Some ballet leotards become true classics, and the Yumiko Alicia Ballet Leotard is one of them. As Yumiko's best-selling design, Alicia has earned a loyal following among dancers around the world thanks to its elegant lines, exceptional fit and timeless styling. Inspired by the graceful wrap of a traditional kimono, it combines refined tailoring with everyday comfort to create a leotard you'll reach for time and time again.

Yumiko Alicia Ballet Leotard in Cosmo - The Signature Yumiko Design Loved by Dancers Worldwide

Made from Yumiko's signature premium Italian stretch performance fabric, Alicia is designed to move effortlessly with the body while creating beautifully clean ballet lines. The distinctive double V-neckline, inspired by the elegant folds of a kimono, flatters the neckline and shoulders, while carefully tailored seams beneath the bust gently shape the silhouette for a refined, feminine finish. Luxurious Velvet trim adds subtle definition, highlighting the graceful neckline with Yumiko's unmistakable attention to detail.

The rich Cosmo body is perfectly balanced by the soft Frost upper, creating a sophisticated colour combination that feels both modern and timeless. The dramatic open V-back beautifully showcases posture and port de bras, while the high-cut leg line enhances classical ballet proportions. Finished with a comfortable front lining, Alicia offers confidence and support throughout every class, rehearsal and performance.

Whether you're taking your daily ballet class, preparing for an important audition or performing on stage, Alicia delivers the perfect combination of technical performance, luxurious comfort and elegant style. It's easy to see why this has become one of Yumiko's most loved and recognisable leotards.

Size and Fit

Yumiko leotards are designed for a close, streamlined fit. Many dancers find their usual size suitable, particularly if they have a shorter or standard torso and enjoy a supportive second-skin feel.

We recommend sizing up if you have a longer torso, broader shoulders, a fuller bust or simply prefer a little more room through the body. If you're between sizes, choosing the larger size will usually provide the most comfortable fit for long classes and rehearsals.
