a firm lace construction. DellaLo’s overall fit remains close and distinctly Italian, so dancers with a longer torso, broader shoulders or a fuller bust may feel more comfortable choosing the larger size.

Product Highlight

✦ La leggerezza è il lusso - Lightness is the luxury

Svetlana’s most distinctive quality is not added structure, but what DellaLo leaves out. With no conventional lining or heavy internal construction, the floral embroidery and sculpted sweetheart detail appear to float across the body. The result is delicate, expressive and unmistakably Milanese.

Why We Recommend It

This is a particularly beautiful choice for experienced dancers who want a memorable audition, workshop or performance leotard without a costume-like feel. It delivers strong visual impact while remaining exceptionally light and movement-focused.

Dance World Tip

Choose your size primarily by girth and consider sizing up if you are between sizes. Because the body is unlined and the back is exceptionally low, seamless nude or low-back foundations will give the cleanest finish.
