Children's costumes for dancing

When a child is passionate about such a beautiful art form as dancing, the task of parents is to support his desire for success. Professional classes require special costumes in which your son or daughter will perform on stage. A well-chosen outfit will make the dance more impressive and will most fully reveal the stage image.

When sewing such an outfit, of course, the structural features of the child’s body and its proportion are taken into account. In addition, children's costume should not be too frank. Children's outfits for serious final performances are usually sewn to order in the studio, since it is very difficult to purchase such high-quality clothes in the store. In addition, in the store it is unrealistic to find the right number of costumes of certain sizes for the creative team. And individual tailoring, among other things, also guarantees the exclusivity of outfits.

As for the rehearsals, on them the main clothes of the girls is a swimsuit (the same color for all participants). The swimsuit allows the choreographer to fully appreciate the dance movements of his students. Often these clothes are complemented by skirts or leggings of the same color. In addition, you can find a swimsuit with elements already sewn. Training clothes for boys, unlike girls, almost do not differ from competitive costumes.

In kindergarten, kids also go dancing as part of music classes. This is very useful: the child receives physical activity, develops a beautiful posture, a sense of rhythm, overcomes shyness. And for performances at matinees, parents also need to take care of elegant dance costumes (The requirements for them, of course, will not be as high as for models for professional performances).

So, modern dance does not impose any specific requirements on the costume, while in some types of dance the costume performs a special role and has its own specifics.

For jazz, the key will be the brilliant look of the outfit. This can be a sequined vest for a boy and a sparkling girl's skirt. Defiantly bright, screaming costumes will be appropriate for this dance.

Hip-hop costumes are very creative. Often there is a combination of loose trousers with sleeveless jackets with a hood. A shiny shirt will come in handy again. This energetic dance involves a particularly durable and safe outfit (no need to wear scarves and chains).

For Russian folk dance girls will need characteristic sundresses, and boys will need elegant shirts and caps with the appropriate color scheme. It is clear that dances of other nations (for example, Caucasian) require appropriate national costumes.

As for ballet, young artists, first of all, should have pointe shoes and some comfortable elastic leotards. For girls, a bundle is still required. The colors of ballet costumes are mostly restrained - it is universal black plus pink, fleshly in their various combinations.

A separate topic - graceful oriental dances with their bewitching music.in which young artists participate. A classic outfit consists of a standard set of parts (each item has its own function), which can vary:

• Shiny bodice, often decorated with monistos, rhinestones, exquisite embroidery.
• Translucent thin fabric skirt, which seems to flow in a dance. It can be of different lengths (from model to knee to maxi), with or without a slit. The skirt gives a special mystery to the image of a young dancer, complementing her movements.
• Trousers as an alternative to a skirt look just as amazing. Moreover, this thing can be made independently - to connect two scarves-pareo at the waist and around the ankles.
• Belt or scarf. This element, tied over a skirt (trousers), is designed to emphasize the movement of the hips. An accessory with a monisto sewn to it provides the “tinkle” effect necessary in some dances. In addition, monisto makes the weight of the belt heavier, and it is easier for the dancer to feel the beat.
• Jewelry - a lot of shiny bracelets on arms and legs, massive earrings, interesting rings, multi-layer necklaces, hair accessories.

It is worth mentioning about thematic dances for children. A choreographer or music director in a kindergarten can stage a dance in the form of a costume scene. Carnival outfits, such as pirates or clowns, are useful here. Some productions include unique characters (for example, Disney characters), and buying such a costume at one time is irrational (especially if the baby does not appear on the stage, but simply at a matinee in a kindergarten). Therefore, you need to think ahead: is it possible to craft an outfit from improvised means. For example, the Princess can be portrayed using a colored wig, a crown and any elegant dress. An outfit of a pirate is combined from blindfolds, wide-open shirts, a black bandana and trousers.

Choose, of course, comfortable clothes that will not hamper the baby’s movements (choose elastic material) and thereby distract him during the performance. The fabric of the product should not cause irritation to delicate skin. Swimsuits for rehearsals should not rub, unnecessarily tighten the figure or, conversely, fall off the body.

In addition, it should be borne in mind that children grow quickly, and clothing should be tailored so that it is easy to adjust the size if necessary. As mentioned above, it is advisable for parents to sew a children's suit for performance on order so that it is not faceless and emphasizes the individuality of the child.

The modern, obviously, incendiary dance. Young artists dressed up in suits of the same style (tops and shorts), but in different colors (all colors - orange, green and pink - bright colors). The clothes are united by the same cheerful print, which starts from the chest of the T-shirt, and is also present on the straps. The dancers have identical hairstyles with hair accessories and flesh-colored shoes. These stage images fully convey the positive mood of the dance.
