The waistband is the statement.

The bestselling POPFLEX Crisscross Hourglass® Leggings with Pockets receive a graphic update, with crisp white trim tracing every curve of the asymmetric waistband.

Soft, squat-proof and practical enough for training, they bring considerably more fashion energy than ordinary leggings. Available from Dance World in Black Contrast and Cosmic Navy Contrast.

POPFLEX Crisscross Hourglass® Leggings – Design & Fit

The pinch-free mid-rise waistband crosses into a flattering V before sweeping higher across one hip. White contrast trim emphasises the asymmetry, turning POPFLEX’s signature Hourglass® construction into the defining feature.

Anti-cameltoe construction keeps the front line smooth, while a heart-shaped back seam creates a curve-following finish from behind. The soft stretch fabric provides supportive hold without feeling heavily compressive.

Two deep side pockets keep a phone and smaller essentials close without interrupting the slim leg line.

Dance World stocks the Regular 27-inch (69 cm) inseam only, recommended by POPFLEX for heights of approximately 5'4"–5'7" (162–171 cm).

The Contrast Set, Completed

Pair the leggings with the matching POPFLEX It Girl Bra for Pilates, barre or commercial dance, allowing the white lines to frame the complete silhouette. Add the cropped Call Me Baby Ringer Tee when you want more coverage without hiding the waistband.

Black Contrast creates the sharpest monochrome look, while Cosmic Navy Contrast has a slightly softer, collegiate mood. Both move easily from studio sessions to trainers, an oversized hoodie and everyday plans.

Dance World Fit Tip: Compare both your waist and hip measurements when choosing your size. Sizing down unnecessarily may distort the crossover waistband and place additional tension on the seams. As this is an asymmetric mid-rise design, its exact position will vary with torso length and waist-to-hip proportions.

Dance World Pocket Tip: Phones and small essentials are suitable for everyday wear, but avoid carrying heavy keys or angular objects during repeated dance and workout movement.

Why We Recommend Them: These leggings turn one of POPFLEX’s most recognisable waistbands into the complete visual story, while soft squat-proof fabric and genuinely useful pockets keep them practical for repeat wear.

Contrast waistband detailing

The POPFLEX Crisscross Hourglass® Contrast Leggings have a close, curve-following fit with a soft, supportive active hold.

The asymmetric waistband is officially classified as mid rise. It dips into a V at the front and sweeps higher across one hip, so it will reveal more of the waist than a conventional high-rise legging.

Use your hip measurement as the first sizing reference, then confirm that your waist falls within the same range.

Dance World stocks the Regular length only:
* Regular inseam: Approximately 69cm
* Recommended height: 162–171cm

Height recommendations are a useful starting point, but individual leg proportions also affect where the hem finishes. Measure from the crotch to your preferred ankle position for the most reliable comparison.

If your waist and hip measurements fall into different sizes, prioritise comfortable coverage through the hips and thighs. Avoid sizing down solely for extra shaping, as excessive tension may distort the crossover waistband.

Wash cold with similar colours and hang to dry.

Use a cool iron only if required. Do not bleach; if absolutely necessary, use non-chlorine bleach only.

Wash promptly after contact with fake tan, body makeup or heavily dyed garments, as marks and colour transfer will be more visible on the white trim. Avoid rough surfaces, exposed zips and hook-and-loop fastenings.
