Brand Spotlight: DecoDancewear


Professional dancer Casey Dalton started deco dancewear when an injury interrupted her ballet career.  Casey hand makes all of the skirts and leotards herself, so they can be specially made to both fit and flatter better than more mass-market options.

sizing
skirts: true to size (look at size chart; very slim dancers will be better accommodated in children’s sizes)
leotards: true to size, chart is very accurate.  These leos run larger than other brands, but true to their own sizing.. (“extra long” option available in all sizes, which is great for long torsos like mine.  I wear an extra small extra long.)
Jillian’s top pick
classic pull-on skirt, Princess seam tank leotard
Jillian’s item to avoid
None to speak of, but production and shipping times can be lengthy (2 months or more in busy times).  However, you are getting the benefit of a custom made piece.
