Dance skirts

Every girl needs special clothing to practice dancing. The main part of such clothing is usually a skirt, which will be different for each type of dance and have some characteristic features.

Such skirts are often sewn by hand or to order, getting an original product, ideally suited to the figure of its owner.

Such dances are liked by many women for their special rhythm, romance and sensuality. Skirts for such dances, which are called Standard, are usually presented in solid, floor-length models.

The most common styles of such skirts are flared or year. On the hem of many models, a shuttlecock is sewn, which can be in tone with the product or in a contrasting color.

Skirts for sports dances are unusually beautiful and effective. They often have a short length or a long cut, which provides an excellent opportunity to show slender legs.

Those who are interested in oriental dances are attracted by their ability to improve plasticity and adjust the figure.

The peculiarities of skirts for such dances can be called their airiness, the use of light fabrics for their sewing, as well as rich decor.

The most popular style is the "sun". Such a skirt is sewn long from translucent and flowing fabrics, among which organza, chiffon, silk and satin are especially popular. If the material is transparent, the model is made multi-layered. In the decoration of such a skirt, frills, decorative fabric inserts and an embroidered belt are used.

The "sun" skirt for oriental dances is more in demand by slender girls, and when they are full they prefer the "year" style. A skirt of this cut fits the figure in the hips and then expands.For its sewing, elastic fabrics are used, for example, supplex, knitwear or natural materials with the addition of lycra and other stretch fibers. Expansion of the skirt is provided by sewing in 4 or 6 gussets.

For belly dancing, straight skirts with a high slit located in the front on one leg or on the side are also used. This model fits the silhouette and has a graceful look.

Ballet classes attract girls who want to become plastic and flexible. Since the main elements of such dances are jumping and stretching, skirts for choreography should not hinder movement.

Ballerinas spend their training in short and light skirts of a simple cut, for which they use elastic fabric. Usually these are "sun" models that do not interfere with the development of movements. For performances, other skirts are used, the style of which is represented by a "tutu" or "chopin". They are sewn from materials that can keep their shape. It can be mesh, tulle, tulle and similar fabrics.

The main difference between these styles is their softness and rigidity. Often, a tutu skirt is sewn rigidly according to the "sun" or "half sun" pattern. It is distinguished by its short length and the presence of several layers of material. The Chopin skirt is softer and sewn longer.

Passionate girls who like their fiery rhythm are interested in such dances. When choosing a skirt for this type of dance, it is important to ensure freedom of movement and comfort, and at the same time choose a bright, attractive model.

An excellent choice would be a hip-hip short skirt that flares down a bit. No less popular are knee-length skirts that have high slits.

Products with an asymmetric cut and skirts of the "sun" style are in high demand. For their manufacture, elastic and lightweight fabrics are used, which are distinguished by bright colors. Tango lovers are attracted by long skirts that flow seductively and are trimmed with ruffles.

To move freely in the dance, most women choose voluminous skirts. These are skirts of the "sun" and "half-sun" styles, lush versions of several fabrics, as well as skirts in a large or small fold.

For sewing a skirt used for oriental dances, a suitable thin fabric is selected, then a pattern is created (most often in "sun" or "half-sun" styles), transferred to the fabric and the necessary details are cut out. Next, the side seams are sewn, leaving space for the zipper. The fabric for the belt is cut out separately and reinforced with non-woven fabric. A zipper is sewn into the skirt and a belt is sewn to it, and then the product is left to "hang down" for several days. The final stage of manufacturing will be sewing and, if planned, sewing the tape to the hem.

Sewing of a skirt for ballroom dancing is also often done in the "sun" style. The pattern is transferred to a suitable material, it is cut and then the side seam is sewn. Often there are several such skirts, for example, the lower one is made of lining fabric, the middle one is made of tulle and the upper one is made of satin. A separate piece is cut out of each fabric, then they are applied one on top of the other and sewn together in a belt. The bottom edge of the topskirt is often trimmed with a contrasting fabric or frill.
