Edmonton Ballet Outfit Shopping Guide: A Dancerâs Guide to Finding the Perfect Leotard
Hey ladies! It's your girl, Amelia here, your go-to ballet blogger, back with a new post! Today we're tackling a crucial topic â outfitting your beautiful selves for the dance studio in our fabulous city of Edmonton.
Letâs face it, having the right outfit for dance class is like having the perfect weapon for battle! You want something stylish, functional and comfortable all at once. So, to help you strut your stuff in the studio, here's my rundown of the best shops in Edmonton to get your ballet needs sorted.
Where to shop for Ballet gear:
- Dancewear Depot (10823 82 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB) - This is the holy grail for dancewear in Edmonton, hands down! Youâll find every type of leotard, skirt and tights your heart desires â they've even got dance shoes, bags, and accessories, which means a one-stop shop for all your ballet essentials!
- Allegro Dancewear (7035 118 St NW, Edmonton, AB) â You know Allegroâs all about quality, and their range of leotards is incredible. From classic styles to trendy designs, theyâve got something to suit every dancer. I love their attention to detail â super comfy, top-notch quality. They have loads of skirts, tights and dance shoes as well.
- The Dance Store (5404 Calgary Tr NW, Edmonton, AB) - Another dance haven with an excellent selection of ballet gear and a super helpful team. This spot has a great vibe for finding that perfect leotard and it has those cute dance bag options â I always have to peek in the accessories section!
- Bloomingdales (10100 102 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB) - Not just for formal wear! Bloomingdaleâs dancewear selection has a lovely range of designer leotards and other goodies, so if you're looking for a special occasion outfit, or simply want something super stylish, then pop in and see what they have on offer!
Now that you know where to shop, here are some styling tips to keep in mind when youâre picking out your perfect ballet outfit:
- Donât be scared of colour! Just because ballet is often associated with pink and black, it doesn't mean you need to stick to these colours. Try adding a splash of colour with your leotard, or even explore fun patterns. Let your personality shine!
- Think about your body! A good fit is crucial. A leotard thatâs too tight wonât let you move freely. Consider the cut, length, and fit of the leotard to feel confident and empowered during class. Youâve got to be comfy!
- Accessorise! Adding some extra flair, with cute accessories like leg warmers, a stylish hair scrunchie, and even a dance bag thatâs as cute as a button. Your accessories can totally pull your whole look together!
Happy shopping, dancers! Now get out there and find your perfect outfit and unleash your inner ballerina in Edmonton!
