Dance World Expert Advice

Why We Love It

Denise is one of Yumiko's most elegant designs. The luxurious velvet bodice adds just the right amount of texture while the clean silhouette keeps the overall look beautifully timeless.

Perfect For

Dancers who appreciate refined styling, flattering seam lines and premium fabrics, as well as anyone looking for a sophisticated leotard that stands out through craftsmanship rather than bold decoration.

Dance World Tip

Denise fits noticeably smaller than most Yumiko styles. We recommend choosing one size larger than you would normally wear to achieve the best balance of comfort and performance.

Choosing the Right Yumiko Leotard

If you love elegant camisole styles with refined detailing, Denise is an excellent choice. The sculpted princess seams flatter the figure beautifully, while the velvet bodice adds a touch of luxury without compromising freedom of movement. We strongly recommend sizing up, as this style runs smaller than most Yumiko leotards.

Denise Fit Note
Denise runs significantly smaller than most Yumiko styles.
We strongly recommend sizing up from your usual Yumiko size, particularly if you have a longer torso, broader shoulders or fuller bust.

If you are between sizes, choosing the larger size will generally provide a more comfortable professional fit while maintaining Yumiko's elegant silhouette.
