Size & Fit Advice

Roch Valley sizing: Choose using the size options and the relevant Roch Valley size guide on this page. Compare body measurements with the chart; use any age description as a guide rather than the only deciding factor.

Measure waist and hips: Measure around the natural waist and the fullest part of the hips, keeping the tape level and comfortably close without pulling it tight.

Fit: The outer shorts have a relaxed, draped shape, while the inner shorts sit closer to the legs. The wide waistband should sit comfortably without digging in or slipping. The inner hems should feel comfortable around the upper thighs.

Try them as you will wear them: If they will be worn over a leotard, include it when trying on. Sit, bend and lift each knee to check for pinching or bunching. If waist and hip measurements point to different sizes, or fall between sizes, ask our team for help.

Roch Valley Children's Size & Fit Advice

Roch Valley children's dancewear uses traditional named sizes including Tots, Infants, Junior, Maids and Petite. For general garments, use height as the main starting measurement and weight as a secondary guide. Roch Valley skirts use a separate waist-based sizing system, so always check the skirt chart below.

Children's Dancewear

Roch Valley Children's Garments Size Chart

Compare height and weight to find the best starting size. Height is the primary measurement, with weight helping to confirm the fit when a dancer falls between two sizes.

Roch Valley Size	Fit Name	Height cm	Weight kg
Size 1	Tots	86–100	13–17
Size 1B	Infants	100–116	16–22
Size 2	Junior	116–130	21–28
Size 3A	Maids	130–140	28–35
Size 3	Petite	140–152	35–45
Size 4	Small	150–160	45–55

Dance World Tip

If height and weight suggest different Roch Valley sizes, prioritise height first, then consider the child's build and the garment style. Dancewear should sit neatly without restricting natural movement.

Children's Dance Skirts

Roch Valley Children's Skirt Size Chart

Roch Valley skirts use a separate waist-based sizing system. Use the actual waist measurement as the main reference, with height and chest helping to confirm overall proportions.

Skirt Size	Height cm	Chest cm	Waist cm
18"	104–110	59	55
20"	116–124	62	58
22"	128–134	67	61
24"	140–146	73	65

Dance World Skirt Tip

For Roch Valley skirts, use the waist measurement first. The 18", 20", 22" and 24" labels are the Roch Valley skirt sizes; the measurement columns are the more useful guide to actual fit.

Dance World Measuring Guide

How to Measure for Roch Valley Children's Dancewear

Measure over underwear, a leotard or close-fitting clothing. Ask the child to stand naturally and use a flexible tape measure without pulling it tightly against the body.

Height

Key Garment Measurement

Stand straight without shoes, with feet flat on the floor. Measure vertically from the floor to the top of the head.

Height is the main starting measurement in the Roch Valley children's garment chart.

Weight

Use the child's current weight as a secondary reference alongside height. This can help when the dancer sits close to the boundary between two garment sizes.

Chest

Measure around the fullest part of the chest, keeping the tape straight and level around the body without pulling it tight.

Chest is included in the Roch Valley skirt chart and provides a useful secondary check for overall proportions.

Waist

Key Skirt Measurement

Measure around the natural waist, usually the narrowest part of the torso. Keep the tape comfortably close and level.

For Roch Valley skirts, compare this measurement with the waist column in the dedicated skirt chart.

Girth

For fitted leotards, start at one shoulder, measure down the front of the torso, through the crotch and back to the same shoulder in one continuous loop.

Girth is not part of the Roch Valley chart above, but it can still provide a useful additional check when fitting one-piece dancewear.

Roch Valley Fit Guidance

Roch Valley uses more than one sizing system across its children's range. General dancewear follows the traditional Size 1 / 1B / 2 / 3A / 3 / 4 progression, while selected skirts use 18" / 20" / 22" / 24" sizing. Always use the chart that corresponds to the product rather than converting directly between the two systems.

Dance World Fit Note Roch Valley size charts and Dance World recommendations are intended as a guide. Children's proportions can vary, and fit may also change with garment design, fabric and stretch. Where an individual Roch Valley product carries its own fit advice, use that recommendation alongside this chart.

Best For: Dance classes • Gymnastics warm-ups • Conditioning • Recreational training

Description

A Little Flow, an Extra Layer

Roch Valley Double Layered Dance and Gymnastics Shorts bring a relaxed shape to the practice wardrobe, with a flowing outer layer and a closer inner short underneath. The curved, overlapping hems create a soft outline around the legs, while a wide elasticated waistband finishes the gathered top. They are easy to pair with a favourite leotard or a fitted practice top. This layered design suits dancers and gymnasts who enjoy a little extra leg coverage with a looser outer silhouette.

Roch Valley Double Layered Shorts – Design & Performance

The 95% polyester and 5% elastane fabric brings some stretch to a design that combines two different shapes. The outer shorts fall loosely from the waistband, while the inner pair sits closer to the legs. This gives the garment its distinctive balance of a draped surface and a more fitted layer beneath.

A wide elasticated waistband gathers the fabric evenly around the waist. Below it, curved outer panels overlap at the sides, creating rounded edges that open with movement. The inner shorts remain underneath as the outer fabric lifts, adding coverage across the seat and upper thighs without changing the flowing appearance of the top layer.

The plain, unembellished finish makes these shorts easy to coordinate with patterned or sparkling leotards. The back has a gently flared outline, with a simple curved hem. Worn over a leotard or with a practice top, they offer a versatile option for dance classes, gymnastics warm-ups and conditioning sessions.

Try the Full Outfit

Try the shorts over the leotard you plan to wear, then bend and lift each knee to check for bunching.

Balance the Shape

Pair the flowing outer shorts with a fitted practice top for a simple, coordinated class outfit.

Check the Class Kit

Ask the teacher or coach whether this looser outer style suits the class, apparatus work or display.

Dry Both Layers

After washing, let air reach the inner shorts as well as the outer fabric before packing them away.

The Dance World Wear Profile offers a simple guide to fit, feel and movement. This profile describes the Roch Valley Double Layered Shorts; individual fit and feel may vary.

Who Are the Roch Valley Double Layered Shorts Best For?

These shorts suit dancers and gymnasts who prefer a flowing outer shape with a closer layer underneath. They are a useful choice for adding upper-leg coverage over a leotard, or building a practice outfit with a fitted top. Their understated design also pairs easily with more decorative dancewear.

Product Highlight

✦ The Layer Underneath Makes the Difference

The outer panels give these shorts their flowing shape, while the built-in inner shorts provide coverage beneath the overlapping hems. Both layers form one garment, so the relaxed look comes with an inner short already in place.

DANCE WORLD Parent Guide

How Should Double Layered Shorts Fit?

The outer layer is designed to sit loosely, so a little fabric around the legs is part of the shape. The waistband should feel comfortable without digging in or slipping, and the inner shorts should sit smoothly around the upper thighs. Check waist and hip measurements against the relevant size guide when choosing.

Judge the fit by the waistband and inner shorts. If either feels tight, the loose outer fabric does not make up for it. Ask your child to sit, bend and lift each knee, checking that the inner hems do not pinch. If measurements fall between sizes, ask our team for advice.
