I think this leotard is okay. I got it in black, and the material seems to get bunchy around the waist when I wear it. The sweetheart neckline comes a bit lower than what I typically feel comfortable with, and it is difficult to put a bra with it if you wanted to with the whole back is mesh. Other people may like it, but it just was not very flattering on me.
Fit: True to size

Anonymous08/20/2018FITS STRANGELY
I love the way this leotard looks, but whenever I put my arms into first position or above, the sleeves slide up and the elastic sort of pinches until i pull them back down. I got a size petite and returned it for a medium. the sleeves are still a bit tight, but not enough to really bother me. there is also a little hiccup in one of the seams that runs down the front, so it just looks little funky in one spot. one of the biggest things that bothered me about this leotard though was that the crotch is very wide! whenever I'm wearing the leotard, there is a bunch of extra material that hangs. Other than those things though, i really love the look of this leotard.

Oh man. This leotard is beautiful and SO COMFY! I sized up a little bit because I lift weights and another reviewer mentioned that if you have buff arms, you should size up. I think the smaller size would have fit as well, but I'm loving the tiny bit of extra room in Size Large and how long it is in the torso (I'm 5'8"). It's so comfy that I wore it for three hours after my circus rehearsal and didn't even think to change -- something that has never happened to me before while wearing a leotard. P.S. The golden color is gorgeous, but don't expect it to be all turmeric like it looks in the photo. It's more of a tawny gold.

I wanted a staple black leo that had a small detail to make it a little unique and this one is very cute. Fits true to size too which is a great plus. Just keep in mind what kind of bra you might be wearing with this because of the nude mesh

Tegan06/18/2014ITCHY ARMS
The elastic around the arms is irritating, itchy and doesn't stay in place well. Beautiful, though not so great for long studio days. Buy it and save it for short classes, auditions, etc.
I am a stylist and working as a costume designer I bought 20 of these for the cast. I can admit, I was very nervous for the fit, but by using the sizing chart and the measurements I got it right. They fitted perfectly. I definitely would recommend this!

NadiaDances10/23/2013CUTE LEO!
I needed a black leotard for my ballet and contemporary classes and I co-teach 4 other classes so I thought this one would be great! It is very very cute! I love it but the mesh is very shear, You cannot wear a bra with this leo unless you get a stick on or a backless bra with clear straps or no straps. I am a 34A or a 32B so I barley have anything for boobs and I'm not used to going without. I am going to get a stick on to try with this. It has a shelf bra in it so it does have support but my boobs are barley big enough for the shelf to do anything for me but I'm no comfortable to go without cuz I still have a little something hahaha! Also the shelf bra moves around a bit, maybe its cuz I don't quite fill it out but It is a very very cute leotard and I recommend it to anyone, big or small ;D

lesmi07/02/2013RUNS A TAD SMALL, NOT SUPPORTIVE
This leotard was very flattering on my large bust (34D) and skinny body. Though the inside bra covers my entire breasts, and leg cuts fit me not too snug and not too loose, the arm holes ride up my armpits a little. I bought a large, which I needed for the chest size. So I think the arm's material and seam just don't have much give in them. I would definitely recommend this for girls with big busts if they are comfortable in unsupportive leotards! It is not one you can pull off a bra underneath.

danceforever567806/29/2013PRETTY DESIGN!
I have this leotard in black and it looks so cool. It gives the illusion of wearing a strapless leotard, except its not! The mesh is soft and stretchy, I was worried about it being too low, but it isnt! I'm 5'2 and 126 lbs. and the medium fits well.

Dancinnat06/28/2013GREAT LEOTARD!
This is my go-to audition leotard. It is pretty comfortable and breathes well. The arm holes can be a bit snug, but other than that, I love it. The leg holes don't ride up, and it doesn't fall down when you dance. The threads have begun to come out a bit on the binding at the neck, but I wear it all the time, so it's almost to be expected.

catherinedanae06/09/2013COMFORTABLE AND DIFFERENT LEO
I really liked how this leotard looked online, especially the beautiful bronze one. But, unlike how gold it appeared online, the one I recieved in the mail was darker. I got it in a timely manner and it fits well. I am 5'3'' and 126 and the medium was just right.

Snowdrop402/20/2013
I received this leotard in black. I really loved the look of it. However, there is a drawback in comfort to this unique style. The sleeves of the leotard can kind of cut into the inside of my arms, but it isn't super noticeable when you're busy dancing. I'm an A cup, 105 pounds, and about 5'3''. I got the small, and it fits perfectly.
I bought this leotard in medium black ( 5'7 130 pounds) and its very pretty and fits well my only complaint would be that the arm holes are a little tight so its a little uncomfortable otherwise pretty leotard.

Dancerdancer02/15/2013LOVE LOVE LOVE!
So I read the reviews before purchasing and many people said it ran large! Regardless I ordered my normal size (small) and it got perfect! I have black and bronze! I love the black one but I hate the color of the bronze. It is more of a brownish yellow than a bronze but over all it is so comfortable and cute! Love it!

Mara01/23/2013IT'S A YES!
I ordered the eggplant one which is more purple than eggplant but it's pretty. I'm 5'6" and 115 lbs. and small chested (34C) and the small fits perfectly. Fabric is comfortable and moves with you. No concerns about the top staying in place.

Anonymouss01/02/2013BEAUTIFUL BUT TOO BIG
I am usually a size small, so I ordered a small in this leotard which turned out to be too large. Also, the leg holes go a bit low, so it makes your legs appear shorter. It is a beautiful leotard with a few alterations.

balletbot1212/12/2012SUPER CUTE! COLOR A LITTLE DECIEVING....
I got this leo that I have wanted FOREVER for my 13th birthday on Sunday.... I thought the bronze would have a little more orange to it than brown, but its still cute. Also, i think this leo is made for long torsoed (is that a word?) dancers... Im 4'10 and 64 lbs and the Adult Petite fits me almost perfectly!

Lalena11/24/2012GORGEOUS!
You don't have to be on stage to wear this is a gorgeous leotard. This is a perfect leotard for all shapes & sizes. Nothing is more elegant then 'sleeveless" - makes me feel like I'm wearing an evening gown. My only complaint is, the fabric is a little slippery. But the color is gorgeous & holds up well.

YuYu09/03/2012VERY ELEGANT AND COMFY! :)
I ordered a medium in purple. I am 167cm/5ft6 and 55kg/121lbs. The leotard fits perfectly, but feels a tiny bit large, however it is not to the point where you can see that it's large.
I have read that there were problems with the armholes being a little tight, but I did not find this a problem. However, the material of the armhole is not too stretchy so I would recommend a size up if you have large/built arms.
The mesh yoke area is durable, although I would be careful of nails snagging in it while wearing it or taking it off.
The seam which runs from the top of the bust all the way down to the leg hole gives an illusion of a slimmer torso, so this is nice.
I think this leotard is very elegant, stylish and is unique. It is a leotard that is different from most leotards I see lately (mostly leotard is 'original' by having lots of straps or different designs on the back, but I have never seen this kind of design before :D). I 100% recommend this leotard if you are looking for a leotard that not many people have. It was a great purchase (very affordable too), so I think I will order another in the yellow! ^_^
Thanks DDS :)

Swani07/09/2012BUY THIS!
This leotard is beautiful and so comfortable! I took what one of the other reviews had into consideration...about the arm holes being a little tight, so I ordered a size up than my usual (only because I have broad shoulders). For this reason, the leotard isn't as tight as some of my others, but pretty true to size, very supportive and comfortable. I just hope the mesh is as durable as it seems and feels. By far the best purchase I have made through Discount Dance :) Might need to order another

Mckayla06/20/2012VERY NICE
this leotard is really nice and flattering because its tight enough so that it gives compression but not so tight that it highlights every imperfection. its also very comfortable and it hides my boobs because theyre kind of big. i would recommend it :)

i like the style of this leotard but the armhole elastics are not very stretchy. The mesh on the yoke has developed a run already. I probably should have ordered a size up. I am typically a small but have more developed back and arms from acrobatics..

Data 01/24/2015 California Age: 18 to 24 What does the fabric feel like?
Does it feel similar to other Natalie leotards (like the one with the strappy elastic back)?
The N8601 is slightly more silky as it is 80% Nylon and 20% Spandex. The N8608 strappy back leotard is 86% Nylon and 14% Lycra. - DDS Customer Service (01/28/2015)
Snowdrop4 12/29/2012 Age: 17 or under How Durable is the Mesh?
I received this leotard, and was super careful of the mesh when I tried it on. It fit just right, so I took it off, and discovered a section of the mesh in the front had torn away from the elastic band around it. Has this happened to anyone else? Do you think I just got a defect, or is this leotard just not very durable?
Please call customer service at 1-800-470-1664 for assistance on this possible defective item - DDS Customer Service (01/03/2013)
I haven't had any problems with the mesh yet. - Mara (01/24/2013)
On a scale of 0-10 it is about an 8.5 or a 9 it has very durable mesh ad is a super cute leotard! - Dancerdance (02/15/2013)
I find that anything with mesh is more delicate. Mesh is easily snagged and can easily get runs. Mesh is also hard to catch when sewing, so what you explained often happens to things like this made in great quantities and not hand sewn one by one. They probably just didn't catch the mistake, but it is a flaw. - Catherinedanae (06/10/2013)
Mine has remained in tact, surprisingly. I have been dancing for 15 years and worn many mesh leotards. Typically, mesh leos tend to tear at the seams or fray after washes. They aren't very durable in general. I think Ive just had good luck with this one (had it about 4 months and wear it at least once a week) - Lesmi (07/02/2013)
mine actually is very well made and fits well but i am still careful with it - Ballerinaaemily (08/21/2013)
