A studio warm-up, with a beautifully elongated finish.

The BLOCH Elena Cable Knit Flared Pants combine the comfort of traditional ballet knitwear with a more polished, leg-lengthening silhouette. Textured cotton brings cosy warmth, while vertical cable detailing and softly flared hems create an elegant finish.

A deep ribbed roll-over waistband allows the rise and waist position to be adjusted, making Elena easy to layer over leotards, tights and fitted dancewear. Available from Dance World in versatile Grey Marle.

Best For: Ballet warm-ups • Rehearsal breaks • Stretching • Travel to class • Relaxed studio-to-street wear

BLOCH Elena Cable Knit Flared Pants – Design & Warm-Up Details

Part of BLOCH’s Opulence collection, Elena is made from 100% cotton for soft, natural warmth during cooler studio days and time spent between rehearsals.

The wide ribbed waistband can be folded to the preferred depth, allowing dancers to adjust where the trousers sit and how much coverage they provide around the waist. With no separate fastening or drawstring, the finish remains smooth and comfortable.

Richly textured knit and vertical cable detailing draw the eye down the legs, creating definition and length. The full-length cut sits closer through the upper leg before opening into a soft flare at the hem.

Finished in Grey Marle, Elena coordinates naturally with black leotards, neutral dancewear and the BLOCH Opulence knitwear collection.

Studio Layers, Refined

At the Barre: Pull Elena over a leotard and ballet tights during warm-up. The adjustable waistband provides comfortable coverage, while the closer upper leg keeps the silhouette streamlined.

Add a Softer Contrast: Wear them with the BLOCH Delilah Cable Knit Sweater in Candy Pink for a gentle ballet-inspired colour combination.

Dance World Fit Tip: Elena has a full-length flared leg. Folding the waistband adjusts the rise but does not substantially shorten the overall leg length. Petite dancers should check that the hem clears the floor and does not sit beneath the heel during movement. These are knitted warm-up trousers rather than fitted technical leggings.

Why We Recommend Them: An unusually elegant warm-up trouser combining genuine studio comfort with the long, polished silhouette of a softly flared knitted pant.

The BLOCH Elena is designed as a full-length knitted warm-up trouser with a closer shape through the upper leg and a soft flare towards the hem.

Use the BLOCH ladies’ apparel waist and hip measurements as the main size guide. The ribbed waistband can be rolled to adjust the rise and waistband depth, but the correct size remains important for a comfortable fit through the hips and legs.

The waistband does not substantially change the overall leg length. Petite dancers should check that the hem clears the floor and does not sit underneath the heel, particularly when the trousers are worn without shoes.

Elena is intended as a warm-up and layering piece rather than a fitted technical legging.

Always follow the care instructions printed on the garment label.
