Capezio dancewear is designed for a close, movement-ready fit. Use actual body measurements rather than everyday clothing size wherever possible. For leotards and other one-piece garments, girth is particularly important because it reflects the full length of the torso.
Capezio Ladies Garments Size Chart
Compare bust, waist, hips and girth to find your recommended Capezio size. This Dance World guide covers XS–L.
| Size | Bust | Waist | Hips | Girth |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| XS | 76–81 cm 30–32" | 55–61 cm 22–24" | 81–86 cm 32–34" | 137–142 cm 54–56" |

Capezio Children's Garments Size Chart
Capezio children's sizes run from Toddler through Extra Large. Clothing size is a useful starting point, but body measurements provide a more reliable guide for fitted dancewear.
| Capezio Size | US Size | Chest | Waist | Hips | Girth |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Toddler T | 2–4 | 50.8–53.3 cm 20–21" | 48.3–50.8 cm 19–20" | 53.3–58.4 cm 21–23" | 88.9–96.5 cm 35–38" |
| Small S | 4–5 | 55.9–58.4 cm 22–23" | 50.8–53.3 cm 20–21" | 58.4–63.5 cm 23–25" | 99–106.7 cm 39–42" |
| Intermediate I | 6–6X | 61–63.5 cm 24–25" | 53.3–58.4 cm 21–23" | 63.5–68.6 cm 25–27" | 109.2–116.8 cm 43–46" |
| Medium M | 7–8 | 66–71.1 cm 26–28" | 58.4–63.5 cm 23–25" | 68.6–73.7 cm 27–29" | 119.4–127 cm 47–50" |
| Large L | 10–12 | 73.7–78.7 cm 29–31" | 66–71.1 cm 26–28" | 76.2–81.3 cm 30–32" | 127–134.6 cm 50–53" |
| Extra Large XL | 14–16 | 83.8–88.9 cm 33–35" | 76.2–81.3 cm 30–32" | 86.4–91.4 cm 34–36" | 134.6–142.2 cm 53–56" |
For Capezio leotards, girth is the key measurement when body measurements suggest different sizes. A dancer may have a smaller chest or waist but still need the next size because of torso length. For children's dancewear, use the US clothing size as a reference only and prioritise actual measurements.

Capezio produces ballet, jazz, tap, character, ballroom and studio footwear, and sizing can vary considerably between models. The shoe tables above are general international conversions rather than a model-specific Capezio fit chart. Always follow the Dance World Fit Advice on the individual shoe page, as that recommendation should take priority.
How to Measure for Capezio 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 MeasurementStart at the high point of one shoulder. Bring the tape down the front of the torso, through the crotch and back up to the same shoulder in one complete loop.
Keep the tape comfortably close without pulling it tight. For Capezio leotards, girth is especially useful when choosing between two sizes.
Chest / Bust
Measure around the widest part of the chest or bust, keeping the tape straight and level around the body without compressing it.
Waist
Measure around the narrowest part of the torso. Keep the tape level and comfortably close to the body.
Hips
Measure around the widest part of the hips and seat while standing naturally. Keep the tape level all the way around.
Height
Stand straight without shoes, with feet flat on the floor, and measure from the floor to the top of the head.
Height is not part of Capezio's core bodywear chart, but it is useful when considering overall proportions and torso length.
Capezio bodywear is intended to sit close to the body while allowing unrestricted movement. For fitted leotards, use girth alongside bust, waist and hips rather than relying on a standard clothing size. Children's US size references are useful as a starting point only. Where an individual Capezio garment has its own fit note, use that product-specific advice alongside this chart.
