Bodile women's sizing uses overlapping size ranges from XXS/XS through L/XL. For the most reliable fit, compare your bust, waist, hip and torso-length measurements rather than converting directly from everyday clothing size. For leotards, torso length is particularly useful when deciding between two overlapping sizes.
Bodile Ladies Dancewear Size Chart
Compare bust, waist, hips and torso length to find your best starting size. Bodile sizes intentionally overlap, so more than one size may suit some body measurements.
| Bodile Size | Bust | Waist | Hips | Torso Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| XXS/XS | 70–80 cm 27.5–31.5" | 55–65 cm 21.5–25.5" | 75–85 cm 29.5–33.5" | 52.5–57.5 cm Approx. 20.5–22.5" |
| XS/S | 75–85 cm 29.5–33.5" | 60–70 cm 23.5–27.5" | 80–90 cm 31.5–35.5" | 55–60 cm 21.5–23.5" |
| S/M | 80–90 cm 31.5–35.5" | 65–75 cm 25.5–29.5" | 85–95 cm 33.5–37.5" | 57.5–62.5 cm 22.5–24.5" |
| M/L | 85–95 cm 33.5–37.5" | 70–80 cm 27.5–31.5" | 90–100 cm 35.5–39.5" | 60–65 cm 23.5–25.5" |
| L/XL | 90–100 cm 35.5–39.5" | 75–85 cm 29.5–33.5" | 95–105 cm 37.5–41.5" | 62.5–67.5 cm 24.5–26.5" |
Bodile's size ranges intentionally overlap. If your bust, waist or hips comfortably fit two sizes, use torso length as an important deciding measurement for leotards. A longer torso may feel more comfortable in the larger overlapping size, while a shorter torso may suit the smaller option.
How to Measure for Bodile Dancewear
Measure over underwear or close-fitting dancewear using a flexible tape measure. Stand naturally and keep the tape comfortably against the body without pulling it tight.
Torso Length
Key Leotard MeasurementFollow Bodile's measuring diagram and measure the length of the torso vertically down the body. Keep the tape straight and close to the body without pulling it tight.
Bodile calls this measurement Torso Length. It should not be substituted with the full shoulder-through-crotch girth loop commonly used by some other dancewear brands.
Bust
Measure around the fullest part of the bust, keeping the tape straight and level around the body without compressing it.
Waist
Measure around the natural waist, usually the narrowest part of the torso. Keep the tape level and comfortably close to the body.
Hips
Measure around the fullest part of the hips and seat while standing naturally. Keep the tape level all the way around.
Height
Stand straight without shoes, with feet flat on the floor, and measure from the floor to the top of the head.
Height is not included in Bodile's women's size table, but it can be useful when considering overall body proportions alongside torso length.
Bodile women's sizes are intentionally grouped into overlapping ranges: XXS/XS, XS/S, S/M, M/L and L/XL. This gives dancers flexibility when choosing their preferred fit. Use all four published body measurements together, with torso length particularly useful for fitted leotards. Where two sizes overlap, consider both body length and how close you prefer your dancewear to feel.
Our first BODILE collection is available to pre-order. Orders begin shipping from 6 November 2026.

Description
Bring soft contrast to your studio wardrobe with the Bodile Valentina Nougat Mink long sleeve ballet leotard. Mink-toned velvet, warm beige mesh sleeves and a deep plum-toned body create a muted palette with plenty of texture. A square neckline and curved corset-style panels define the front, while sculpting ECOSCULPT® fabric provides supportive hold through the main body.
Best For: Ballet class • Rehearsals • Sculpting body fit • Sheer sleeve coverage • Soft neutral styling
Why Dancers Love Valentina in Nougat Mink
- A softer studio palette: Rosy beige, mink and deep plum tones bring warmth to a class outfit and coordinate easily with cream or taupe layers.
- Velvet with definition: Curved front panels catch the light, highlighting the bodice shape beneath the square neckline.
- Full sleeves with a light feel: Super-soft SUPRABLIME® mesh gives the arms a sheer, breathable layer while the large back opening keeps the silhouette open.
- A closely held fit: ECOSCULPT® offers supportive compression and strong shape retention for dancers who enjoy a sculpting feel.
ECOSCULPT® Fabric & Mink-Toned Velvet Panelling
The main body contains 78% ECONYL® regenerated nylon and 22% Lycra. Its two-way stretch follows the torso, with pilling resistance and moisture-wicking properties supporting regular class and rehearsal wear.
Mink-toned velvet panels extend from the neckline towards a softly pointed lower edge. Taupe and mauve-brown highlights create depth beside the smooth, darker body. Warm beige mesh sleeves and pale branded neckline elastic introduce a lighter contrast, with signature gold branding completing the finish.
At the back, a gold butterfly clasp fastens at the nape above a large opening. A classic ballet leg and 100% cotton gusset complete this Australian-designed leotard. The sleeves remain sheer, and the back is deliberately open.
Fit & Styling Your Nougat Mink Ballet Leotard
Valentina runs true to size, with a close fit through the body and full-length sleeves. Guide the body into position before easing on the sleeves and fastening the clasp, avoiding pulling on the delicate mesh.
For a flowing rehearsal outfit, pair Nougat Mink with the Julieta full-circle mesh skirt. Choose Mika for a slimmer line with a split and adjustable ruching, or Zara to repeat the velvet texture in a short skirt. Pink ballet tights and cream, taupe or plum warm-ups complement the palette.
Dance World Tip: Keep your skirt and warm-ups simple to let the contrast between the pale sleeves and mink velvet remain visible. Leotards and skirts are sold separately.
