Romantic and beautifully refined, the DellaLo Milano Svetlana DI Ballet Leotard in Violetta captures the delicacy of light through softly layered colour, intricate floral embroidery and graceful Italian design. Part of DellaLo Milano’s celebrated Iconic Collection, Svetlana combines a cool ice-lilac body with sheer embroidered tulle to create a luminous silhouette for studio, audition and stage.

The softly rounded neckline frames the collarbones with classical simplicity, while the shaped sweetheart insert introduces gentle definition beneath the transparent upper bodice. Delicate floral embroidery flows across the shoulders, bodice and sleeves, adding texture and movement without overwhelming the dancer’s natural lines.

From the back, an exceptionally deep scoop opening reveals the shoulder blades and elongates the spine, creating a striking contrast with the refined coverage of the front. Designed for dancers who appreciate poetic detail as much as technical performance, Svetlana DI moves effortlessly through class, intensives, competitions and expressive repertoire.

Design & Performance Features

Refined Round Neckline

The softly rounded neckline creates a clean classical frame across the collarbones, balancing the intricate embroidery with a simple and elegant front silhouette.

Sculpted Sweetheart Insert

A shaped sweetheart panel sits beneath the sheer embroidered bodice, providing graceful coverage and feminine definition while allowing the floral tulle to remain the visual focus.

Embroidered Sheer Sleeves

The lightweight stretch-tulle sleeves finish around the elbow, extending the arm line while allowing unrestricted movement through the shoulders and elbows. Fine embroidered vines catch the light beautifully throughout every port de bras.

Floral Stretch-Tulle Bodice

Delicate tone-on-tone embroidery flows across the upper body, adding depth and luminosity to the Violetta palette without compromising flexibility or breathability.

Dramatic Deep Open Back

The exceptionally low scoop back follows the natural curve of the body, revealing the shoulder blades and elongating the spine for an elegant, stage-ready finish.

Premium Italian Performance Fabric

The smooth ice-lilac body offers excellent stretch and shape recovery, following the dancer closely through pliés, développés, turns and grand allegro without restricting movement.

Lightweight Studio Construction

Flexible mesh and performance fabrics help Svetlana remain breathable and comfortable during long classes, intensive workshops and extended rehearsal schedules.

Fit Note

DellaLo Milano leotards are designed with a close, body-following performance fit. Svetlana DI should sit securely through the torso while allowing the embroidered sleeves to stretch comfortably without pulling across the shoulders or upper arms.

Most dancers can begin with their usual DellaLo Milano size. Those with a longer torso, broader shoulders or a preference for additional body length may feel more comfortable choosing one size larger.

Because this model has an exceptionally deep back, correct torso length is important to keep the neckline and shoulder panels sitting securely. Compare your girth measurement with the DellaLo Milano size chart before selecting your size.

Our sizing advice is intended as a guide only. Individual fit will vary depending on torso length, shoulder width, body proportions and personal preference.
