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 Children's Dancewear Size Chart

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 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" |

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.

Description
Quiet Detail, Beautiful Ballet Lines
The Mirella Celeste M50005LM boat neck ballet leotard brings curved detailing and an open mesh back to a classic black tank shape. Tonal dots follow the sides of the body, drawing the eye through the waist, while the higher neckline gives the front a clean, composed finish. It's a thoughtful choice for ballet class and rehearsals, with details that become more interesting as you turn.
Mirella Celeste Leotard – Design & Performance
The boat neckline and tank straps frame the upper body, with a plain centre front keeping the curved dot detailing clearly defined. Around the back, sheer dotted mesh panels meet above a deep, shaped cut-out. The curved edges give the opening a distinctive outline, finished with a small Mirella logo beneath.
The main fabric is 86% nylon and 14% elastane, paired with 90% nylon and 10% elastane mesh. Both fabrics provide stretch, while the mesh introduces a lighter, sheer texture through the back. A classic ballet legline completes the silhouette, keeping the overall shape familiar and easy to style for class.
Why Dancers Love Celeste
Dance World Wear Profile
The Dance World Wear Profile highlights how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. Individual fit and feel may vary.
Celeste – Studio Experience
The framed back opening is the detail that gives Celeste its open feel in the studio. The mesh sections curve around the back and meet above the cut-out, leaving the central area uncovered. This lets air reach the skin as class warms up, while the dotted mesh keeps a delicate pattern across the surrounding panels. As you turn through an exercise, those curved edges give the back line a clear, considered shape.
Black – Let the Texture Do the Talking
Black brings the smooth fabric, sheer mesh and tiny raised dots into one tonal palette. Pink tights and a plain ballet skirt create a classical pairing; black tights or relaxed warm-up trousers give Celeste a more understated contemporary look.
Product Highlight – Details Worth a Closer Look
✦ A Thoughtful Take on the Black Ballet Leotard
For days when you want a polished studio outfit, Celeste brings its own finishing details. Keep your layers simple and let the curved dot placement and open back become the focus.
A familiar class essential with a distinctive view from every angle.
