BALLET CLOTHES LEOTARDS
I am starting a college ballet class and wondering what should I wear?
I am a bit overweight 150 lbs but hold it mostly in my bust and thighs. I plan to wear leotard and tights at least under my clothing so what can I wear on top to make it a bit more modest. I’ll more than likely be running to my next class directly after my ballet class so it needs to be somewhat appropriate for class. I know you can wear yoga pants and such but can you get those from a dancer store?
Also, what do you wear under the leotard? Do you wear panties and bra?
It’s a good idea to wear a leotard and tights to the first class just in case the teacher is strict. However, it would be extremely rare for non-dance majors to have to adhere to a strict dress code. Mostly, ballet teachers need to see your body shape (which means no button-down mens shirts) and you need to be able to move easily. Therefore, outfits consisting of sports bras + camis on top, along with booty shorts, biker shorts, or yoga pants on the bottom should be just fine. Also, feel free to wear whatever underwear you like as long as no panty parts show. Layering helps, as do thong panties. I’m sure you’ll quickly get a sense of the wide array of options after your first class.
