We have changed the way we size all of our CUFF Products! Instead of standard sizing, CUFF CIRCUMFERENCE is our new way to measure for your Bicep/Wrist/Ankle/Thigh Accessories! This will help allow for a true custom fit.

​

To get your 'Cuff Circumference' measurement... Measure the body part the cuffs are being placed on (Ankle/Wrist/Bicep/Thigh etc) If you require a custom measurement; please leave a note with your order.

SIZING UPDATE

We have made some updates to our sizing page this year! We have added extra thoughts & features to help you create your perfect fit!

 

Please CHOOSE YOUR SIZE CAREFULLY! If you are having trouble determining your size, please send us an email & we can help! Please be sure to follow our measuring instructions carefully, check them twice! We are also happy to work with measurements & cut to your size.

​

If you're measurements don't fit within our size chart, THAT'S OK; we are happy to custom cut for our curvier QUEENS! Just send us an email and we can discuss your needs!

​​

UPDATED SIZE GUIDE AVAILABLE IN CENTIMETRES & INCHES!

However the centimetres are more accurate & our preferred method; however if you send measurements in inches we can convert them to cm.

Things to consider when choosing your size...

We understand that not every BODY is the same, we are grateful to provide dancewear & costumes for anyone who wants to dance! So here are some considerations when choosing your sizing!

​

  • If you are in between sizing; consider whether you prefer your dancewear/costume more firm fitted or with a little comfort room. And think about whether 'adding bling' will restrict the stretch as well, we always recommend adding your bling with the garment stretched on a body board or mannequin.

  • We are happy to custom cut if you need a little more coverage in the bust or butt area!

  • Consider whether your dancer is growing still & how long the garment needs to be worn for. 

  • Waist measurements are the least important when it comes to sizing leotards; ​waist only comes into play if the waist is significantly smaller or larger than the rest of the measurements; we can cut accordingly if required.​

  • We can cut items EXTRA LONG for tall dancers if required. (this is when the dancer's measurements are two sizes bigger in girth eg. Ladies 8 Body - Ladies 12 Length)

  • Focus on your Waist + Buttocks measurement when ordering briefs; we are happy to do the next size up in the waistband if your dancer needs a little more room in the waist. 

  • Fabrics like PVC & Denim are less stretchy than our other stretch fabrics, so we always recommend inflating your measurements or sizing up when choosing this fabric to allow for the adjusted fit. 

  • If your girth measurement is at the lower end of the LONG length and your hip measurements is on the smaller side; you probably don't need to order the LONG Length.

  • We want to do everything we can to create your perfect fit!

SKINTONE MATCH

This can be found on our PERFECT MATCH page!

Our new feature to help everybody match their mesh to their SKIN TONE!

These are just recommendations based on our experience with our customers, if you have any questions/feedback please feel free to email us anytime.

See descriptions on photos to see what skin tones match best with these mesh's! 

If you are having trouble or are worried that it won't match; try a colourful or Black/White Mesh instead! Skintone mesh's are great to use when a specific colour doesn't have a perfectly matching mesh!

Please allow plenty of time for them to arrive prior to ordering your costume; as we cannot guarantee turn around time will be faster if the

swatches are slow at arriving in the post!

Otherwise we are happy to send photos of fabrics together if you need as well!

Purchase via our STYLE UPGRADES Page!
