Use your body measurements rather than your everyday clothing size. Mara Dancewear uses different sizing across leotards, ballet skirts and warm-up pants, so always check the chart for the garment you are choosing. If your measurements fall between sizes, consider the measurement most important for that garment and your preferred fit.
Mara Dancewear Leotard Size Chart
Use your chest, waist, hips and girth measurements to find your recommended Mara Dancewear leotard size.
| Measurement | XXS | XS | S | M | L | XL |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chest | 78–82 cm 30"–32" | 82–86 cm 32"–34" | 86–90 cm 34"–36" | 90–94 cm 36"–38" | 94–98 cm 38"–40" | 98–102 cm 40"–42" |
| Waist | 58–62 cm 22"–23" | 62–66 cm 24"–25" | 66–70 cm 26"–27" | 70–74 cm 28"–29" | 74–78 cm 30"–31" | 78–82 cm 32"–33" |
| Hips | 84–88 cm 32"–34" | 88–92 cm 34"–36" | 92–96 cm 36"–38" | 96–100 cm 38"–40" | 100–104 cm 40"–42" | 104–108 cm 42"–44" |
| Girth | 125–132 cm 49"–52" | 132–139 cm 52"–55" | 139–146 cm 55"–58" | 146–153 cm 58"–61" | 153–160 cm 61"–64" | 167–174 cm 64"–67" |
For Mara leotards, girth is one of the most useful 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 may be more comfortable in the larger size.
Mara Dancewear Skirt Size Chart
Use your waist and hip measurements to find the most suitable Mara Dancewear ballet skirt size.
| Measurement | XS/S | M/L | One Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Waist | 62–70 cm 24"–27" | 70–78 cm 28"–31" | 64–76 cm 25"–30" |

How to Measure for Mara 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 MeasurementUsing 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 the body to the same shoulder, creating one complete loop.
Keep the tape comfortably close to the body without pulling it tight. The dancer should stand naturally while being measured.
Chest
Measure around the fullest part of the chest, keeping the tape straight and level around the body. Keep the tape comfortably against the body 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
Measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat while standing naturally. Keep the tape level all the way 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.
Mara Dancewear uses different size structures depending on the garment. For leotards, compare chest, waist, hips and especially girth. For skirts, waist and hips are the most useful measurements. For warm-up pants, use waist and hips together with Mara's height guidance to choose between XS/S and M/L.

Soft Grey, a Little Blush
The Mara Dancewear Brisa Mist ballet leotard combines a pinched V neckline, wide shoulder straps and a deep scoop back in smooth, soft-touch fabric. Pale grey and blush-toned trim create a gentle studio palette, while exceptionally soft front lining adds comfort for ballet class and rehearsal.
Mara Dancewear Brisa Mist Ballet Leotard – Design & Performance
Brisa uses shape rather than surface texture to create its character. The V neckline is softened by a small centre pinch, adding gentle definition through the bust without an underbust seam or decorative panel. Wide, fixed shoulder straps give the upper silhouette a clean tank shape, with no camisole adjusters to position.
Fine blush-toned binding follows the neckline and armholes before tracing the deep rounded scoop back. Against Mist, the contrast is subtle: enough to define the opening without breaking up the soft neutral palette. A small metallic Mara Dancewear emblem sits below the back, while the high-cut ballet leg completes the streamlined silhouette.
Made in Spain, Brisa uses 80% nylon and 20% elastane smooth performance fabric, rather than the ribbed construction of Aura, Alma and Cala. Its breathable four-way stretch follows the body with moderate compression and support. Expect a softer, more fluid sensation than the firmer ribbed styles, with comfortable hold rather than strong sculpting.
Inside, the full front lining is exceptionally soft against the skin. Made from 86% nylon and 14% elastane, it adds comfort and additional coverage beneath this pale shade. We describe coverage in Mist as moderate: the lining provides reassurance through the front, but the overall opacity is lighter than Brisa Black and can vary with fit, stretch and lighting. The scoop back remains open.
Why Dancers Love Mara Dancewear Brisa
A Softer Kind of Hold
A useful alternative when you enjoy a close ballet fit but don't want the firmer sensation of ribbed compression. Brisa follows the body with a smoother, more fluid feel.
Easy Class Dressing
The wide fixed straps and pull-on shape keep getting ready uncomplicated. There is no zip, back clasp or fine strap hardware to arrange before class.
Easy to Coordinate
Mist makes a gentle base for your existing skirts and warm-ups. Pick up the blush edging with pink layers, or introduce darker colours without a busy pattern to work around.
Comfort for Longer Days
The exceptionally soft front lining is especially welcome when class turns into rehearsal. It brings a smooth inner surface to a leotard chosen for how it feels as well as how it looks.
Mara Dancewear Brisa Leotard Wear Profile
The Dance World Wear Profile highlights how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. This profile reflects the Mara Dancewear Brisa Leotard in Mist specifically; individual fit and feel may vary.
Studio Experience
Brisa is a useful choice for days when you want moderate hold rather than a firmly compressive feel. The smooth body follows movement, and the wide straps offer a simple upper fit without adjustment hardware. For class that runs into coaching, the exceptionally soft front lining is the detail worth appreciating: comfort against the skin without changing the clean, understated exterior.
Mara Dancewear Brisa Mist Colour Story
Mist sits between pale grey and soft stone, with blush-toned trim warming the outline. It is gentler than a bright white and quieter than an all-pink leotard, allowing the pinch front and low back to remain the focus. The smooth fabric gives the colour an even finish without the texture of ribbing or lace.
Ballet pink tights pick up the warmth of the binding, while a pale grey or dusty-rose skirt keeps the outfit softly coordinated. Charcoal, navy or burgundy warm-ups introduce a deeper contrast. Mist is particularly lovely when you want a light studio palette without matching every piece exactly.
