Halter Neck Leotard with Open Back
Introducing our first high neck leotard with trims made from deadstock Cherry Noir velvet — giving this sleek halter neck design a subtle touch of luxury, while staying true to our sustainable ethos.
Designed with dancers, for dancers, the Halter Neck Leotard delivers the perfect fit you can rely on through every rehearsal, class, and performance.
We’ve tested this design on ballet bodies of every shape and size to ensure it flatters and supports without compromise. The halter neckline keeps everything secure (no slip, even during lifts and partner work), while the open back creates striking lines and complete freedom of movement.
A built-in bra shelf provides subtle extra support
Why dancers choose it:
• Luxury Cherry Noir velvet trim made from reclaimed deadstock fabric
• Perfect fit — secure halter neck and double snap closure that stays put
• No boob slip — reliable support through lifts, jumps, and pas de deux
• Tested on all ballet bodies — designed inclusively, for sizes XS-XL
• Built-in bra shelf — support without bulk
• Sustainably made in the UK from eco-conscious premium ECONYL regenerated yarn
