The DellaLo Milano Gaia DI Scotland is a sophisticated camisole ballet leotard that combines rich natural colour with delicate couture-inspired detailing. Its deep forest-green body creates a beautifully clean foundation, while the floral viscose lace bodice introduces texture, transparency and an elegant sense of depth.

Fine powder-pink trims soften the darker Scotland palette and bring a subtle feminine contrast to the neckline and straps. The imperial-cut bodice gently defines the line beneath the bust, while the crossed camisole straps create a polished back detail that highlights the shoulders and encourages a beautifully open posture.

Part of the DellaLo Icons collection, Gaia DI is handcrafted in Italy from premium stretch dance fabrics and designed with a close yet comfortable silhouette for classical and contemporary classes, auditions, competitions, workshops and performance. 

Design & Performance

Gaia DI Scotland balances a strong, dramatic colour palette with delicate feminine detailing. The forest-green base wraps the body in a smooth, streamlined line, while the floral lace bodice creates a refined contrast of texture and transparency across the upper body.

The imperial-cut construction defines the shape beneath the bust without adding bulk, helping to create a clean and beautifully proportioned silhouette. Fine powder-pink trims trace the neckline and straps, introducing a soft flash of colour that brightens the deep green body and gives the design its distinctive finish.

At the back, slender crossed straps frame the shoulder blades and enhance posture without restricting movement. The close-fitting stretch construction follows the dancer’s natural lines while remaining comfortable through port de bras, floor work and demanding choreography.

Dance World Verdict

Gaia DI Scotland is ideal for dancers who prefer a sleek camisole line with subtle couture detail, a defined bodice and a colour palette that feels rich, elegant and highly individual.

Gaia DI Scotland is handcrafted in Italy using eco warp-knit fabric, viscose lace and technical warp-knit fabric. The stretch body offers a close, comfortable fit, while the floral lace adds refined texture across the bodice. As with every DellaLo Milano garment, small variations may occur as part of the artisanal production process.

Overall Fit
DellaLo Milano leotards are designed with a close, professional ballet fit that follows the body’s natural lines while allowing freedom of movement.

Torso Length
Dancers with longer torsos or those between sizes may prefer sizing up for additional body length and comfort.

Upper Body
The floral lace bodice has a slightly more structured feel than plain stretch mesh, while the fine camisole straps keep the shoulders open and unrestricted.

Model Fit Note
Gaia DI has a defined fit through the upper bodice due to its imperial-cut construction. Dancers with a fuller bust, broader upper body or longer torso may find the larger size more comfortable when between sizes.

Please note: Our sizing advice is intended as a guide. Individual fit depends on torso length, body proportions and personal preference.
