SIZING
The sizing on our wrap around ballet skirts are determined by the width on the waist. The UK sizes are based on the most common store dress size measurements and are as follows:
Size Chart (UK)
20-21" = Size 2 22-23" = Size 4
24-25" = Size 6 26-27" = Size 8
28-29" = Size 10 30-31" = Size 12
32-33" = Size 14
Satin Ribbon: High quality Berrisford or Shindo ribbon, which elegantly ties and tumbles down at the back. It will not fray, stretch or knot at the first instance like many on the market!
Velvet Elastic: This is our most luxurious tie. It goes especially well with our 'Burnout chiffons' (Check fabric page) which all feature velvet in their designs.
Elastic: Our comfortable elastic is easily the most popular and comes in multiple colours and shades to match every skirt. This tie will assure that your skirt stays in place and won't move around while you're dancing. This is especially good for partnering work.
Slim Cut VS Regular Cut
Slim Cut = Less fabric so that the skirt falls closer to the body and creates a slimmer silouette. ( a favourite among professional dancers )
Regular Cut = A cut with more fabric means you have more space over the hips and a floatier effect on the skirt. ( ideal for an hourglass figure or for those with smaller waists )
Our fabrics are designed to move and flow with you and so we use only the best quality CHIFFON, GEORGETTE, LYCRA , MESH, VELVET and DEVORE to achieve this.
The hems of the skirts are beautifully over-locked in threads that match the ribbons. You may request to have a specific colour of ribbon/elastic if you desire.
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS
Our skirts are strong and durable and can be happily washed with conditioner at 30 degrees in the washing machine in a washing bag (this prevents the ribbons from getting tangled up with everything else). Once washed, shake and hang out to dry as there is no need to iron.
