Question: Ensemble question for dancer/ballet!.!.what do you think!?!!?
I am starting Adult ballet classes after being away from dance for 20 years!. The company that has the classes said there isn't a standard dress code for adults just as long as it's dance clothes!.!.!.and the instructor can see my legs!.
So I have a light pink leotard, and was wondering if black tights w/black slippers will look stupid or ok enough!? I plan to wear a small black wrap as well since I have some tattoo's I will cover up while dancing!.

also-what do you think of the footless tights I see now!? Should I get those or just regular old tights!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Hm!.!.!. I don't have a lot of experience with this type of dress code, usually the places I've been to have a strict dress code!. However, I can tell you that with schools like this, you'll look fine!. Good for you, covering up the tattoos!. That was a professional move and I respect you for it!. I would try convertibles!. Really, they give you options as to whether you want to wear them like footless tights or like non-footless tights!. I agree with blue!.

Good luck! Feel free to contact me with further questions!.?Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would have to agree that if you wear the black tights over your leotard it will look fine!. also I think footless tights would look better if you fold them to your mid-calf, but this is how the dancers at my studio wear their tights the majority of the time, so I'm not sure about other studios!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you're wearing the tights over the leotard, that'll look fine!. I personally prefer footless or convertible tights for class, and think that footless looks best in black!. Aside from anything else, black canvases with crossover elastics look great on bare feet!Www@QuestionHome@Com
