Repetto adult dancewear is designed to be worn closely against the body so the dancer's line and movement remain clearly visible. Repetto advises choosing two sizes larger than your usual size for its adult dancewear sizing. Use the body measurements below as an additional guide when selecting your size.

Repetto's adult dancewear sizing is intentionally close-fitting. The brand currently recommends choosing two sizes larger than your usual size so the garment remains fitted while still allowing comfortable movement. We recommend comparing your body measurements with the Repetto chart rather than relying on everyday clothing size alone.
How to Measure for Repetto 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.

Height
Stand straight without shoes, with your feet flat on the floor. Measure vertically from the floor to the top of the head.
Height is particularly useful when checking the overall proportion and length of fitted dancewear.
Chest
Key MeasurementMeasure around the fullest part of the chest, passing the tape underneath the arms and keeping it straight and level around the body.
Keep the tape comfortably close without compressing the chest.
Waist
Measure around your natural waist, usually the narrowest part of the torso. Keep the tape level and comfortably against the body without pulling it tight.
Hips
Measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat while standing naturally. Keep the measuring tape level all the way around the body.
Inside Leg
Stand straight with your legs relaxed. Measure from the top of the inner thigh down the inside of the leg to the ankle.
This measurement is particularly useful when choosing trousers, leggings, unitards and other full-length dancewear.
Repetto dancewear is designed to sit close to the dancer's body and emphasise clean ballet lines. The official adult dancewear guide advises choosing two sizes larger than your usual size. Because different garments can vary in stretch, construction and coverage, use this chart as your starting point and always follow any additional model-specific fit advice shown on the individual product page.

Flowy When You Want Them. Cinched When You Don't.
The best warm-up pieces are the ones that give you options.
The Repetto High-Waisted Wide-Leg Dance Pants start with a beautifully relaxed silhouette - soft through the leg, comfortable at the waist and fluid enough to move easily through the studio. Then an adjustable drawstring at each hem lets you change the shape completely, from long and flowing to softly gathered around the ankles.
Wear them wide for travel, Pilates or an easy dancer-off-duty look, then cinch the hems when you want something more practical for warm-up and rehearsal. One pair, two moods.
Repetto High-Waisted Wide-Leg Dance Pants – Design & Details
The high-rise waistband sits comfortably at the waist, with a wide elastic construction that keeps the trousers secure without interrupting the relaxed feel of the silhouette.
Through the leg, the cut stays deliberately loose and fluid. The soft viscose-rich jersey drapes rather than feeling bulky, making these feel closer to an elegant studio trouser than a traditional sweatpant. The clever detail is at the hem. Adjustable elastic drawstrings let you leave the legs long and wide or gather them closer around the ankles depending on what you're doing.
Why You'll Love It
Why We Recommend It
That adjustable hem makes these far more useful than a standard wide-leg trouser. Leave them flowing when you want an elegant, relaxed silhouette, then gather the ankles when you're warming up, stretching or simply don't want fabric around the feet.
Dance World Tip: Wear them long with a fitted leotard or Pilates top to balance the volume, then cinch the hems with ballet flats for a softer traditional warm-up look.
The viscose fabric is another reason we like them. They move with much more fluidity than fleece joggers, so the overall look stays soft and dancer-like rather than sporty.
The Repetto Mood
Long legs. Soft fabric. Drawstrings pulled only when you need them.
This is studio dressing with options - polished enough to wear wide and relaxed, practical enough to cinch up for warm-up, and comfortable enough to keep on long after class.
Wide or Cinched?
Leave them wide: for Pilates, travel, contemporary class or an easy studio-to-street silhouette.
Gather the hems: for ballet warm-up, stretching or whenever you want the trouser sitting safely away from the feet.
Our favourite: wide through most of the day, cinched just before class. Best of both.
