First off, let me just say—this leotard is a dream! The mesh sleeves give it such an elegant vibe, and the navy blue is *chef’s kiss* perfect for blending into my dance wardrobe.

Fit-wise, I’m usually a medium in leotards, but after reading reviews, I sized up to a large. SO glad I did! It hugs just right without feeling suffocating. The lining is smooth against my skin, and the back buckle? Lifesaver for quick changes between rehearsals.

I wore this during a chilly morning ballet class, and the fabric kept me warm without overheating. The chest pads (which you can remove) are a nice touch—no awkward seams! Though heads up: the color online looked slightly lighter than in person (still gorgeous, though).

Washed it cold and hung to dry—zero shrinkage or fading. For the price? 10/10 would twirl again. Perfect for ballet, yoga, or even layering under skirts for a casual artsy look. Just check that size chart twice!
