Yumiko Elli Ballet Leotard in Ginko - Classic Ballet Elegance with a Stunning Deep V-Back

Made from Yumiko's premium stretch performance fabric, Elli is designed to move naturally with the dancer while maintaining a beautifully streamlined silhouette. The softly gathered pinch-front neckline creates a flattering shape across the décolletage, while elegant cap sleeves provide gentle coverage without restricting movement. Finished with luxurious Velvet Buttermilk across the bodice and delicate Mirror trim, every detail reflects Yumiko's signature attention to craftsmanship.

The fresh Ginko body creates a soft, contemporary colour palette, beautifully balanced by the warm buttermilk velvet bodice and subtle pale blue trim. Turn around to reveal the elegant deep V-back, designed to highlight posture, strengthen classical lines and create a beautifully open silhouette. The high-cut leg enhances leg length, while the front lining provides additional comfort and confidence throughout every class and rehearsal.

Whether you're refining technique at the barre, preparing for coaching sessions or working towards your next audition, Elli offers the perfect combination of timeless elegance, technical performance and everyday comfort. It's a leotard designed to move effortlessly with you while looking beautifully polished from every angle.

Size and Fit

Yumiko leotards are designed for a close, streamlined fit. Many dancers find their usual size suitable, particularly if they have a shorter or standard torso and prefer a supportive second-skin feel.

We recommend sizing up if you have a longer torso, broader shoulders, a fuller bust, or prefer a little more room through the body. If you are between sizes, choosing the larger size will usually provide a more comfortable fit for long classes and rehearsals.
