Tamara Camisole Ballet Leotard • Dark Blue & Ice

Deep Navy, Ice Velvet & an Expressive Back

The YUMIKO Tamara Camisole Ballet Leotard in Dark Blue pairs a clean classical front with a beautifully open back. Smooth navy nylon meets pale Ice crushed velvet trim, creating a delicate contrast around the neckline, slender straps and low back. Front lining and a high-cut leg complete this lightweight design for class and rehearsal.

Composed in colour and expressive in shape, Tamara brings a little individuality to the everyday ballet wardrobe.

YUMIKO Tamara Camisole Ballet Leotard – Design & Performance

A softly curved front neckline and thin camisole straps frame the collarbone, keeping the front simple and uncluttered. Ice crushed velvet adds a lightly textured edge to the smooth Dark Blue nylon, bringing a subtle sheen to the otherwise understated design.

At the back, the neckline drops into a generous low curve, leaving much of the back open. A fine horizontal strap spans the upper back and meets the shoulder straps, creating Tamara’s distinctive arrangement of delicate lines around the opening. The contrasting trim follows the low back and side edges, while the sleeveless shape leaves the arms free for expressive movement.

The stretch nylon gives a close, comfortable fit with moderate compression and moderate support. It feels lightweight and breathable in wear, with the open back allowing airflow during studio sessions. In this navy colourway, the fabric offers good opacity, complemented by front lining. The high-cut leg finishes the silhouette with an elongated ballet line.

Why Dancers Love the YUMIKO Tamara

The Dance World Wear Profile highlights how each design fits, feels and functions in the studio. This profile reflects the YUMIKO Tamara Leotard in Dark Blue Nylon with Ice Crushed Velvet trim specifically; individual fit and feel may vary.

Studio Experience

Tamara combines a light feel with a comfortable sense of hold. The smooth nylon follows movement through the torso, while the low back leaves the upper body feeling open during port de bras and contemporary work. Moderate compression and support give the fitted silhouette a balanced feel through class and rehearsal.

The Dark Blue fabric’s good opacity and front lining are useful for dancers who enjoy an open-back design and want reassuring coverage through the body. The result is an easy balance of lightness, coverage and freedom of movement.

Yumiko Tamara Colour Story

Nylon Dark Blue

A deep navy with a smooth, even finish. Its rich tone creates a calm foundation for the pale trim and pairs naturally with soft pink tights, neutral warm-ups and flowing rehearsal skirts.

Crushed Velvet Ice

A cool, pale blue with a softly varied crushed velvet surface. It catches the light along the fine edges of the leotard, adding gentle definition to the neckline, straps and open back.
