Dancewear: FAQ

How do I ensure the dancewear fits correctly across different regions?

Always ignore generic 'S/M/L' labels and refer strictly to the size chart in centimeters. Dancewear must be snug, so measure your girth, bust, and hips accurately as Asian manufacturing sizes often run smaller than Western standards.

How can I verify the quality of the fabric before purchasing?

Look for listings that specify '4-way stretch' and a high percentage of Spandex or Elastane (typically 15-20%). Check user-uploaded photos in the reviews to see how the fabric reflects light and maintains opacity when stretched.

What indicators suggest a performance costume is durable?

High-quality dancewear features reinforced flatlock seams and double-lining in the bodice. For embellished items, check if sequins or crystals are sewn rather than just glued, which ensures they stay attached during vigorous movement.

Will delicate performance tutus be damaged during shipping?

Professional sellers often use inflatable air-bags or rigid cardboard boxes for stiff tutus. Contact the seller to request 'box packaging' rather than a standard shipping bag to ensure the tulle layers remain flat and uncreased.

Recommendations for buyers

  • Material Recovery and Stretch
    Ensure the garment uses professional-grade nylon-spandex blends that offer high recovery rates, preventing the fabric from sagging after multiple washes or intense routines.
  • Girth Measurement Priority
    For one-piece leotards and unitards, the 'girth' (the loop from shoulder, through the crotch, and back to the shoulder) is the most critical measurement for a gap-free fit.
  • Lining and Skin Comfort
    Verify that the costume includes a soft inner lining, especially for sequined or metallic fabrics, to prevent skin irritation and ensure full opacity under bright stage lights.
  • Embellishment Security
    Opt for 'AB crystals' or 'hot-fix' stones for better stage presence, and prioritize garments where heavy decorations are strategically placed to not hinder movement.
