dance costumes

Sequined stage outfits

Dance costumes are specialized garments designed for performance, typically emphasizing movement, visual impact, and the style of dance being performed.

They range from tutus and leotards in ballet to sequined bodysuits in competitive ballroom, from flowing skirts in folk dance to minimal athletic wear in contemporary pieces.

The dance costumes for the recital arrived a week before the show.

The term distinguishes performance attire from everyday practice clothes.
