Body: Crushed stretch velvet for a subtle, stage-ready sheen; smooth against the skin with excellent recovery.
Trim: Sleek contrast binding that frames the neckline and back.
Feel: Soft, breathable, and flexible, moves with you through full range of motion.

Fit: Streamlined, performance-snug. Designed to hug without restricting, ideal for class, rehearsal, and stage.
Torso length: If you have a long torso, consider sizing up one for extra length (the open criss-cross back sits best when the straps aren’t overstretched).
Leg line & coverage: Moderate leg line with refined coverage, clean under tights, flattering on its own.
Straps: Fixed camisole straps; secure for jumps and partnering.

How to measure (pro tip): Use a soft tape to measure girth (shoulder, through the legs, back to the same shoulder). Girth is the most important number for leotards, if you’re between sizes on girth, choose the larger size.

Wash: Hand wash cold with mild detergent.
Dry: Lay flat or hang to dry, do not tumble dry.
Heat/Iron: Avoid heat and do not iron velvet (it can crush the pile permanently).
Bleach/Fabric softener: No bleach or softeners, they can damage stretch fibers and dull the sheen.
