REGULAR vs SLIM CUT - What’s the difference?
REGULAR CUT - Our classic design.
• The regular cut employs a generous amount of fabric, intended to create layers of lovely ripples to catch the air as you move.
• It has been carefully shaped to keep all the *important areas* covered whilst you move.
😉
• Ideal for women with a more hourglass shape and greater hip to waist ratio ⌛️ AND for those who want lots of lovely, billowy ripples in their skirt.
SLIM CUT - Our returning guest. 🤩
• The slim cut is shaped flatly across the front and floatier at the back.
• Younger dancers often prefer the slim cut.
• Teachers love it too as it allows a clear view of placement and alignment. Nowhere to hide!
• Designed for more athletic looking ballerinas with a straighter figure and less of a waist to hip ratio.

I want you to be completely happy with your purchase, so please let me know if you feel otherwise and I will always ensure to get the right skirt for you and I promise to answer back the same day !!
WASHING INSTRUCTIONS
My skirts are strong and durable and can be happily washed at 30 degrees in the washing machine in a washing bag (this prevents the ribbons from getting tangled up with everything else). Once washed, shake and hang out to dry as there is no need to iron.
