Question: Which is better for a leotard!? Cotton or silky material!?
I'm going to order a new leotard in a little while and I found a site that sells long torso leotards, which is great because I'm slim and 5'9 and all my other leotards girths were not long enough!.!.!.but this site offers 3 different types, Cotton, silky, or tencel!. I've never heard of tencel!.!.!.but with my other leotards, I never had an option of the material, I just ordered the style I needed and it came in cotton!. But would silky or tencel be better because they're thinner than cotton and would they stretch more for my long torso!? I don't know!.!.!.I'm not smart enough to figure out which is the best!.!.!.haha so help!. :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

I agree with the cotton, the silk feels nice and is pretty, but when you are sweating, all you care about is letting your skin breathe! (and not getting pimples)!.

Good Choice!

I think cotton would be better just because it soaks up sweat and breaths!. I have a velvet leotard and it sucks to wear in the summer because it's so hot!. I only wear in in the winter!. So I'd choose cotton just for those reasons!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I prefer cotton b/c they let your skin breathe, especially when you sweat!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
