Mirella by BLOCH uses BLOCH dance-apparel sizing for its ladies' and girls' collections. For the most reliable fit, use actual body measurements rather than everyday clothing size or age alone. For leotards and other one-piece dancewear, girth is especially important because it reflects the full length of the torso.
Mirella Ladies Dancewear Size Chart
Compare bust, waist, hips and girth to find the best starting size for Mirella leotards, skirts, separates and warm-up pieces.

Mirella Children's Dancewear Size Chart
Age is a useful starting point for Mirella girls' dancewear, but body measurements provide a more reliable guide. Check girth particularly carefully when choosing a leotard.
| Mirella Size | Approx. Age | Chest | Waist | Hips | Girth |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Child Petite | 2–4 yrs | 51–54 cm 20–21" | 46–49 cm 18–19" | 54–59 cm 21–23" | 82–89 cm 32–35" |
| Child Small | 4–6 yrs | 54–59 cm 21–23" | 49–54 cm 19–21" | 59–64 cm 23–25" | 92–99 cm 36–39" |
| Child Medium | 6–7/8 yrs | 59–64 cm 23–25" | 54–56 cm 21–22" | 64–69 cm 25–27" | 102–109 cm 40–43" |

| Child XX-Large | 12–14 yrs | 72–76 cm 28.5–30" | 62–66 cm 24.5–26" | 75–80 cm 29.5–31.5" | 130–135 cm 51–54" |
For Mirella leotards, use girth first when measurements point to different sizes. Torso length can make a significant difference to comfort even when the bust or waist sits comfortably within a smaller size. For children, treat age as a guide rather than the deciding measurement.
How to Measure for Mirella 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 to the same shoulder, creating one complete loop.
Keep the tape comfortably close to the body without pulling it tight. Girth is particularly important when choosing Mirella leotards and other one-piece dancewear.
Bust / Chest
Measure around the fullest part of the bust or chest, keeping the tape level around the body without compressing it.
Waist
Measure around the natural waist, usually the narrowest part of the torso. Keep the tape level and comfortably close to the body.
Hips
Measure around the fullest 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 included in the core Mirella body-measurement table, but it can help when considering overall proportions and torso length.
Mirella is part of BLOCH and currently follows BLOCH's main dance-apparel measurements. Ladies' sizing runs from Petite to X-Large, while children's garments use age-based Child Petite through larger child sizes. Individual collections may not be produced in every size, and seasonal designs can feel slightly different depending on fabric, lining, mesh, lace and garment construction. Always use any product-specific Dance World fit advice alongside this guide.

A Little Shimmer, Plenty of Personality
The Mirella Celestia Girls’ Short Sleeve Printed Leotard M20008C brings delicate detail to a young dancer’s studio wardrobe. A scattering of textured dots decorates the front, while a triple cross back creates a striking finish behind. In Violet or Black, this girls’ ballet leotard is a lovely option for older children and tweens developing their own dance style. Part of the Mirella Celestia collection by BLOCH, it pairs naturally with a favourite ballet skirt or class shorts.
Mirella Celestia Leotard – Design & Comfort
Short mesh sleeves and a scoop mesh neckline frame the fitted main body. The tonal dot print follows the curved upper edge of the bodice, scattering gently down the front and catching the light with a subtle shimmer. Matching trims keep the sleeves and neckline neatly coordinated.
At the back, three pairs of narrow straps cross over a deep scoop opening, creating the distinctive triple-cross pattern. A curved mesh panel borders the opening and continues beneath the straps, adding another layer of detail to the back design.
The main fabric combines 86% nylon with 14% elastane for stretch, finished with a classic ballet leg line. Violet gives the design a rich purple colour, while Black offers a versatile base for different skirts and warm-up layers. Both colours keep the printed detail tonal, so texture and shape remain the focus.
Make It Her Studio Look
Rich Violet or classic Black: a chance to choose a colour that feels like her.
One Leotard, Different Looks
Add a ballet skirt or dance shorts to suit the class and her favourite way to style it.
Ready for the Whole Dance Day
Pack an easy warm-up layer for the journey to the studio and breaks between classes.
The Spare Hair-Tie Trick
Keep an extra hair tie in the dance bag for quick changes between school and the studio.
Mirella Celestia Dancewear Wear Profile
The Dance World Wear Profile offers a simple guide to fit, feel, movement and coverage, including fabric opacity. Individual fit and feel may vary.
Finding Her Own Studio Style
As dancers grow, choosing what to wear can become a small part of making dance their own. A favourite colour, a skirt they always reach for or a back detail they love can give a familiar class outfit a little personality. Celestia fits into that stage beautifully: something to enjoy choosing, packing and wearing through the weekly rhythm of lessons, rehearsals and time with dance friends.
Product Highlight
✦ The Triple Cross Back
Three pairs of slender straps sweep diagonally across the open back, forming a layered criss-cross pattern above the curved mesh panel. The matching colour keeps the detail elegant and coordinated, giving this leotard a distinctive finish for turns, rehearsals and studio photographs.
Why We Recommend It
A lovely option for older girls and tweens who enjoy choosing dancewear with a little individuality. The tonal print adds subtle shimmer, and the back gives the design a memorable detail. Violet brings a rich colour choice, while Black is easy to coordinate with an existing dance wardrobe.
How Should a Cross-Back Leotard Fit?
Once the leotard is on, check that each strap follows its intended path and lies flat without twisting. Ask your dancer to raise both arms, reach forward and bend gently. The neckline and sleeves should feel comfortable, and the straps should sit against the back without digging in or hanging loose.
Check the fit in movement, as well as standing still. If the body pulls at the shoulders or leg openings, compare her torso girth with the size guide. If the neckline or straps gape, ask our team for advice before choosing extra growing room.
