Dancing clothes

Dance opens the soul, helps to find new strength and gain confidence. Professionals in this field advise that when dancing, you need to forget about all the pressing problems, bad mood and feel only your body. Unfortunately, with the wrong equipment for a dancer, this becomes almost impossible, which means that it is important to be careful when choosing clothes for dancing.

Dancewear is divided into wardrobe:

• for training;
• for performances.

Rehearsal clothing should be made of natural fabrics with the addition of elastane or high-quality synthetic materials.

A gymnastic leotard is a universal type of clothing for training. This tight-fitting outfit makes it easy to follow your every move and correct inaccuracies.

If the type of dance you have chosen contrasts too much with a swimsuit, you can stop at the top and shorts or trousers. At the same time, the top should not have sleeves, because the freedom of the arms will provide complete freedom of movement. Suitable for training and flared skirts above the knees. The last option is necessarily complemented by a comfortable bodysuit.

Rhythmic gymnastics requires the accuracy of every movement and wave of the hand, which is why it is so important to frame your body with quality tight-fitting clothing. These can be short shorts with a top, one-piece short sleeve T-shirts and overalls. One-piece models are especially appreciated by dancers, because with the right size selection, the comfort of the overalls is guaranteed.

For gymnastics, models of discreet shades without excessive prints are suitable. Juicy colors are best left for stage outfits.

Attire for performances, it is worth saying, can be compared with works of art. They not only fit the body, but also reveal the essence of the dance, its mood. As a rule, a gymnast's outfit consists of a leotard with or without sleeves. Additionally, a skirt can be used.

Beautiful and stylish clothes for performances are one of the important components of the dance. It should be selected depending on the type of dance, its history and place of origin. So, dance clothes such as a leotard complemented by a skirt are suitable for choreography, while for hip-hop this will be absolutely inappropriate.

Women's dancewear is diverse and subject to fashion trends and trends. So, stylish jumpsuits are in fashion now. They are used in such modern directions as Pole dance, body ballet, gymnastics. However, professional clothing for girls who enchant with the movements of their body does not end there. For example, a significant niche is occupied by costumes for ballroom dancing, which captivate with their femininity and beauty.

The Latin dance program captivates the audience with the amplitude of movements, clarity and rhythm.Most Latin American dances are fast paced, so dresses don't have long, puffy hemlines. Each movement here is emphasized by fringe, flounces, ruffles, cuts on a tight-fitting dress. It is worth saying that the fringe not only “dances” with its owner, but also hides some imperfections in her workmanship. So, if the movement lacks scope and amplitude, the fringe skillfully copes with this problem.

One of the varieties of Latin American dances is the tango. The sensuality of the dance is emphasized not only by graceful movements, but also by bright robes. Red dresses with slits on the dress or lush frills effectively emphasize the precise movements of the dancer.

Another type of latin is salsa. Mobile and bright, it embodies the most revealing outfits. These can be dresses with fringes or suits consisting of a bodice richly decorated with sequins, rhinestones and flowers and a short skirt in the same color scheme.

Traditional Indian dance has many subspecies, each of which has its own outfit. For European peoples, India is always associated with bright colors, trousers and long skirts. This kind of stylized costume is incredibly popular for performances.

The costume includes a top decorated with rhinestones and sequins. Legs are covered with narrow harem pants of white or red color. A wide skirt is worn over the trousers to match the top. A scarf and a headdress captivates with its luxury.

Transparent clothes for Indian dance look seductive and mysterious. Such a robe consists of a top and a sari made of translucent thin material, richly decorated with embroidery.

Incredibly beautiful outfits for Spanish dances.Flamenco robes are especially colorful. Women dressed for this dance look like birds of paradise showing off their luxurious plumage.

Long dresses fit the hips, while the hem, on the contrary, is distinguished by splendor and an abundance of ruffles. The head is decorated with large flowers woven into the hair, and the shoulders are often complemented by a colorful fringed scarf.

The embodiment of brightness and originality is the clothes for the Brazilian carnival. Recognizable feather crowns, wings and sexy mini-dresses or swimsuits have conquered and left no country indifferent.

It is worth saying that rooster, ostrich and peacock feathers are used to create these unique outfits. As a result, the costume looks really luxurious, and the feathers of exotic birds radiate natural beauty and radiance.

It is important to approach the choice of stage and costume for rehearsals responsibly, because the state of the dancer, and hence the dance itself, directly depends on this.

Here, as in any sportswear, preference is given to synthetic fabrics. However, if the loads at rehearsals are small, you can get by with cotton with the addition of elastane.

At high loads, the disadvantages of natural fabrics are obvious:

• absorb sweat;
• become heavy;
• stick to the body;
• create unaesthetic sweat stains;
• are pulled out.

Experts advise choosing models for dancing made of polyester and polyamide. This material is distinguished by its special strength, endurance to numerous washings and long-term preservation of its shape.

You should also pay attention to the presence of elastane in the composition. It provides maximum fit to the body, and therefore control over every movement.

Refuse cheap synthetics, because after the first wash, its appearance will be irrevocably damaged. In addition, as a rule, low-quality clothing has rough and sloppy seams that can rub the skin. When interacting with sweat, irritation will definitely appear on the body.

Dancewear should show the beauty of the body, so taking a larger or smaller size is highly discouraged, even when talking about a costume for a child. Hanging shoulders will never create elegance and grace of movements. In turn, the smaller size of the swimsuit cuts into the skin, rubs it and is even able to form folds on the ideal athletic figure.

The color of clothes for training sessions and stage performances is strikingly different. So, for rehearsals, dancers purchase costumes in black, dark blue and brown tones. In this color scheme, the silhouette becomes more defined, in addition, the outfit does not distract from many hours of honing skills. The low-key rule applies more to young talents.

For the stage, the colors of the costumes can be very different. So, popular colors include aquamarine and turquoise, rich pink in combination with white or gray. Perfectly athletic figure looks in black tone. At the same time, the costume itself can be richly decorated with rhinestones and hand embroidery.

Speaking about the freedom of dance, one should not forget about the rules of the stage costume, which has its limitations.

So, the rules of the tracksuit of the Dance Sports Union of Russia read:

• décolleté and bikini areas should be made of opaque fabric. In this case, the bra cups must be at a distance of at least 5 cm from each other;
• waist area can be covered with any fabric;
• thongs made of lace, guipure are prohibited on stage;
• despite the fact that many dance costumes are referred to as leotards, they should not be similar to everyday models and underwear;
