DENISE Ballet Leotard in STORM, Empire Waist Camisole Design

Elegant in its simplicity yet beautifully refined, the Yumiko Denise Ballet Leotard is designed to flatter the dancer's natural lines with graceful shaping and contemporary style. Featuring sculpting princess seams, a feminine empire waist and a timeless camisole silhouette, Denise creates an effortlessly polished look for ballet class, rehearsals and auditions.

Yumiko Denise Ballet Leotard in Storm - Sculpted Elegance with a Flattering Empire Waist

Made from Yumiko's premium stretch performance fabric, Denise combines exceptional comfort with beautifully tailored construction. The elegant camisole neckline is complemented by carefully placed princess seams that gently contour the body, while the softly curved empire waist enhances the silhouette and creates beautifully balanced proportions. The luxurious Velvet Serenade bodice adds subtle texture and depth, perfectly finished with crisp White trim for a clean, contemporary contrast.

The rich Storm body colour creates a sophisticated foundation, beautifully offset by the soft shimmer of the velvet upper. Turn to the back to reveal a graceful low scoop back that highlights posture and elegant ballet lines. The high-cut leg elongates the legs, while the front lining provides additional comfort and confidence throughout every class and rehearsal.

Lightweight, supportive and designed to move seamlessly with the dancer, Denise offers unrestricted freedom through every plié, pirouette and grand allegro. Combining refined tailoring with timeless Yumiko styling, it's a leotard that feels as elegant to wear as it looks.

Size and Fit

Denise has a close, streamlined fit and runs noticeably smaller than other Yumiko styles. We strongly recommend choosing one size up from your usual Yumiko size for the most comfortable fit.

Dancers with a longer torso, broader shoulders, a fuller bust, or those who prefer a little more room through the body may wish to consider sizing up further. If you're unsure between sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size.
