Size & Fit Advice

Ichika fits true to Ballet Rosa sizing. Start with your usual size, checking your bust measurement and allowing comfortable room for your intended base layer.

The V-neckline should sit comfortably against the upper chest, and the raglan sleeves should allow you to raise your arms without tightness at the underarms. Choose the size for your bust and shoulders, then use the drawcord to personalise the front length.

If you are between sizes or prefer more layering room, consider the larger size. A longer torso will make the crop sit higher; releasing the ruche adds some front length, while the back remains cropped.

Ballet Rosa Size & Fit Advice

Ballet Rosa dancewear is designed for a close, professional ballet fit. Use your actual body measurements rather than everyday clothing size. For leotards and unitards, girth is particularly important because it reflects the full length of the torso. If you are between sizes or have a longer torso, the larger size is often the more comfortable starting point.

Dance World Tip

For Ballet Rosa leotards, girth is the most useful measurement when sizes disagree. A dancer can have a small bust and waist but still need the next size because of torso length. If the girth is close to the upper limit, or the dancer has a longer torso, sizing up usually gives a more comfortable result without losing the close ballet silhouette.

Dance World Measuring Guide

How to Measure for Ballet Rosa Dancewear

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 Measurement

Using a flexible tape measure, start 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, creating one complete loop.

Keep the tape comfortably close to the body without pulling it tight. For Ballet Rosa leotards, girth is especially important when deciding between two sizes.

Bust / Chest

Measure around the fullest part of the bust or chest, keeping the tape straight and level around the body and comfortably close without compressing it.

Waist

Measure around the natural waist, usually the narrowest part of the torso. Keep the tape level and do not pull it too tightly.

Hips

Stand with the feet together and measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat. Keep the tape straight and level around the body.

Height

Stand straight without shoes, with feet flat on the floor, and measure from the floor to the top of the head.

Ballet Rosa does not use height directly in this women and girls garment chart, but it is useful when considering overall body proportion and whether a longer-torso fit may be needed.

Ballet Rosa Fit Guidance

Ballet Rosa adult sizes correspond approximately to 36 = XS/Petite, 38 = Small, 40 = Medium, 42 = Large and 44 = XL. The garments are intended to fit closely, but torso length is particularly important in leotards. If the dancer has a longer torso or the girth sits near the top of a size range, consider the next size up. Ballet Rosa also notes that a Long Torso adjustment of approximately 2 cm / 1" can sometimes be appropriate.

Dance World Fit Note Ballet Rosa size charts and Dance World sizing recommendations are intended as a guide only. Fit may vary depending on body proportions, torso length, garment design, fabric, stretch, lining and personal preference. Where an individual Ballet Rosa style carries its own sizing recommendation, use that model-specific advice alongside this chart.

Description

Gathered to Suit Your Day

The Ballet Rosa Ichika Bamboo Ballet Top is a long-sleeved warm-up with a V-neckline and adjustable front ruching. Soft stretch jersey and a cropped silhouette make it an elegant layer for ballet, Pilates and everyday outfits, with a front length you can personalise.

Ballet Rosa Ichika Bamboo Ballet Top – Design & Performance

Ichika’s defining detail is the adjustable drawcord running through the centre front. Draw it up for more pronounced gathering and a higher front hem, or release it for a softer ruche and a little extra front length. The V-neckline leads naturally into the gathered panel, giving the simple crop a graceful focal point.

Long raglan sleeves extend diagonally from the neckline, creating a smooth shoulder line. The plain, closed back keeps the silhouette uncluttered, with a cropped hem that sits clear of the hips. Its softly fitted shape works neatly over a leotard or lightweight fitted base.

Made from 90% rayon derived from bamboo and 10% elastane, the jersey combines a smooth feel with comfortable stretch. Ballet Rosa describes the fabric as breathable and lightweight, making Ichika a useful extra layer at the beginning of class or between rehearsals. The gathered front also pairs beautifully with high-waisted leggings or relaxed trousers beyond the studio.

Why Dancers Love Ichika

Your Preferred Front Length Adjust the drawcord to change the gathering and where the front hem sits above your waistband.

Soft from the First Stretch Smooth bamboo jersey feels gentle against the skin as you ease into your warm-up.

Comfort Through the Shoulders Stretch fabric and raglan sleeves allow an easy reach through port de bras and gentle mobility work.

An Elegant Finishing Layer The V-neck and gathered front bring definition to a simple leotard or leggings outfit.

The Dance World Wear Profile highlights how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. Individual fit and feel may vary.

Studio Experience

The front adjustment is especially useful when changing between a leotard and a higher waistband: a small change in the gathering can make the proportions feel quite different. Through port de bras and gentle torso turns, the stretch jersey follows the upper body while the long sleeves provide a light layer. Set the ruche with your arms relaxed, then reach overhead to check that the neckline and underarms remain comfortable.

Ballet Rosa Bamboo – Softness with Personal Expression

Ballet Rosa’s Bamboo collection brings fluid fabrics and relaxed styling into the dance wardrobe. Alongside softly draped tops and easy layers, Ichika adds a more personal detail: gathering that you can shape around your own outfit. It captures the collection’s appeal as clothing for the moments around movement, from preparing for class to heading home after Pilates.

Product Highlight

✦ Gather It Your Way

Ichika offers a small but useful freedom in how you wear your warm-up. A softly gathered front gives an easy finish over a leotard, while a more pronounced ruche creates a defined crop above a high waistband. The simple back keeps the attention on that adjustable detail.

Adjustable centre-front ruching gives Ichika its distinctive, personalised silhouette.

Dance World Tip

Adjust the front gently, easing the fabric along the drawcord before tying the ends into a secure bow. Choose the gathering with your intended base layer underneath, and keep the ties neatly secured during class or Pilates. Loosen the ruche before washing so the gathered fabric can be cleaned and reshaped evenly.
