I get asked many a time, “Where did you find that beautiful leotard?” or “Where did you find that gorgeous ballet skirt?”
It’s no secret that some of the best ballet attire is found overseas and I found American websites have a lot to offer. But there are some great websites to find lovely ballet attire!
AUSTRALIA:
PW Dance & Sportswear (look at the dancewear catalogue and email /call then and you can order over the phone)
WORLDWIDE:
US:
(Please note some websites don’t ship to Australia, so if you have a friend in the US whom you can send the order to, it will make it easier. Alternatively, you can “hire” post boxes in America where your parcel gets shipped to and it can then be posted to Australia.) Also, the postage from US to Australia can be a little pricey, but very much worth it if you end up with a spectacular leotard that no one else here has!
Discount Dance (GREAT website with TONNES of leotards (very unique ones!) and also larger sizing! Also a great variety of skirts.
BLOCH world (US version of Bloch has different seasonal wear compared to us and also runs in a size XL)
Revolution Dance (check out the AMAZING costumes for performances!)
OTHER COUNTRIES:
And also don’t forget the classic Ebay and Etsy carry some GREAT ballet skirts as well!
https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/LoneReedDesigns (This lady makes some FABULOUS leotards! She opens her website on the first of every month, you pick what you want from a variety of fabrics and a variety of styles and she hand makes them and sends them to you!)
Check out this cute bag whilst you are at it!
