Dancewear trend: patterned leotards







Leotards with patterns on them (or areas of patterned fabric) are currently popular choices for ballet and jazz.  If you attend a dance school with a relaxed dress code, patterned leotards can be a great way to show your colorful personality while wearing tight fitting attire that makes it easy to see the lines of your body.  Pieces with patterns tend to be a little pricier than their plainer counterparts, so make sure you love the leo before you buy it.  More subdued patterns (like those from Mirella and Ashley Bouder) tend to keep their fashionable status for longer periods of time than brighter ones that may be "out" next season.

If your studio has a stricter dress code, you can still get the patterned look by choosing leotards with embroidered or mesh burnout patterns in black or solid colors.  You can also pair a patterned skirt or top with your plain leo for a milder dip into the patterned trend.
