Bodile women's sizing uses overlapping size ranges from XXS/XS through L/XL. For the most reliable fit, compare your bust, waist, hip and torso-length measurements rather than converting directly from everyday clothing size. For leotards, torso length is particularly useful when deciding between two overlapping sizes.
Bodile Ladies Dancewear Size Chart
Compare bust, waist, hips and torso length to find your best starting size. Bodile sizes intentionally overlap, so more than one size may suit some body measurements.
| Bodile Size | Bust | Waist | Hips | Torso Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| XXS/XS | 70–80 cm 27.5–31.5" | 55–65 cm 21.5–25.5" | 75–85 cm 29.5–33.5" | 52.5–57.5 cm Approx. 20.5–22.5" |
| XS/S | 75–85 cm 29.5–33.5" | 60–70 cm 23.5–27.5" | 80–90 cm 31.5–35.5" | 55–60 cm 21.5–23.5" |
| S/M | 80–90 cm 31.5–35.5" | 65–75 cm 25.5–29.5" | 85–95 cm 33.5–37.5" | 57.5–62.5 cm 22.5–24.5" |
| M/L | 85–95 cm 33.5–37.5" | 70–80 cm 27.5–31.5" | 90–100 cm 35.5–39.5" | 60–65 cm 23.5–25.5" |
| L/XL | 90–100 cm 35.5–39.5" | 75–85 cm 29.5–33.5" | 95–105 cm 37.5–41.5" | 62.5–67.5 cm 24.5–26.5" |
Bodile's size ranges intentionally overlap. If your bust, waist or hips comfortably fit two sizes, use torso length as an important deciding measurement for leotards. A longer torso may feel more comfortable in the larger overlapping size, while a shorter torso may suit the smaller option.
How to Measure for Bodile Dancewear
Measure over underwear or close-fitting dancewear using a flexible tape measure. Stand naturally and keep the tape comfortably against the body without pulling it tight.
Torso Length
Key Leotard MeasurementFollow Bodile's measuring diagram and measure the length of the torso vertically down the body. Keep the tape straight and close to the body without pulling it tight.
Bodile calls this measurement Torso Length. It should not be substituted with the full shoulder-through-crotch girth loop commonly used by some other dancewear brands.
Bust
Measure around the fullest part of the bust, keeping the tape straight and 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 Bodile's women's size table, but it can be useful when considering overall body proportions alongside torso length.
Bodile women's sizes are intentionally grouped into overlapping ranges: XXS/XS, XS/S, S/M, M/L and L/XL. This gives dancers flexibility when choosing their preferred fit. Use all four published body measurements together, with torso length particularly useful for fitted leotards. Where two sizes overlap, consider both body length and how close you prefer your dancewear to feel.

Description
Description
The Bodile Sofia Twilight Obsidian long sleeve ballet leotard combines a muted deep plum body with smoky black mesh and corset-inspired front lines. Sheer sleeves and a deep scoop back bring lightness to the rich palette, creating a studio outfit with ballet tights alone. Sofia runs short through the torso, so compare your measurements with the Bodile size chart before choosing.
Best For: Ballet class • Rehearsals • Dark tonal outfits • Sheer long sleeves • Simple studio styling
Why Dancers Love Sofia in Twilight Obsidian
- Subtle depth of colour: Black mesh layers over muted plum, giving the front a richer finish while keeping the panel lines visible.
- Easy to wear simply: The shaped bodice, full-length sleeves and scoop back provide plenty of detail alongside your usual ballet tights.
- Light mesh sleeves: Fine stretch mesh follows the arms with a softly sheer finish, balancing the deeper colour through the body.
- Built-in underbust support: A separate panel combines supportive elastic and self-fabric lining within the otherwise unlined main body.
Smoky SUPRABLIME® Mesh & Soft LEOPREME® Fabric
A SUPRABLIME® mesh overlay traces corset-inspired lines across the front. Its gently curved outer neckline sits above the straighter underlying bodice. Mesh continues into the sleeves and beneath the deep back opening, with a small gold emblem completing the design.
The main body uses LEOPREME® - 80% nylon and 20% Lycra. Its soft-touch, demi-matte finish combines supportive stretch with shape retention, pilling resistance and moisture-wicking properties.
The main body is unlined; self-fabric lining is concentrated in the separate underbust support panel. The neckline, sleeves and mesh back remain intentionally sheer. A classic ballet leg line and 100% cotton gusset complete this Australian-designed leotard.
Sofia Sizing Advice & Studio Styling
This style runs short through the body. Bodile recommends sizing up for a longer torso. Check your measurements against the size chart, then raise both arms during fitting to make sure the shoulders and neckline sit comfortably without pulling.
Wear Twilight Obsidian with ballet tights to keep the layered front in focus, or add a plain black or tonal plum skirt for rehearsal. A cream wrap softens the dark palette, while charcoal layers keep the outfit understated. For another silhouette, explore Valentina’s velvet panelling or Ophelia’s adjustable camisole straps.
Dance World Tip: Ease the leotard into position using the main body, then settle the sleeves gently. Avoid pulling on the delicate mesh when dressing.
