What is the waist length of the skirt for size M/L
Hi,
My waist is 30" and normally wears a 38" self tie wrap skirt. Can I fit into the m/L?
If it's the m/L, what is the length of the skirt ( waist down towards knee)
This skirt is one size and measures 36 inches from edge to edge of the actual shirt material. - DDS Customer Service (08/10/2015)
Which color would look best with a seafoam colored leotard?
This skirt is offered in seafoam, as well, so that would be my suggestion. if you'd prefer another color, however, I would suggest staying with a neutral shade like black or white. - DDS Customer Service (09/19/2014)
I would suggest the seafoam color, which is what I wear with my seafoam leotard. White would also be pretty. - Dancergirl101 (04/01/2015)
Anonymous 07/10/2013 Age: 17 or under Is it good for turning in.
I like to wear skirts that are really light and good for turning in. First off is the material like really really light. And If I wear the skirt does it flow easily whenever I turn. Like will it flow up if I were to spin around myself would it also spin up so I could see my leotard showing as I'm turning?
The chiffon is made of 100% polyester. It is extremely light and airy. The skirt does not weight down so if you are making fast turns it will spin up so that the leotard is exposed. - DDS Customer Service (07/11/2013)
Yes, this material is very light, but it will not turn loose or move around as you turn. However, it may flow up . - Dancerina (09/02/2013)
The material is very light, when you turn it will flow up slightly. But because of the cut of the leotard it will not go straight out like a gathered skirt of circle skirt would. - Iloveleotards (10/05/2013)
YES it looks very nice and flows a little this is an awesome skirt - Dancinganimals (11/21/2013)
The fabric is not 'really' light and the skirt is pretty straight so there is not a lot of flare to it when you spin. But it does flutter a bit. I have not noticed that my leo shows when I turn in it. - Adultbeginner (03/22/2014)
Reba 03/29/2013 Ms Gulf Coast Age: 35 to 44 Can this skirt be ironed?
My daughter cut the tag out already. Most skirts look fine if I hang them to dry or machine dry after washing on delicate cycle, but we bought this one in white and it came out of the wash with creases that look worse than before I washed it. She has a black one and a blue one like this and they are fine, so I don't know what the deal is with this white one.
Use a steam iron. Smooth the skirt in place on your ironing board. Use a cotton pillowcase for press cloth, do not worry that you have a doubled piece of cotton fabric, place the pillowcase over it, iron.. Remove the press cloth and turn and smooth another section of the skirt, place the cloth back on top. Iron. Etc.
Avoid touching the polyester gown directly with the hot iron. - DDS Customer Service (03/29/2013)
The tag says that you should cool iron and line dry. I always hand wash this skirt and line dry it. So far I've never had to iron it. Good luck :) - Tinydancer500 (04/13/2013)
I suggest not to iron the skirt or use a very light level of hot. - Dancerina (09/02/2013)
I ironed my skirt right out of the package - it can be ironed on a fairly high setting and takes the iron well. I have the black skirt. not sure if the white is exactly the same fabric. Try using a low heat first and use a damp dish towel over your skirt to protect it from scorching. I was able to use a pretty high heat and no damp towel on the black and it worked great. - Ladancer1 (11/18/2013)
If you try to iron chiffon be sure to use a 'press cloth' OVER it. A pillow case, or a sheet would work, use a low heat and test only one area for a short time until you figure out if it is working. It would scorch or melt otherwise.
Good luck! You might try washing it (without a spin cycle) and smoothing it out on a counter to get it flat. - Adultbeginner (03/22/2014)
Tags say yes, but I haven't tried it. I would hand wash and leave it pretty wet then hang to dry over the tub or shower. The weight of the water will sometimes take out the creases. I had the same problem but after it hung for a while they came out. The tag does say you can use a COOL iron. Even though I hate them I've learned to just leave those tags on. Hopes this helps. - Sinasgirl (06/28/2014)
Ballher 02/11/2013 Age: 17 or under Am I to tall for this product
I'm 5'11" and was wondering if this would cover a couple inches from the bottom of my leotard. I like to wear it on my waist so would that also be possible given my hieght?
This item is 15" in back, 11 1/2" in front. - DDS Customer Service (02/11/2013)
I think it would, but honestly it depends on whether or not you have a long torso and if you have bigger hips. I'm pretty short and skinny (5'1", 98 lbs) and the skirt fits me really well, but I've seen taller and wider girls from my studio wear this skirt and it still looks great! I'd recommend going to a dance retailer where they have other sizes of this skirt, or you can try it on to see if it fits right. Hope this helped :) - Tinydancer500 (04/13/2013)
It all depends on your body type. The length of the skirt from the waist down is approximately 14 in. - Dancerina (09/02/2013)
Not sure if this helps, but I am 5'5", a size medium leotards (hip/waist measurements), and it goes down 2-3 inches below my bottom when I wear it just above my hipbones. I think it also depends on how your bottom is shaped. I'm kinda medium in that respect. Maybe take a measuring tape and see how far it would go? I think they have the length of the front and back on the description section. - Debc (09/06/2013)
I am 5'8" and the skirt falls two inches below my bottom (which is pretty small) I'd say give it a try and return it or give it as a gift if it doesn't fit. - Iloveleotards (10/05/2013)
the skirt is approx. 12 inches long (size small). I'm very short so I measured it. About 3/4 inch longer in back. Hope this is helpful. - Sinasgirl (06/28/2014)
Victoria 02/10/2013 Age: 25 to 34 Would this be ideal for my 12 year old daughter?
She is twelve and 66.4 pounds, she really wants this, is it good for her?
She may want to purchase MS12CH. The child Large is a size 12. - DDS Customer Service (02/11/2013)
I think she would defiantly like this skirt. Just make sure you get a small size. The thing about dance clothes is that you just have to keep trying them until you find the perfect type you like. This skirt has a very cheap price for a ballet skirt, and if she likes it then it was money well spent, and if she doesn't like it then she has a better understanding of what she wants in a ballet skirt, which will help her pick out a new shirt! - Ballerinachic (04/02/2013)
The full waist of the skirt measures 36". If your daughter's waist is between 24" and 29", the skirt would be great for her to allow room for the skirt to wrap. 30" waist would be cutting it close. I don't recommend this skirt for a waistline larger than 31". These skirts are beautiful and will probably last her a long time. - Ladancer1 (11/18/2013)
It's up to the both of you. I'd buy it for my daughter as long as the size is right. The small is about 12 inches long from the tie and skirt material 3 ft. wide wrap. - Sinasgirl (06/28/2014)
I have a black leotard and was wondering if the white skirt is see through or not?
Thank you
It isn't completely see through, but if wearing a black leotard, you will probably see a small bit of the leotard's color through the skirt. Most crepe skirts work like that, but you never know so good question. Not completely, but especially in light, you can see some. - Lvilledancer (02/10/2013)
Yes, the material is somewhat see through. - Dancerina (09/02/2013)
