Why Choose Bodile Dancewear?

BODILE is an Australian ballet dancewear brand founded by Rebecca Morrice Williams, with its design studio in Perth. Its name combines “body” with Odile from Swan Lake, reflecting a connection to ballet that runs through the collection.

At Dance World, we were drawn to the way Bodile brings colour, texture and considered detailing into everyday studio dressing. Mesh introduces transparency, velvet adds depth, and contrasting panels give familiar ballet silhouettes a distinctive character.

Our selection brings together leotards and skirts that can be coordinated or mixed in your own way. Whether you prefer a softly tonal outfit or a more expressive combination, Bodile offers a fresh way to build your ballet wardrobe.

Find Your Bodile Ballet Leotard

  • Bodile Ophelia Black Dahlia ballet leotard worn from the front, showing floral flocking, a pinched neckline and waist ribbon.

    Camisole Leotards

    Fine Straps • Open Shoulder Line

    Fine shoulder straps frame the neckline and leave the shoulders uncovered. This familiar ballet silhouette allows details such as shaped necklines, decorative bodices and expressive backs to take focus. Explore different fabrics and colour combinations to find your preferred finish.

    Styles to explore: Bella and Ophelia.

  • Square-Neck Tank Leotards

    Defined Neckline • Balanced Lines

    A square neckline and broader shoulder straps create a clearly framed upper body while leaving the arms uncovered. Individual designs bring their own character through panel placement, back shaping and fabric combinations, from softly coordinated colours to more pronounced contrasts.

    Styles to explore: Sofia.

  • Three-Quarter Sleeve Leotards

    Mid-Length Sleeves • Framed Upper Body

    Sleeves finishing between the elbow and wrist create a distinctive outline through the shoulders and arms. Fabric choice influences the overall effect, with sheer mesh introducing transparency and textured details adding definition. Explore neckline and back variations to find the coverage you prefer.

    Styles to explore: Saskia.

  • Long Sleeve Leotards

    Full-Length Sleeves • Continuous Arm Line

    Full-length sleeves extend the silhouette from shoulder to wrist. Different fabrics, necklines and back shapes give each design its own character, allowing you to choose the balance of coverage, texture and transparency that suits your studio wardrobe.

    Styles to explore: Valentina and Sofia Long Sleeve.

Understanding Bodile Fabrics, Texture & Feel

  • LEOPREME®

    Breathable • Pilling Resistant • Supportive Stretch • High Compresion

    LEOPREME is Bodile’s Italian-made leotard fabric, combining a soft-touch, demi-matte finish with stretch and shape retention. It provides a smooth foundation beneath decorative panels.

    Composition: 80% nylon / 20% Lycra.

  • SUPRABLIME®

    Featherweight • Sheer • Ultra Breathable

    SUPRABLIME is Bodile’s soft Italian stretch mesh, used for sheer detailing, sleeves and flowing skirts. Its transparency and light drape create a different effect from the opaque body fabric of a leotard.

    Composition: 80% nylon / 20% elastane.

  • ECOSCULPT®

    Breathable • Compresion • Sculpting Feel

    ECOSCULPT combines ECONYL regenerated nylon with Lycra for a smooth, stretchy fabric with a supportive feel. The regenerated nylon content distinguishes it from Bodile’s conventional nylon-based leotard fabrics.

    Composition: 78% ECONYL regenerated nylon / 22% Lycra.

  • Velvet Details

    Soft Texture • Colour Depth • Gentle Sheen

    Velvet adds a softly textured surface and depth of colour to selected Bodile bodices and skirts. It creates a visible contrast beside smooth fabrics or sheer mesh. Zara brings this texture into a complete short ballet skirt.

Bodile Dancewear FAQs

What is Bodile known for?

Bodile is known for ballet leotards and dancewear combining expressive colours, distinctive silhouettes and details such as sheer mesh, velvet and corset-style panelling.

Is Bodile an Australian brand?

Yes. Bodile was founded by Rebecca Morrice Williams and operates from a design studio in Perth, Western Australia. Manufacturing locations vary, so check individual product information for country-of-origin details.

Is Bodile suitable for adult ballet beginners?

Yes. Choose the neckline, coverage and skirt length you feel comfortable wearing. Check your ballet school’s dress code if your class requires a particular uniform.

Are Bodile leotards and skirts sold together?

Not automatically. Begin with current body measurements and pay particular attention to girth. The larger size may be more suitable if you fall between sizes, have a longer torso, are broader through the shoulders or are choosing a firmer lace or compression design.

Are Bodile leotards and skirts sold together?

Leotards and skirts are sold separately at Dance World. This allows you to choose the size and colour of each piece and combine different silhouettes.

How should I wash Bodile dancewear?

Follow the garment’s care label. Bodile generally recommends a cool hand wash with mild detergent and drying in the shade. Avoid tumble drying, protect mesh from fingernail snags and avoid pulling on delicate panels when dressing.
